Suppression of Qubit Crosstalk in a Tunable Coupling Superconducting Circuit

Quantum Physics 2019-11-13 v2

Abstract

Parasitic crosstalk in superconducting quantum devices is a leading limitation for quantum gates. We demonstrate the suppression of static ZZ crosstalk in a two-qubit, two-coupler superconducting circuit, where the frequency of a tunable coupler can be adjusted such that the ZZ interaction from each coupler destructively interfere. We verify the crosstalk elimination with simultaneous randomized benchmarking, and use a parametrically activated iSWAP interaction to achieve a Bell state preparation fidelity of 98.5% and a iSWAP\sqrt{\textrm{iSWAP}} gate fidelity of 94.8% obtained via quantum process tomography.
