From Superconducting Qubits to Microwave Photonics

This talk will review recent progress in using superconducting circuits, traditionally designed as quantum bits for quantum computation, to generate, manipulate, and measure microwave photons. Particular emphasis will be given to the synthesis of non-classical quantum states and the nonlinear coupling of highly coherent harmonic oscillator modes. Finally, the frontiers of microwave photonics and their application to multi-dimensional quantum information processing will be discussed.
