Superconducting Circuit Architectures Explained

<p>Quantum science and technology provides new possibilities in processing information simulating novel materials and answering fundamental questions beyond the reach of classical methods. Realizing these goals relies on the advancement of physical platforms among which superconducting circuits have been one of the leading candidates offering complete control and read-out over individual qubits and the potential to scale up. However most circuit-based multi-qubit architectures only</p><p>include nearest-neighbor (NN) coupling between qubits which limits the efficient implementation of low-overhead quantum error correction and access to a wide range of physical models using analog quantum simulation</p>
