Very proud of our newly published article on single-spin detection by microwave photon counting! https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-023-06097-2


Superconducting circuit enabling the manipulation of a Schrödinger cat qubit

ABOUT
The RobustSuperQ project aims at accelerating French R&D on superconducting and hybrid qubits protected by construction against decoherence. It is part of a post-transmon strategy, alternative to surface code, in which the French teams are at the forefront. It brings together all of these teams around three complementary concepts: the Cat-code architecture, spin qubits implanted on superconducting circuits, and topologically protected superconducting qubits.
RobustSuperQ is a PEPR,
a priority programme for research and equipment, part of the French Quantum Plan
WHAT WE DO

Assembling a superconducting circuit in cavity
@N.Hoppenot/ENS Lyon
We accelerate the French R&D on robust superconducting and hybrid qubits protected against decoherence. The project is organized into work packages (WP)
- WP0: Bricks of components and methods for WP1, 2 and 3.
- WP1: Cat-qubits encoding information in quantum superpositions of coherent microwave states.
- WP2: Dopant Spin qubits, encoding information in electronic and nuclear spins.
- WP3: Development of new qubits with topological protection.
- WP4: Creation and modernization of two manufacturing platforms* for superconducting qubits, and project coordination.

*Platforms: The two technical poles in the field, Ile-de-France and Grenoble, will make a qualitative leap in terms of resources, via the creation at CEA-Université Paris-Saclay of a new dedicated platform, and the acquisition of fabrication and characterization tools in the two poles. The resources will be pooled and interoperable, and the synergy of know-how and associated processes will be maximized.
