| Sumario: | Abstract Superconducting circuits have emerged as a promising platform to build quantum processors. The challenge of designing a circuit is to compromise between realizing a set of performance metrics and reducing circuit complexity and noise sensitivity. At the same time, one needs to explore a large design space, and computational approaches often yield long simulation times. Here, we automate the circuit design task using SCILLA. The software SCILLA performs a parallelized, closed-loop optimization to design superconducting circuit diagrams that match predefined properties, such as spectral features and noise sensitivities. We employ it to design 4-local couplers for superconducting flux qubits and identify a circuit that outperforms an existing proposal with a similar circuit structure in terms of coupling strength and noise resilience for experimentally accessible parameters. This work demonstrates how automated design can facilitate the development of complex circuit architectures for quantum information processing. |
