Patent 8928391 was granted and assigned to NORTHROP GRUMMAN SYSTEMS CORPORATION on January, 2015 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
Methods and apparatuses are provided for controlling the state of a qubit. A qubit apparatus includes a qubit and a load coupled to the qubit through a filter. The filter has at least a first pass band and a first stop band. A qubit control is configured to tune the qubit to alter an associated transition frequency of the qubit from a first frequency in the first stop band of the filter to a second frequency in the first pass band of the filter.
