HYBRID KINETIC INDUCTANCE DEVICES FOR SUPERCONDUCTING QUANTUM COMPUTING

A device includes: a substrate; a first superconductor layer on the substrate, the first superconductor layer having a first kinetic inductance; and a second superconductor layer on the first superconductor layer, the second superconductor layer having a second kinetic inductance that is lower than the first kinetic inductance, in which the second superconductor layer covers the first superconductor layer such that the second superconductor layer and the first superconductor layer have a same footprint, with the exception of at least a first region where the second superconductor layer is omitted so that the first superconductor layer and the second superconductor layer form a circuit element having a predetermined circuit parameter.
