Abstract:
Recently, a new kind of distributed element superconducting resonators with granular aluminum (grAl) has been developed for circuit quantum electrodynamics. Given that lumped element resonators possess certain advantages over the distributed element ones, in this paper, we use a relatively simple micro-nanotechnology, without the etching process, to fabricate the designed lumped element superconducting grAl resonators. They are deposited on silicon substrates by DC magnetron sputtering of pure Al in an atmosphere of Ar and O2. By cryogenic microwave transmission measurements, at a temperature of 50 mK, we find that, compared with a usual Al resonator of the same size, such a device shows significantly strong nonlinearity and thus higher kinetic inductance. The noise features, quality factors, and temperature-dependence of the resonant frequencies have been investigated experimentally. It is believed that the lumped element superconducting resonators with high kinetic inductance demonstrated here could also be applied to superconducting quantum computation and photon counting in the future.
