Abstract

Quantum systems are provided, including a qubit and a transmission line resonator having an associated resonant wavelength. A coupling capacitor is configured to capacitively couple the qubit to the transmission line resonator. A transformer is configured to inductively couple the qubit to the transmission line resonator. A selected one of an associated capacitance of the coupling capacitor and an associated mutual inductance of the transformer is a function of a location of the qubit along the transmission line resonator.
