Topological qubits based on quantum Hall Josephson junctions offer a promising route toward robust quantum computing, but a key challenge remains: how to read out their quantum states in a controlled and scalable way. In my PhD project, I aim to address this by developing a graphene-based quantum Hall Josephson junction that is strongly coupled to a superconducting microwave resonator, enabling spectroscopic access to Andreev bound states.

Previous work in our group has demonstrated an h/e-periodic supercurrent in graphene Josephson junctions at filling factor nu=2, highlighting their potential for topological applications. Building on this, my work focuses on integrating such systems with resonators to allow standard microwave readout techniques—similar to those used in superconducting qubits. Achieving this is particularly challenging due to the high magnetic fields required for the quantum Hall regime, which are typically incompatible with conventional superconducting circuits. To overcome this, I am exploring the use of high-Hc2 superconducting resonators, galvanically coupled to the junction, to enable strong coupling and robust operation in these extreme conditions.

ABOUT

The RobustSuperQ project aims at accelerating French R&D on superconducting and hybrid qubits protected by construction against decoherence. It is part of a post-transmon strategy, alternative to surface code, in which the French teams are at the forefront. It brings together all of these teams around three complementary concepts: the Cat-code architecture, spin qubits implanted on superconducting circuits, and topologically protected superconducting qubits.

RobustSuperQ is a target project of the PEPR Quantum Technologies (priority programme for research & equipment),

part of the French National Quantum Strategy

We accelerate the French R&D on robust superconducting and hybrid qubits protected against decoherence. The project is organized into work packages (WP)

- WP0: Bricks of components and methods for WP1, 2 and 3.

- WP1: Cat-qubits encoding information in quantum superpositions of coherent microwave states.

- WP2: Dopant Spin qubits, encoding information in electronic and nuclear spins.

- WP3: Development of new qubits with topological protection.

- WP4: Creation and modernization of two manufacturing platforms* for superconducting qubits, and project coordination.

*Platforms: The two technical poles in the field, Ile-de-France and Grenoble, will make a qualitative leap in terms of resources, via the creation at CEA-Université Paris-Saclay of a new dedicated platform, and the acquisition of fabrication and characterization tools in the two poles. The resources will be pooled and interoperable, and the synergy of know-how and associated processes will be maximized.
