Abstract
In a general aspect, a superconducting via for routing electrical signals through a substrate includes the substrate and a layer formed of superconducting material. The substrate has a first orifice disposed on a first surface and a second orifice disposed on a second surface. A cavity extends through the substrate from the first orifice to the second orifice. The layer of superconducting material includes a first portion occluding the first orifice and having an exterior surface facing outward from the substrate. The layer also includes a second portion in contact with a side wall of the cavity and extending to the second orifice. A quantum circuit element may optionally be disposed on the first surface and electrically coupled to the exterior surface of the first portion of the layer.
