Tunable Josephson Generator for Qubit Excitation and Two‐Tone Spectroscopy
Advanced Quantum Technologies, EarlyView.A tunable on‐chip Josephson generator that enables direct qubit excitation has been presented. The device consists of a current‐biased Josephson junction and a superconducting resonator, forming a microwave source that operates at 4 K. Excitation of the qubit at 20 mK was done via a short coaxial line between the 4 K and 20 mK stages.
