Coherence correlations in planar fluxonium qubits

ORAL

Abstract

Superconducting qubits have demonstrated promise as a technology with which to build a quantum computer. A current roadblock to creating such a processor with these circuits is their finite coherence time, which limits gate fidelity. Fluxonium qubits have exhibited long coherence times and could be an avenue towards a high-coherence quantum processor. This work studies data on the circuit parameters, coherence, and single-qubit gate fidelities of planar aluminum-on-silicon fluxoniums. We consider data gathered for the purpose of collecting statistics on device performance, understanding how measured coherence times correlate with device parameters and achievable gate fidelities, and identifying the dominant loss mechanisms limiting device coherence.
