An introduction to superconducting quantum computers

An introduction to superconducting quantum computers

Superconducting qubits with lithographic scalability are among the most promising platforms for building quantum computers. The possibility of engineering these qubits by changing the geometry and topology of superconducting circuits brings ease of control, reading and adjustability by electric currents and voltages. In this presentation, after the necessary preparations, we will introduce the basics of superconducting quantum computer architecture, including the introduction of the qubit load, the methods of applying single-qubit and double-qubit gates and its reading. Then we will discuss the most important challenges and opportunities facing this technology to build scalable quantum computers.
