US Patent 9893262 Lumped-element device for quantum information processing systems

In some aspects, a quantum information processing circuit includes a lumped-element device on the surface of a dielectric substrate. The lumped-element device can include a capacitor pad and an inductive transmission line. The capacitor pad can be capacitively coupled to another capacitor pad. The inductive transmission line can reside in an interior clearance area defined by an inner boundary of the capacitor pad. The lumped-element device can be, for example, a resonator device or a filter device. The inductive transmission line can be, for example, a meander inductor.
