• Abstract summary: We show that the characteristic hysteretic behavior of the ferromagnetic barrier provides an alternative and intrinsically digital tuning of the qubit frequency by means of magnetic field pulses. The possibility to use the qubit as a noise detector and its relevance to investigate the subtle interplay of magnetism and superconductivity is envisaged.

• Abstract: We propose to exploit currently available tunnel ferromagnetic Josephson junctions to realize a hybrid superconducting qubit. We show that the characteristic hysteretic behavior of the ferromagnetic barrier provides an alternative and intrinsically digital tuning of the qubit frequency by means of magnetic field pulses. To illustrate functionalities and limitation of the device, we discuss the coupling to a read-out resonator and the effect of magnetic fluctuations. The possibility to use the qubit as a noise detector and its relevance to investigate the subtle interplay of magnetism and superconductivity is envisaged.

  Superconductors are materials with zero electrical resistivity and the ability to expel magnetic fields known as the Meissner effect. We use superconducting diamagnetism to shape the magnetic environment governing the transport of spin waves in a thin-film magnet. Our results demonstrate the versatility of superconductor-manipulated spin-wave transport and have potential applications in spin-wave gratings, filters, crystals and cavities.

  cavity photons and ferromagnetic spins excitations can exchange information coherently in hybrid architectures.

We show that the geometry of the ferromagnet plays also an important role, by setting the fundamental frequency of the magnonic resonator.
