group
Dr. Tom Heitmann
Abstract: Phonon bursts in the substrate of a superconducting qubit array with energy above the superconducting gap can produce dissipative quasiparticle excitations in the electrodes of many qubits on a chip, leading to correlated errors between qubits. Mitigating… Show more
