We present a planar qubit design based on a superconducting circuit that we call concentric transmon. While employing a straightforward fabrication process using Al evaporation and lift-off lithography, we observe qubit lifetimes and…
A number of superconducting qubits, such as the transmon or the phase qubit, have an energy level structure with small anharmonicity. This allows for convenient access of higher excited states with similar frequencies. However, special care…

Superconducting qubits are solid state electrical circuits fabricated using techniques borrowed from conventional integrated circuits. They are based on the Josephson tunnel junction, the only non-dissipative, strongly non-linear circuit…
Superconducting transmon qubits based on hybrid superconductor-semiconductor Josephson junctions (gatemons) offer gate tunability, but their relaxation times remain well below those of state-of-the-art transmons, and the origin of this…
Understanding and suppressing sources of decoherence is a leading challenge in building practical quantum computers. In superconducting qubits, low frequency charge noise is a well-known decoherence mechanism that is effectively suppressed…

State-of-the-art transmon qubits rely on large capacitors which systematically improves their coherence due to reduced surface loss participation. However, this approach increases both the footprint and the parasitic cross-coupling and is…
