6. Controllable coupling of superconducting qubits and implementation of quantum gate protocols
Sammanfattning : The concept of a quantum computer was invented in the beginning of the 1980s as a quantum generalization of the reversible classical computer. After discoveries in the middle of the 1990s of quantum algorithms, which wouldsolve some problems considered intractable for classical computers, the field of quantum computing has developed rapidly.

7. Read-out of superconducting qubits - a quantum measurement process
Sammanfattning : In this work we consider measurements on quantum systems emphasizingon read-out of superconducting qubits. The qubit is always coupled to anenvironment, containing a macroscopic number of degrees of freedom. Thisperturbs the qubit and destroys the phase coherence of the quantum state. LÄS MER
8. Studies on hybrid superconducting junctions
Sammanfattning : In the field of nanoelectronics, one seeks to combine quantum mechanical effects with macroscopic entities such as currents in order to find new ways of storing and manipulating information. One possibility to accomplish this is to use the quantum correlations found in superconductors. LÄS MER
9. Superconducting Qubits: Charge read-out and backaction
Sammanfattning : For quantum computers to become reality, not only do the qubits have to be carefully engineered to be well isolated during operation time, but this also puts great strain on the measurement setup. We have looked at the backaction from a single-electron transistor (SET), operated both in the normal and in the superconducting state, on a single Cooper-pair box qubit. LÄS MER
10. Fast-tunable resonators and quantum electrical circuits
Sammanfattning : In this thesis, measurements on superconducting electrical circuits that exhibit quantum mechanical effects are presented. Nonlinear superconducting circuits can be regarded as artificial atoms with energy spectra that can be engineered. The artificial atoms can be used as quantum bits for quantum computation. LÄS MER
