Scalable Microwave Control Package for Qubit Characterization
Abstract
We aim to explore solutions to low noise microwave electronics that integrate with cryogenic measurement setups to probe and characterize materials and device properties at base temperature of 20 mK. This equipment package will be devoted to measurements of superconducting-semiconductor hybrid devices and qubits. These devices are at the forefront of current fundamental solid state device research and have potential transformative applications, e.g., in quantum computing and information processing. The proposed system will enhance our research capabilities in several crucial ways: (1) It will allow us to study microwave regime up to 20GHz frequency which is well within the operational frequency of these devices. We currently do not have these capabilities. (2) These equipments have low noise characteristics something that is crucial for measuring single photon properties of superconducting qubits. (3) They integrate well into our current cryostats that are equipped with microwave lines 4) The new PXI design for control and readout is scalable on a fast electronic chassis which allows fast onboard level of control, feedback and readout to control up to 20 qubits on a single chassis.
