Nanoassembly technique of carbon nanotubes for hybrid circuit-QED

Abstract

A complex quantum dot circuit based on a clean and suspended carbon nanotube embedded in a circuit quantum electrodynamique (cQED) architecture is a very attractive platform to investigate a large spectrum of physics phenomena ranging from qubit physics to nanomechanics. We demonstrate a carbon nanotube transfer process allowing us to integrate clean carbon nanotubes into complex quantum dot circuits inside a cQED platform. This technique is compatible with various contacting materials such as superconductors or ferromagnets. This makes it suitable for hybrid quantum devices. Our results are based on 8 different devices demonstrating the robustness of this technique.
