Abstract
A superconducting integrated circuit has a first superconducting device with a first superconducting loop, where the first superconducting loop has a first superconducting trace in a first layer of the superconducting integrated circuit, and a second superconducting device with a second superconducting loop, where the second superconducting loop has a second superconducting trace in a second layer. The first superconducting loop crosses the second superconducting loop in a crossing region. At least a portion of each of the first and the second superconducting trace inside the crossing region is narrower than at least a portion of each of the traces outside the crossing region, and follows a respective circuitous path which is inductively proximate to at least a portion of the other path.
