Build quantum computers using superconducting qubits and microwave cavity technology
Creating qubits with sufficiently long coherence times remains one of the central challenges in building practical quantum computers. Quantum Computing with Superconducting Qubits and Cavities unites the latest advances in superconducting qubits, ultra-high-Q microwave cavities, and cavity-transmon architectures that are emerging as one of the leading platforms for scalable, fault-tolerant quantum computing. By combining conceptual insight with practical implementation, the book equips readers to understand not only how these systems work, but why they are at the forefront of the quantum technology revolution.
The book explores quantum computation using bosonic modes, Fock states, qudits, quantum memories, and modern bosonic error-correcting codes including cat, binomial, and GKP encodings. Fundamental concepts are developed through clear physical explanations, while rigorous mathematical treatments are introduced where needed to provide a deeper understanding. Dedicated reviews of the underlying principles of quantum physics make the material accessible to newcomers without sacrificing the depth expected by researchers and practicing engineers.
