quarton

Definition

A specific type of coupling device used in quantum circuit architecture to enable strong nonlinear interactions between different components of a qubit.

Etymology

The term is a portmanteau derived from a combination of 'quantum' and 'resonator,' reflecting its function in coupling quantum systems.

In the news

In this article, a 'quarton coupler' is highlighted as a critical component that allows researchers to link separate modes of an 'arm qubit' while minimizing unwanted interference.
