Description

We have produced a general-purpose ultra-low-external interference quantum device holder suitable for various qubit and quantum sensor platforms. It is a continuation of UCB/LBNL's blackbody radiation (BBR) stub filter flange (SFF) study, in collaboration with nine US institutes to obtain the best available techniques in attempt to optimize every aspect possible. In this presentation, we first introduce the concept of SFF. We explain its theory, working principle, and its criticality that distinguishes our device performance from others. Next, we introduce our approach to integrate SFF with advanced features and techniques available in the collaboration for optimizing magnetism, vibration, quantum platform compatibility, production cost, and cryogenic engineering practicality. Finally, we present preliminary data from various qubit and quantum sensor platforms to demonstrate the promising results of the project.
