- To demonstrate a high-density interconnect solution for multi-qubit devices.
- To provide design insights for future quantum interconnect technologies.
Main Methods:
- Development of a modular cryogenic platform with coupled printed circuit boards.
- Integration of 24 filtered dc lines, 14 control/readout lines (dc to >6 GHz), and 2 microwave connections (up to 40 GHz).
- Performance evaluation through signal integrity and crosstalk measurements.
Main Results:
- The platform successfully integrates a high density of dc and RF interconnects.
- Signal integrity and crosstalk were measured to validate performance.
