Wafer Assembled Whispering Gallery Mode Resonator
A research update on a superconducting ring resonator formed between patterned aluminum films on stacked wafers, aimed at measuring thin-film quality factors and at a wafer-scalable cQED architecture. It explains the mode structure, simulation results on tolerance and vacuum participation, room-temperature checks against simulation, and measured quality factors before and after design changes.
- Motivation: keep fields in vacuum, away from lossy dielectrics and walls
- Transmission-line ring picture, degenerate modes and lifting the degeneracy
- Simulated tolerance to misalignment and high vacuum participation
- Measured common and differential modes, design changes and next steps toward junctions and qubits
Summary and key points drafted by a language model from the slides, not yet reviewed by me. The slides are the source.
