Mechanically induced correlated errors on superconducting qubits with relaxation times exceeding 0.4 ms

Tobias Kippenberg, Amir Youssefi, Marco Scigliuzzo, Mahdi Chegnizadeh, Shingo Kono, Xuxin Wang

Superconducting qubits are among the most advanced candidates for achieving fault-tolerant quantum computing. Despite recent significant advancements in the qubit lifetimes, the origin of the loss mechanism for state-of-the-art qubits is still subject to i ...

An ultra-low temperature scanning Hall probe microscope for magnetic imaging below 40 mK

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Julian Piatek

We describe the design of a low temperature scanning Hall probe microscope (SHPM) for a dilution refrigerator system. A detachable SHPM head with 25.4 mm OD and 200 mm length is integrated at the end of the mixing chamber base plate of the dilution refrige ...

Evanescent straight tapered-fiber coupling of ultra-high Q optomechanical micro-resonators in a low-vibration helium-4 exchange-gas cryostat

Tobias Kippenberg, Albert Schliesser

We developed an apparatus to couple a 50-mu m diameter whispering-gallery silica microtoroidal resonator in a helium-4 cryostat using a straight optical tapered-fiber at 1550 nm wavelength. On a top-loading probe specifically adapted for increased mechanic ...

Modeling and Simulation of the Operation of a Rotary Magnetic Refrigerator

Didier Albert Simon Vuarnoz, Cyrill Gonin

Magnetic refrigeration is a new environmentally benign technology and a promising alternative to conventional vapor-cycle refrigeration. Among these technologies the household refrigerator without a freezing compartment shows very good prospects for a succ ...

Modeling of a two-stage magnetic refrigerator with wavy-structure gadolinium heat exchangers

Didier Albert Simon Vuarnoz, Cyrill Gonin

In a rotary magnetic refrigerator a porous ring is turning in and out of a magnetic field region. The adiabatic demagnetization of the magnetocaloric material produces the "cold energy". This is described by a discontinuous temperature decrease, known as a ...
