text: 'State-of-the-art transmon qubits rely on large capacitors, which systematically
improve their coherence due to reduced surface-loss participation. However, this
approach increases both the footprint and the parasitic cross-coupling and is
ultimately limited by radiation losses—a potential roadblock for scaling up quantum
processors to millions of qubits. In this work we present transmon qubits with
sizes as low as 36 × 39 µm2 with 100-nm-wide vacuum-gap capacitors that are micromachined
from commercial silicon-on-insulator wafers and shadow evaporated with aluminum.
We achieve a vacuum participation ratio up to 99.6% in an in-plane design that
is compatible with standard coplanar circuits. Qubit relaxationtime measurements
for small gaps with high zero-point electric field variance of up to 22 V/m reveal
a double exponential decay indicating comparably strong qubit interaction with
long-lived two-level systems. The exceptionally high selectivity of up to 20 dB
to the superconductor-vacuum interface allows us to precisely back out the sub-single-photon
dielectric loss tangent of aluminum oxide previously exposed to ambient conditions.
In terms of future scaling potential, we achieve a ratio of qubit quality factor
to a footprint area equal to 20 µm−2, which is comparable with the highest T1
devices relying on larger geometries, a value that could improve substantially
for lower surface-loss superconductors. '

text: Quantum entanglement is a key resource in currently developed quantum technologies.
Sharing this fragile property between superconducting microwave circuits and optical
or atomic systems would enable new functionalities, but this has been hindered
by an energy scale mismatch of >104 and the resulting mutually imposed loss and
noise. In this work, we created and verified entanglement between microwave and
optical fields in a millikelvin environment. Using an optically pulsed superconducting
electro-optical device, we show entanglement between propagating microwave and
optical fields in the continuous variable domain. This achievement not only paves
the way for entanglement between superconducting circuits and telecom wavelength
light, but also has wide-ranging implications for hybrid quantum networks in the
context of modularization, scaling, sensing, and cross-platform verification.

text: The ability to control the direction of scattered light is crucial to provide
flexibility and scalability for a wide range of on-chip applications, such as
integrated photonics, quantum information processing, and nonlinear optics. Tunable
directionality can be achieved by applying external magnetic fields that modify
optical selection rules, by using nonlinear effects, or interactions with vibrations.
However, these approaches are less suitable to control microwave photon propagation
inside integrated superconducting quantum devices. Here, we demonstrate on-demand
tunable directional scattering based on two periodically modulated transmon qubits
coupled to a transmission line at a fixed distance. By changing the relative phase
between the modulation tones, we realize unidirectional forward or backward photon
scattering. Such an in-situ switchable mirror represents a versatile tool for
intra- and inter-chip microwave photonic processors. In the future, a lattice
of qubits can be used to realize topological circuits that exhibit strong nonreciprocity
or chirality.

text: "About a 100 years ago, we discovered that our universe is inherently noisy,
that is, measuring any physical quantity with a precision beyond a certain point
is not possible because of an omnipresent inherent noise. We call this - the quantum
noise. Certain physical processes allow this quantum noise to get correlated in
conjugate physical variables. These quantum correlations can be used to go beyond
the potential of our inherently noisy universe and obtain a quantum advantage
over the classical applications. \r\n\r\nQuantum noise being inherent also means
that, at the fundamental level, the physical quantities are not well defined and
therefore, objects can stay in multiple states at the same time. For example,
the position of a particle not being well defined means that the particle is in
multiple positions at the same time. About 4 decades ago, we started exploring
the possibility of using objects which can be in multiple states at the same time
to increase the dimensionality in computation. Thus, the field of quantum computing
was born. We discovered that using quantum entanglement, a property closely related
to quantum correlations, can be used to speed up computation of certain problems,
such as factorisation of large numbers, faster than any known classical algorithm.
Thus began the pursuit to make quantum computers a reality. \r\n\r\nTill date,
we have explored quantum control over many physical systems including photons,
spins, atoms, ions and even simple circuits made up of superconducting material.
However, there persists one ubiquitous theme. The more readily a system interacts
with an external field or matter, the more easily we can control it. But this
also means that such a system can easily interact with a noisy environment and
quickly lose its coherence. Consequently, such systems like electron spins need
to be protected from the environment to ensure the longevity of their coherence.
Other systems like nuclear spins are naturally protected as they do not interact
easily with the environment. But, due to the same reason, it is harder to interact
with such systems. \r\n\r\nAfter decades of experimentation with various systems,
we are convinced that no one type of quantum system would be the best for all
the quantum applications. We would need hybrid systems which are all interconnected
- much like the current internet where all sorts of devices can all talk to each
other - but now for quantum devices. A quantum internet. \r\n\r\nOptical photons
are the best contenders to carry information for the quantum internet. They can
carry quantum information cheaply and without much loss - the same reasons which
has made them the backbone of our current internet. Following this direction,
many systems, like trapped ions, have already demonstrated successful quantum
links over a large distances using optical photons. However, some of the most
promising contenders for quantum computing which are based on microwave frequencies
have been left behind. This is because high energy optical photons can adversely
affect fragile low-energy microwave systems. \r\n\r\nIn this thesis, we present
substantial progress on this missing quantum link between microwave and optics
using electrooptical nonlinearities in lithium niobate. The nonlinearities are
enhanced by using resonant cavities for all the involved modes leading to observation
of strong direct coupling between optical and microwave frequencies. With this
strong coupling we are not only able to achieve almost 100\\% internal conversion
efficiency with low added noise, thus presenting a quantum-enabled transducer,
but also we are able to observe novel effects such as cooling of a microwave mode
using optics. The strong coupling regime also leads to direct observation of dynamical
backaction effect between microwave and optical frequencies which are studied
in detail here. Finally, we also report first observation of microwave-optics
entanglement in form of two-mode squeezed vacuum squeezed 0.7dB below vacuum level.
\r\nWith this new bridge between microwave and optics, the microwave-based quantum
technologies can finally be a part of a quantum network which is based on optical
photons - putting us one step closer to a future with quantum internet. "

text: Recent quantum technologies have established precise quantum control of various
microscopic systems using electromagnetic waves. Interfaces based on cryogenic
cavity electro-optic systems are particularly promising, due to the direct interaction
between microwave and optical fields in the quantum regime. Quantum optical control
of superconducting microwave circuits has been precluded so far due to the weak
electro-optical coupling as well as quasi-particles induced by the pump laser.
Here we report the coherent control of a superconducting microwave cavity using
laser pulses in a multimode electro-optical device at millikelvin temperature
with near-unity cooperativity. Both the stationary and instantaneous responses
of the microwave and optical modes comply with the coherent electro-optical interaction,
and reveal only minuscule amount of excess back-action with an unanticipated time
delay. Our demonstration enables wide ranges of applications beyond quantum transductions,
from squeezing and quantum non-demolition measurements of microwave fields, to
entanglement generation and hybrid quantum networks.

text: Solid-state microwave systems offer strong interactions for fast quantum logic
and sensing but photons at telecom wavelength are the ideal choice for high-density
low-loss quantum interconnects. A general-purpose interface that can make use
of single photon effects requires < 1 input noise quanta, which has remained elusive
due to either low efficiency or pump induced heating. Here we demonstrate coherent
electro-optic modulation on nanosecond-timescales with only 0.16+0.02−0.01 microwave
input noise photons with a total bidirectional transduction efficiency of 8.7%
(or up to 15% with 0.41+0.02−0.02), as required for near-term heralded quantum
network protocols. The use of short and high-power optical pump pulses also enables
near-unity cooperativity of the electro-optic interaction leading to an internal
pure conversion efficiency of up to 99.5%. Together with the low mode occupancy
this provides evidence for electro-optic laser cooling and vacuum amplification
as predicted a decade ago.

text: "Recent substantial advances in the feld of superconducting circuits have
shown its\r\npotential as a leading platform for future quantum computing. In
contrast to classical\r\ncomputers based on bits that are represented by a single
binary value, 0 or 1, quantum\r\nbits (or qubits) can be in a superposition of
both. Thus, quantum computers can store\r\nand handle more information at the
same time and a quantum advantage has already\r\nbeen demonstrated for two types
of computational tasks. Rapid progress in academic\r\nand industry labs accelerates
the development of superconducting processors which may\r\nsoon fnd applications
in complex computations, chemical simulations, cryptography, and\r\noptimization.
Now that these machines are scaled up to tackle such problems the questions\r\nof
qubit interconnects and networks becomes very relevant. How to route signals on-chip\r\nbetween
diferent processor components? What is the most efcient way to entangle\r\nqubits?
And how to then send and process entangled signals between distant cryostats\r\nhosting
superconducting processors?\r\nIn this thesis, we are looking for solutions to
these problems by studying the collective\r\nbehavior of superconducting qubit
ensembles. We frst demonstrate on-demand tunable\r\ndirectional scattering of
microwave photons from a pair of qubits in a waveguide. Such a\r\ndevice can route
microwave photons on-chip with a high diode efciency. Then we focus\r\non studying
ultra-strong coupling regimes between light (microwave photons) and matter\r\n(superconducting
qubits), a regime that could be promising for extremely fast multi-qubit\r\nentanglement
generation. Finally, we show coherent pulse storage and periodic revivals\r\nin
a fve qubit ensemble strongly coupled to a resonator. Such a reconfgurable storage\r\ndevice
could be used as part of a quantum repeater that is needed for longer-distance\r\nquantum
communication.\r\nThe achieved high degree of control over multi-qubit ensembles
highlights not only the\r\nbeautiful physics of circuit quantum electrodynamics,
it also represents the frst step\r\ntoward new quantum simulation and communication
methods, and certain techniques\r\nmay also fnd applications in future superconducting
quantum computing hardware.\r\n"

text: Quantum illumination uses entangled signal-idler photon pairs to boost the
detection efficiency of low-reflectivity objects in environments with bright thermal
noise. Its advantage is particularly evident at low signal powers, a promising
feature for applications such as noninvasive biomedical scanning or low-power
short-range radar. Here, we experimentally investigate the concept of quantum
illumination at microwave frequencies. We generate entangled fields to illuminate
a room-temperature object at a distance of 1 m in a free-space detection setup.
We implement a digital phase-conjugate receiver based on linear quadrature measurements
that outperforms a symmetric classical noise radar in the same conditions, despite
the entanglement-breaking signal path. Starting from experimental data, we also
simulate the case of perfect idler photon number detection, which results in a
quantum advantage compared with the relative classical benchmark. Our results
highlight the opportunities and challenges in the way toward a first room-temperature
application of microwave quantum circuits.

text: Microelectromechanical systems and integrated photonics provide the basis
for many reliable and compact circuit elements in modern communication systems.
Electro-opto-mechanical devices are currently one of the leading approaches to
realize ultra-sensitive, low-loss transducers for an emerging quantum information
technology. Here we present an on-chip microwave frequency converter based on
a planar aluminum on silicon nitride platform that is compatible with slot-mode
coupled photonic crystal cavities. We show efficient frequency conversion between
two propagating microwave modes mediated by the radiation pressure interaction
with a metalized dielectric nanobeam oscillator. We achieve bidirectional coherent
conversion with a total device efficiency of up to ~60%, a dynamic range of 2
× 10^9 photons/s and an instantaneous bandwidth of up to 1.7 kHz. A high fidelity
quantum state transfer would be possible if the drive dependent output noise of
currently ~14 photons s^−1 Hz^−1 is further reduced. Such a silicon nitride based
transducer is in situ reconfigurable and could be used for on-chip classical and
quantum signal routing and filtering, both for microwave and hybrid microwave-optical
applications.

text: Practical quantum networks require low-loss and noise-resilient optical interconnects
as well as non-Gaussian resources for entanglement distillation and distributed
quantum computation. The latter could be provided by superconducting circuits
but existing solutions to interface the microwave and optical domains lack either
scalability or efficiency, and in most cases the conversion noise is not known.
In this work we utilize the unique opportunities of silicon photonics, cavity
optomechanics and superconducting circuits to demonstrate a fully integrated,
coherent transducer interfacing the microwave X and the telecom S bands with a
total (internal) bidirectional transduction efficiency of 1.2% (135%) at millikelvin
temperatures. The coupling relies solely on the radiation pressure interaction
mediated by the femtometer-scale motion of two silicon nanobeams reaching a Vπ
as low as 16 μV for sub-nanowatt pump powers. Without the associated optomechanical
gain, we achieve a total (internal) pure conversion efficiency of up to 0.019%
(1.6%), relevant for future noise-free operation on this qubit-compatible platform.

text: 'The superconducting circuit community has recently discovered the promising
potential of superinductors. These circuit elements have a characteristic impedance
exceeding the resistance quantum RQ ≈ 6.45 kΩ which leads to a suppression of
ground state charge fluctuations. Applications include the realization of hardware
protected qubits for fault tolerant quantum computing, improved coupling to small
dipole moment objects and defining a new quantum metrology standard for the ampere.
In this work we refute the widespread notion that superinductors can only be implemented
based on kinetic inductance, i.e. using disordered superconductors or Josephson
junction arrays. We present modeling, fabrication and characterization of 104
planar aluminum coil resonators with a characteristic impedance up to 30.9 kΩ
at 5.6 GHz and a capacitance down to ≤ 1 fF, with lowloss and a power handling
reaching 108 intra-cavity photons. Geometric superinductors are free of uncontrolled
tunneling events and offer high reproducibility, linearity and the ability to
couple magnetically - properties that significantly broaden the scope of future
quantum circuits. '

text: Quantum illumination is a sensing technique that employs entangled signal-idler
beams to improve the detection efficiency of low-reflectivity objects in environments
with large thermal noise. The advantage over classical strategies is evident at
low signal brightness, a feature which could make the protocol an ideal prototype
for non-invasive scanning or low-power short-range radar. Here we experimentally
investigate the concept of quantum illumination at microwave frequencies, by generating
entangled fields using a Josephson parametric converter which are then amplified
to illuminate a room-temperature object at a distance of 1 meter. Starting from
experimental data, we simulate the case of perfect idler photon number detection,
which results in a quantum advantage compared to the relative classical benchmark.
Our results highlight the opportunities and challenges on the way towards a first
room-temperature application of microwave quantum circuits.

text: "Microwave photonics lends the advantages of fiber optics to electronic sensing
and communication systems. In contrast to nonlinear optics, electro-optic devices
so far require classical modulation fields whose variance is dominated by electronic
or thermal noise rather than quantum fluctuations. Here we demonstrate bidirectional
single-sideband conversion of X band microwave to C band telecom light with a
microwave mode occupancy as low as 0.025 ± 0.005 and an added output noise of
less than or equal to 0.074 photons. This is facilitated by radiative cooling
and a triply resonant ultra-low-loss transducer operating at millikelvin temperatures.
The high bandwidth of 10.7 MHz and total (internal) photon conversion\r\nefficiency
of 0.03% (0.67%) combined with the extremely slow heating rate of 1.1 added output
noise photons per second for the highest available pump power of 1.48 mW puts
near-unity efficiency pulsed quantum transduction within reach. Together with
the non-Gaussian resources of superconducting qubits this might provide the practical
foundation to extend the range and scope of current quantum networks in analogy
to electrical repeaters in classical fiber optic communication."

text: We propose an efficient microwave-photonic modulator as a resource for stationary
entangled microwave-optical fields and develop the theory for deterministic entanglement
generation and quantum state transfer in multi-resonant electro-optic systems.
The device is based on a single crystal whispering gallery mode resonator integrated
into a 3D-microwave cavity. The specific design relies on a new combination of
thin-film technology and conventional machining that is optimized for the lowest
dissipation rates in the microwave, optical, and mechanical domains. We extract
important device properties from finite-element simulations and predict continuous
variable entanglement generation rates on the order of a Mebit/s for optical pump
powers of only a few tens of microwatts. We compare the quantum state transfer
fidelities of coherent, squeezed, and non-Gaussian cat states for both teleportation
and direct conversion protocols under realistic conditions. Combining the unique
capabilities of circuit quantum electrodynamics with the resilience of fiber optic
communication could facilitate long-distance solid-state qubit networks, new methods
for quantum signal synthesis, quantum key distribution, and quantum enhanced detection,
as well as more power-efficient classical sensing and modulation.

text: Mechanical systems facilitate the development of a hybrid quantum technology
comprising electrical, optical, atomic and acoustic degrees of freedom1, and entanglement
is essential to realize quantum-enabled devices. Continuous-variable entangled
fields—known as Einstein–Podolsky–Rosen (EPR) states—are spatially separated two-mode
squeezed states that can be used for quantum teleportation and quantum communication2.
In the optical domain, EPR states are typically generated using nondegenerate
optical amplifiers3, and at microwave frequencies Josephson circuits can serve
as a nonlinear medium4,5,6. An outstanding goal is to deterministically generate
and distribute entangled states with a mechanical oscillator, which requires a
carefully arranged balance between excitation, cooling and dissipation in an ultralow
noise environment. Here we observe stationary emission of path-entangled microwave
radiation from a parametrically driven 30-micrometre-long silicon nanostring oscillator,
squeezing the joint field operators of two thermal modes by 3.40 decibels below
the vacuum level. The motion of this micromechanical system correlates up to 50
photons per second per hertz, giving rise to a quantum discord that is robust
with respect to microwave noise7. Such generalized quantum correlations of separable
states are important for quantum-enhanced detection8 and provide direct evidence
of the non-classical nature of the mechanical oscillator without directly measuring
its state9. This noninvasive measurement scheme allows to infer information about
otherwise inaccessible objects, with potential implications for sensing, open-system
dynamics and fundamental tests of quantum gravity. In the future, similar on-chip
devices could be used to entangle subsystems on very different energy scales,
such as microwave and optical photons.
