Abstract

Techniques for a vertical transmon qubit device are provided. In one embodiment, a chip surface base device structure is provided that comprises a first superconducting material physically coupled to a crystalline substrate, wherein the crystalline substrate is physically coupled to a second superconducting material, wherein the second superconducting material is physically coupled to a second crystalline substrate. In one implementation, the chip surface base device structure also comprises a vertical Josephson junction located in a via of the crystalline substrate, the vertical Josephson junction comprising the first superconducting material, a tunnel barrier, and the second superconducting material. In one implementation, the chip surface base device structure also comprises a transmon qubit comprising the vertical Josephson junction and a capacitor formed between the first superconducting material and the second superconducting material.
