Techniques facilitating frequency allocation in multi-qubit circuits are provided. In one example, a computer-implemented method comprises determining, by a device operatively coupled to a processor, an estimated fabrication yield associated with respective qubit chip configurations by conducting simulations of the respective qubit chip configurations at respective frequency offsets; and selecting, by the device, a qubit chip configuration from among the respective qubit chip configurations based on the estimated fabrication yield associated with the respective qubit chip configurations.

Frequency allocation in multi-qubit circuits

A method for characterizing noise in a quantum system, the quantum system including a plurality of qubits and a plurality of entangling gates native to the quantum system, includes generating a random quantum circuit on a quantum processor, the random quantum circuit comprising the plurality of entangling gates native to the quantum system. The method includes running a simulation of the random quantum circuit on a classical computer a plurality of times to obtain ideal outcomes, and running the random quantum circuit on the quantum processor a plurality of times to obtain experimental outcomes. The method includes grouping the experimental outcomes based on probabilities of the ideal outcomes to obtain a first distribution, and grouping the experimental outcomes based on probabilities of the experimental outcomes to obtain a second distribution. The method includes characterizing noise in the quantum system based on the first distribution and the second distribution.

A system for adjusting qubit frequency includes a qubit device having a Josephson junction and a shunt capacitor coupled to electrodes of the Josephson junction. A cantilevered conductor is separated from the shunt capacitor by a spacing. An adjustment mechanism is configured to deflect the cantilevered conductor to tune a qubit frequency for the qubit device.
