Characterizing Granular Aluminum in Superconducting Circuits

ORAL

Abstract

High kinetic inductance materials are promising candidates for implementing large inductances which are crucial for several proposed qubit designs. These materials also allow for a distributed nonlinear element, opening the door for a new family of qubits. Here, we present a new method to deposit granular aluminum in addition to spectroscopic and time domain measurements of granular aluminum-based superconducting qubits.
