ZZ-Free Two-Qubit CZ Gate Based on Fluxonium Coupler

ORAL

Abstract

In this talk, we propose an adiabatic, coupler-flux-biased controlled-Z (CZ) gate that is implemented between two transmon qubits coupled via a fluxonium, an architecture we call T-F-T. The coupling mediated by fluxonium allows the ZZ interaction to be completely canceled while the two transmons are outside of the straddling regime. This makes the architecture less susceptible to the microwave crosstalk and frequency crowding. We experimentally verified that complete ZZ cancellation is possible with two-qubits biased in the off-straddling regime. In addition, we will discuss characterization and optimization of CZ gate fidelity.
