Engineering High-Performance Microwave Resonators for Superconducting Quantum Computers

pipes

Masters Project Description

Superconducting quantum computers hold immense potential but rely on microwave resonators for qubit control. These resonators, which are made up of superconducting material on silicon, use microwaves to interact with quantum bits. This project offers a unique opportunity to become a quantum engineer. You'll design and fabricate high-quality resonators on silicon chips, then analyze their performance and consistency. By mastering cutting-edge microfabrication techniques and exploring design parameters, you'll gain a deep understanding of these crucial components and contribute to the future of quantum computing! 

Benefits for the Future Quantum Scientist 

  • Hands-on experience: Gain practical knowledge of cutting-edge microfabrication techniques used in real quantum computers. 
  • Deep understanding: Explore how individual components work together to form a complex system. 
  • Quantum contribution: Be part of the exciting world of quantum computing by building the essential building blocks!

Expected Qualifications:

Master student in Physics, Nanoscience or related.
