This technology pertains to qubit circuits with components set deep in a substrate, enhancing efficiency and reducing footprint using existing integrated-circuit technologies.

Quantum computing, characterized by processing power exponentially greater than that of classical computers, capitalizes on the quantum bits or "qubits." Yet, creating stable and efficient qubit circuits remains a challenging venture. There's a compelling need for technology that can reliably produce high-performance qubit circuits with reduced physical footprint, manufactured using existing, proven methods. The problem with current methods lies in their inefficiencies, often manifesting as losses within the qubit circuit and poor coupling efficiency to and from the qubit. Furthermore, conventional practices do not provide a solution for reducing the circuits' footprint, often leading to bulky and unwieldy configurations. that significantly hamper the commercialization and broader application of quantum technologies.

Technology Description

The described technology relates to quantum circuitry (qubit circuits), which contains components engineered deep in a substrate material. Notably, these components could be superconducting current loops, inductive, or capacitive components. Manufactured employing existing integrated-circuit technologies, these qubit circuits aim to economize the footprint within the substrate, therefore making the circuit more compact. What sets this technology apart is the improvement it offers in both coupling efficiency to and from the qubit and the reduction of losses in the qubit circuit. Forming the qubit circuit's components deep within the substrate not only enables a more streamlined footprint but also enhances performance and efficiency, promising an overall optimized quantum computing solution.
