This webinar provides an overview of device fabrication and characterisation challenges and solutions for applications in Quantum Technology like Quantum computing, communications and sensing. The next step up in device performance will be driven by development in materials processing and characterisation technology. In this webinar we will address three aspects of device development for superconducting qubits and quantum circuits:

  • Plasma-enhanced ALD of superconductive thin films with RF substrate biasing by Dr Yi Shu, Oxford Instruments Plasma Technology

  • Plasma etching of superconducting metals by Colin Welch, Oxford Instruments Plasma Technology

  • Qubit characterization and measurement in cryogenic systems by Dr Ziad Melhem, Oxford Instruments NanoScience
