Over the last decade, superconducting circuits have shown rapid progress in being implemented for quantum-based measurements. This includes the advent of superconducting qubits, high quality-factor resonant electromagnetic cavities, and high-Q mechanical resonators. Combinations of these circuit elements could lead to a quantum information processor, the ability to simulate quantum systems, or quantum-limited measurements. I will discuss efforts at NIST to develop these circuit elements and describe some of our recent experimental results. |
