Towards High-Fidelity Gates in the Soft Zero-Pi Qubit
ORAL
Abstract
The zero-pi qubit [1, 2] is intrinsically protected against relaxation and dephasing, making it a promising candidate for high-fidelity quantum processing. A recent implementation of the “soft” zero-pi circuit showed experimental evidence of protection and achieved logical operations via a Raman transition [3]. Here, we address some outstanding challenges facing the soft zero-pi qubit. For example, we achieve faster gates via a fast-flux drive through an inductively-coupled bias line. The improvements we made allow for longer coherence times and higher fidelity gates.
