The impact of small (~1%) fabrication variations in qubit inductance and critical current can be minimized by the application of a custom-tuned flux offset to the CJJ structure of each qubit. This strategy allows for a simultaneous synchronization of the qubit persistent current and tunnel splitting over a range of external bias parameters that is relevant for the implementation of an adiabatic quantum processor.SuperconductivityComputational physicsQuantum information and quantum mechanicsSynchronization of multiple coupled rf-SQUID flux qubitsArticle10.1088/1367-2630/11/12/123022openAccess
