High-density cryogenic wiring for superconducting qubits

ORAL

Abstract

As superconducting quantum processors continue to scale up in size, it becomes increasingly challenging to route the required number of control lines through a dilution refrigerator to the qubit chip. In this presentation, we will discuss our efforts to develop high-density fridge wiring for use in next-generation quantum annealers. Our wiring solution is based on flexible multi-channel cables with a stripline geometry, designed to achieve low crosstalk and moderate bandwidth. We will describe the electrical performance of these cables, as well as other design considerations such as thermal management.
