Abstract
Techniques for designing, creating, and utilizing a current biased tunable qubit are presented. A qubit device can comprise a first Josephson junction (JJ) located along a first current path of the device, and a second JJ and third JJ coupled in series along a second current path in parallel with the first current path, wherein the second and third JJs facilitate controlling frequency of the device. The first JJ can be larger in area than each of the second and third JJs, wherein a current splitting ratio between the first current path and second current path can be increased thereby. The device can comprise a capacitor with a first terminal associated with the second and third JJs, and a second terminal associated with ground. Alternatively, a high kinetic inductance wire can be used in the first current path, instead of the JJ.
