Advances in Superconducting Circuit Quantum Electrodynamics
(University of Waterloo, 2022-01-31)The topics of this thesis are based on circuit quantum electrodynamics (cQED), a theoretical and experimental platform allowing the study of light--matter interaction. This platform is rich both in observable physical ... -
Cats, Rotating Waves and Photons: An Excursion into Light-Matter Interaction
(University of Waterloo, 2023-09-27)This thesis hopes to achieve two modest goals. The primary goal is to formulate a practical theory for generating cat states by employing a resonant or detuned strong drive on a qubit coupled to a resonator. An incidental ... -
Indium Thin Films in Multilayer Superconducting Quantum Circuits
(University of Waterloo, 2018-01-03)The superconducting quantum computer is an implementation of the quantum computer and a current leader the field in terms of performance and potential for scalability to large systems. Its two main components are the ... -
A Purity Benchmarking Study of Superconducting Single-qubit Fluctuations
(University of Waterloo, 2023-07-31)Quantum processes are susceptible to errors. Over the years, numerous noise models, such as two-level system noise and flux noise, have been proposed by physicists to describe the mechanisms behind the error sources ...
