Example Sentences
The oscillators used in the study consist of thin strips of superconducting material patterned on an insulating substrate to form microwave resonators, a technology fully compatible with the most advanced superconducting quantum computers.
"Our community has often tried to keep superconducting elements away from quantum oscillators, not to scramble the fragile quantum states. In this work, we have challenged this paradigm. By embedding a controlling device at the heart of the oscillator we were able to avoid scrambling the many quantum states while at the same time being able to control and manipulate them. As a result, we demonstrated a novel set of gate operations performed at very high speed," says Simone Gasparinetti.
Attempts to combine harmonic oscillators with control systems such as superconducting quantum systems have been made but have been hindered by the so-called Kerr-effect.
Last year, IBM unveiled a computer with 1121 qubits based on tiny superconducting circuits, up from a 127-qubit version released in 2021.
These devices can take many forms, such as a collection of superconducting circuits, or a lattice of atoms or ions held in place by lasers or electric fields.
