Status: Completed
Start Date: 2023-10-01
End Date: 2024-09-30
Description:
The goal is to improve dielectric noise/loss in existing MKIDs (microwave kinetic inductance detectors) and superconducting parametric amplifiers by using Boron as a novel low-loss, low-noise dielectric layer.
Benefits:
The novel dielectric development has the potential to lead to ground-breaking improvements in superconducting detectors and quantum computers
