Abstract

Scalable quantum computing is limited by the dense network of electrical interconnects linking cryogenic quantum processors to room-temperature control electronics. To overcome this bottleneck, considerable effort has focused on cryogenic CMOS electronics and microwave-to-optical transduction, aiming to reduce wiring complexity and thermal loading. Wireless interconnects have recently emerged as a promising complementary approach, yet their compatibility with superconducting quantum hardware remains largely unexplored. Here, we demonstrate the wireless excitation of a superconducting microwave resonator of the type routinely employed for qubit readout, operating at millikelvin temperatures inside a dilution refrigerator. By directly comparing wired and wireless operation within the same cryogenic environment, we show that wireless coupling preserves the intrinsic resonator response while revealing parasitic electromagnetic pathways arising from stray radiation within the cryostat enclosure. These results establish a framework for the co-design of wireless interconnects, cryogenic packaging and superconducting quantum hardware.
