Superconducting metamaterials are a promising resource for quantum information science. In the context of circuit QED, they provide a means to engineer on-chip, novel dispersion relations and a band structure that could ultimately be…
The problem of definition of effective material parameters (permittivity and permeability) for composite layers containing only one-two parallel arrays of complex-shaped inclusions is discussed. Such structures are of high importance for…
In this paper it is shown how the equivalent circuit parameters of a MEMS resonator can be simply obtained from an eigenfrequency simulation. Additionally, it is demonstrated that the Q-factor as a result of support losses in a MEMS…
The correct numerical calculation of the resonance characteristics and, principally, the quality factor $Q$ of contemporary photonic and plasmonic resonant systems is of utmost importance, since $Q$ defines the bandwidth and affects…
The overall, loaded quality factor $Q_\mathrm{L}$ quantifies the loss of energy stored in a resonator. Here we discuss on general grounds how $Q_\mathrm{L}$ of a planar microwave resonator made of a conventional superconductor should depend…
We extend effective medium theory (EMT) to time-modulated, frequency-dispersive acoustic metamaterials with multiple resonances. While previous studies focused on non-dispersive or single-resonance systems, advances in programmable…
Metamaterial effective parameters may exhibit freedom from typical dispersion constraints. For instance, the emergence of a magnetic response in arrays of split-ring resonators for long wavelengths cannot be attained in a passive continuous…
The loss in superconducting microwave resonators at low-photon number and low temperatures is not well understood but has implications for achievable coherence times in superconducting qubits. We have fabricated single-layer resonators with…
We present an effective-medium model for calculating the frequency-dependent effective permittivity $\epsilon(\omega)$ and permeability $\mu(\omega)$ of metamaterial composites containing spherical particles with arbitrary permittivity and…
The control of material loss mechanisms is playing an increasingly important role for improving coherence times of superconducting quantum devices. Such material losses can be characterized through the measurement of planar superconducting…
The development of fault-tolerant quantum computers based on superconducting circuits faces critical challenges in qubit coherence, connectivity, and scalability. This review establishes metamaterials, artificial structures with on-demand…
Manipulating the propagation of electromagnetic waves through sub-wavelength sized artificial structures is the core function of metamaterials. Resonant structures, such as split ring resonators, play the role of artificial "atoms" and…
New expressions are derived to calculate the Q factor of a radiating device. The resulting relations link Q based on the frequency change of the input impedance at the input port (Qx, Qz) with expressions based solely on the current…
Metamaterials can enable peculiar static and dynamic behavior (such as negative effective mass density, dynamical stiffness, and Poisson's ratio) due to their geometry rather than their chemical composition. The geometry of these…
One of the most crucial steps in creating practical quantum computers is designing scalable and efficient superconducting qubits. Coherence times, connections between individual qubits, and reduction of environmental noise are critical…
Metamaterials-or artificial electromagnetic materials-can create media with properties unattainable in nature, but mitigating dissipation is a key challenge for their further development. Here, we demonstrate a low-loss metamaterial by…
Although optical metamaterials that show artificial magnetism are mesoscopic systems, they are frequently described in terms of effective material parameters. But due to intrinsic nonlocal (or spatially dispersive) effects it may be…
The quality factor and energy decay time of superconducting resonators have been measured as a function of material, geometry, and magnetic field. Once the dissipation of trapped magnetic vortices is minimized, we identify surface two-level…
Resonant modes determine the response of electromagnetic devices, including dielectric and plasmonic resonators. Relying on the degrees of freedom that metamaterials provide, this contribution shows how to design, at will, the resonant…
Scattering of electromagnetic (EM) waves by many small particles, embedded in a given medium, is studied. Physical properties of the particles are described by their boundary impedances. The limiting equation is obtained for the effective…
