Single Transmon - Grounded (xmon) flux lines#
We’ll be creating a 2D design and adding a single transmon cross (xmon) qcomponent with flux lines.
Simple Metal Transmon Cross object. Creates the a cross-shaped island, the “junction” on the south end, and up to 3 connectors on the remaining arms (claw or gap).
‘claw_width’ and ‘claw_gap’ define the width/gap of the CPW line that makes up the connector. Note, DC SQUID currently represented by single inductance sheet

A transmon qubit with flux lines#
You can create a ready-made transmon cross qubit with flux lines from the QComponent Library, qiskit_metal.qlibrary.qubits. transmon_cross_fl.py is the file containing our qubit so transmon_cross_fl is the module we import. The TransmonCrossFL class is our transmon cross qubit. Like all quantum components, TransmonCrossFL inherits from QComponent.
Connector lines can be added using the connection_pads dictionary. Each connector pad has a name and a list of default properties.

# Be aware of the default_options that can be overridden by user.
