Demonstration of High-Fidelity Gates in a Strongly Anharmonic with Long-Coherence C-Shunt Flux Qubit

We demonstrate high-fidelity single-qubit gates on a C-shunt flux qubit that simultaneously combines a large anharmonicity ($\mathcal{A}/2\pi=848~\mathrm{MHz}$) with long relaxation time ($T_1 = 23~\mu\text{s}$). The large anharmonicity significantly suppresses leakage to higher energy levels, enabling fast and precise microwave control. Using DRAG pulses and randomized benchmarking, the qubit achieves gate fidelities exceeding 99.9\%, highlighting the capability of C-shunt flux qubits for robust and high-performance quantum operations. These results establish them as a promising platform for scalable quantum information processing.

Fabrication and Characterization of Impedance-transformed Josephson Parametric Amplifier

In this paper, we introduce a method of using a double-layer resist lift-off process to prepare the capacitor dielectric layer for fabricating impedance-engineered Josephson parametric amplifiers (IMPAs). Compared with traditional techniques, this method enhances fabrication success rate, accelerates production. The IMPA we made experimentally achieves an instantaneous bandwidth over 950 (600) MHz with a gain exceeding 10 (14) dB, along with saturation input power of -115 dBm and near quantum-limited noise. We demonstrate the negligible backaction from the IMPA on superconducting qubits, resulting in no significant degradation of the relaxation time and coherence time of the qubits. The IMPA improves the signal-to-noise ratio from 1.69 to 14.56 and enables the amplification chain to achieve a high quantum efficiency with $\eta \approx 0.26$, making it a critical necessity for large-scale quantum computation.

Tunable coupling of a quantum phononic resonator to a transmon qubit with flip-chip architecture

A hybrid system with tunable coupling between phonons and qubits shows great potential for advancing quantum information processing. In this work, we demonstrate strong and tunable coupling between a surface acoustic wave (SAW) resonator and a transmon qubit based on galvanic-contact flip-chip technique. The coupling strength varies from $2\pi\times$7.0 MHz to -$2\pi\times$20.6 MHz, which is extracted from different vacuum Rabi oscillation frequencies. The phonon-induced ac Stark shift of the qubit at different coupling strengths is also shown. Our approach offers a good experimental platform for exploring quantum acoustics and hybrid systems.
