In quantum information processing, two primary research directions have emerged: one based on discrete variables (DV) and the other on the structure of quantum states in a continuous-variable (CV) space. It is increasingly recognized that integrating these two approaches could unlock new potentials, overcoming the inherent limitations of each. Here...
We develop a compact four-port superconducting switch with tunable operating frequency in the range from 4.8 to 7.3 GHz. Isolation between channels exceeds 20 dB over a bandwidth of several hundred megahertz, exceeding 40 dB at some frequencies. The footprint of the device is 80×420μm2. The tunability requires only a global flux bias without either...

By performing a unique method of calculating the electronic-spin state of overdoped LSCO an...
When a magnetic moment is embedded in a metal, it captures nearby itinerant electrons to form a so-called Kondo cloud. When magnetic impurities are sufficiently dense that their individual clouds overlap with each other they are expected to form a correlated electronic ground state. This is known as Kondo condensation and can be considered a magnet...

As a step toward realizing the quantum current standard, single-electron pumping of parallel SINIS turnstiles was performed. Eleven SINIS turnstiles were fabricated on the same chip, and the number of operating SINIS turnstiles was increased one by one. As a result, 11 turnstiles were operated simultaneously up to 100 MHz, resulting in a pumped dc...
Single electron pumping by a SINIS turnstile is investigated up to 1 GHz in various conditions to realize a quantum current standard. A standard deviation of the pumping current at 100 MHz is about 10-4 at base temperature of a dilution refrigerator. As expected, the plateau of the pumped current degrades as temperature increases because of the the...
We infer the high-frequency flux noise spectrum in a superconducting flux
qubit by studying the decay of Rabi oscillations under strong driving

We report relaxation times T1 in excess of 10 mus in aluminum persistent-current qubits (flux qubits), read out by a switching dc SQUID. At the sweet spot in flux bias, spin-echo refocusing gives a relaxation-limited coherence time T2=2T1. The free-induction decay time constant T2^* reaches 2.5 mus. Detuning the quantization axis away from this opt...

When the quantum oscillations [Pashkin et al., Nature 421, 823 (2003)] and the conditional gate operation [Yamamoto et al., Nature 425, 941 (2003)] were demonstrated using superconducting charge qubits, the charge qubits were coupled capacitively, where the coupling was always on and the coupling strength was not tunable. This fixed coupling, howev...
We discuss a practical design for tunably coupling a pair of flux qubits via the quantum inductance of a third high-frequency qubit. The design is particularly well suited for realizing a recently proposed microwave-induced parametric coupling scheme. This is attractive because the qubits can always remain at their optimal points. Furthermore, we w...
