Mitigation of Quasiparticle Loss in Superconducting Qubits by Phonon Scattering
Mitigation of Quasiparticle Loss in Superconducting Qubits by Phonon Scattering
Quantum error correction will be an essential ingredient in realizing fault-tolerant quantum computing. However, most correction schemes rely on the assumption that errors are sufficiently uncorrelated in space and time. In superconducting qubits, this assumption is drastically violated in the presence of ionizing radiation, which creates bursts of high-energy phonons …
