Extracting Electromagnetic Bare Mode Couplings in Large Superconducting Quantum Processors

High-fidelity control of superconducting quantum processors requires accurate characterization of electromagnetic coupling strengths among the device's constituent elements. Accurately extracting these couplings across large-scale architectures, presently featuring hundreds of qubits, poses a challenging multi-scale modeling problem. This requires resolving scales from the nanometer-scale geometry of Josephson junctions and their leads to the centimeter-scale size of the enclosing metallic packages. We present four numerical coupling extraction methods based on the avoided level crossing, the energy participation ratio, the induced electromotive force, and the impedance matrix. These methods are tailored to work with commercially available 3D electromagnetic solvers. We benchmark these techniques on a 10times10 array of transmon qubits, extracting their couplings to standing package modes. Our results show that these methods yield consistent coupling strengths with a maximum relative difference of less than 5%.
