Topologies for interconnecting capacitive and inductive elements in a capacitively-coupled rib are described. An example relates to a resonant clock network (RCN) that resonates in response to both a first clock signal having a first phase and a second clock signal having a second phase. The RCN includes at least one rib coupled to at least one spine. The rib includes a first capacitive line configured to receive the first clock signal and provide, via a first capacitor, a first bias current to a first superconducting circuit. The rib further includes a second capacitive line configured to receive the second clock signal and provide, via a second capacitor, a second bias current to a second superconducting circuit. The rib further includes at least one inductive line configured to connect the first capacitive line with the second capacitive line forming a direct connection between the two capacitive lines.
