A coupler includes first and second electrodes and a nonlinear element including a Josephson junction. The first and second electrodes are spaced apart from a ground plane surrounding peripheries thereof and arranged opposed to each other. The first/second electrode includes two opposing portions extended toward first and second qubits/third and fourth qubits. At least either one of a gap between the first electrode and the ground plane facing the first electrode and a gap between the second electrode and the ground plane facing the second electrode, includes a gap width of at least a value of a same extent as or a fraction of a size of the first electrode or the second electrode.

Superconducting quantum circuit

A sample holder includes a base comprising a support structure and a printed circuit board (PCB) in contact with the base. The PCB has a through hole. The PCB has a cavity in at least a part of the base below the through hole. The support structure that supports a surface of a chip and is electrically connected to the base. The support structure is disposed in the cavity. At least a part of the section supporting the chip in the support structure is not parallel to the back surface of the chip.

Sample holder and superconducting quantum computer

A sample holder includes a base comprising a support structure and a printed circuit board (PCB) in contact with the base. The PCB includes: a dielectric; a front-surface ground (GND) formed on a front surface of the dielectric; a back-surface GND formed on a back surface of the dielectric; a through hole penetrating from the front-surface GND to the back-surface GND, the through hole in which a chip is disposed, and a conductor that electrically connects the front-surface GND and the back-surface GND on an end face of the through hole. At least a part of the base below the through hole has a cavity. The support structure that supports a surface of the chip and is electrically connected to the base. The support structure is disposed in the cavity.
