Researchers at Aalto University have uncovered the thermal energy loss in qubits through a simple experimental setup, shedding light on superconducting qubit coherence loss in quantum computers.

The study, involving physicists and an international team, focuses on superconducting Josephson junctions, crucial for high-performance quantum computing, and provides insights into thermal dissipation and its impact on qubit efficiency.

Physicists from Aalto University in Finland, alongside an international team of collaborators, have theoretically and experimentally shown that superconducting qubit coherence loss can be directly measured as thermal dissipation in the electrical circuit holding the qubit.
