Superconducting Qubits: A Short Review

Superconducting qubits are solid state electrical circuits fabricated using techniques borrowed from conventional integrated circuits. They are based on the Josephson tunnel junction, the only non-dissipative, strongly non-linear circuit element available at low temperature. In contrast to microscopic entities such as spins or atoms, they tend to be well coupled to other circuits, which make th...

Superconducting phase qubits

Experimental progress is reviewed for superconducting phase qubit research at the University of California, Santa Barbara. The phase qubit has a potential advantage of scalability, based on the low impedance of the device and the ability to microfabricate complex “quantum integrated circuits”. Single and coupled qubit experiments, including qubits coupled to resonators, are reviewed along with ...

Superconducting Qubits Ii : Decoherence

This is an introduction to elementary decoherence theory as it is typically applied to superconducting qubits. Abbreviations: SQUID – superconducting quantum interference device; qubit – quantum bit; TSS – two state system
