Tunable Coupling Architecture for Fixed-Frequency Transmon Superconducting Qubits
Open accessAbstract
Implementation of high-fidelity 2-qubit operations is a key ingredient for scalable quantum error correction. In superconducting qubit architectures, tunable buses have been explored as a means to higher-fidelity gates. However, these buses introduce new pathways for leakage. Here we present a modified tunable bus architecture appropriate for fixed-frequency qubits in which the adiabaticity restrictions on gate speed are reduced. We characterize this coupler on a range of 2-qubit devices, achieving a maximum gate fidelity of 99.85%. We further show the calibration is stable over one day.

With the tuneable coupler in IBM Quantum Egret and now being developed for the IBM Quantum Heron, the energy collision problem no longer exists as qubit frequencies can be designed to be farther apart.
“However, with the tuneable coupler55,56 in IBM Quantum Egret and now being developed for the IBM Quantum Heron, this problem no longer exists as qubit frequencies can be designed to be farther apart.”
From High-threshold and low-overhead fault-tolerant quantum memory (2024) · cites this paper as [56]
The passage on energy-level collisions (indexed under Abstract; page unavailable) says larger separation between qubit frequencies can avoid the resulting gate-operation complications. It does not say energy collisions no longer exist, or identify the coupler as used in IBM Quantum Egret or being developed for Heron. (LLM, conf=0.86)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
