• Abstract summary: Long coherence times, large anharmonicity and robust charge-noise insensitivity render fluxonium qubits an interesting alternative to transmons. Recent experiments have demonstrated record coherence times for low-frequency fluxonia. We propose a galvanic-coupling scheme with flux-tunable $textitXX$ coupling.

• Abstract: Long coherence times, large anharmonicity and robust charge-noise insensitivity render fluxonium qubits an interesting alternative to transmons. Recent experiments have demonstrated record coherence times for low-frequency fluxonia. Here, we propose a galvanic-coupling scheme with flux-tunable $\textit{XX}$ coupling. To implement a high-fidelity entangling $\sqrt{i\mathrm{SWAP}}$ gate, we modulate the strength of this coupling and devise variable-time identity gates to synchronize required single-qubit operations. Both types of gates are implemented using strong ac flux drives, lasting for only a few drive periods. We employ a theoretical framework capable of capturing qubit dynamics beyond the rotating-wave approximation (RWA) as required for such strong drives. We predict an open-system fidelity of $F>0.999$ for the $\sqrt{i\mathrm{SWAP}}$ gate under realistic conditions.

  We show that an AC-Zeeman shift due to the flux pulse for the gate operation largely affects the gate performance. We propose a method to cancel this undesirable effect. We numerically demonstrate a conditional-driving gate with average fidelity exceeding 99.9$%$ twice faster than that without the proposed method.

  We propose and demonstrate an architecture for fluxonium-fluxonium two-qubit gates mediated by transmon couplers (FTF) FTF enables stronger couplings for gates using non-computational states while simultaneously suppressing the static controlled-phase entangling rate ($ZZ$) down to kHz levels. We show that FTF can be applied to a variety of fluxonium gate schemes to improve gate fidelities and passively reduce unwanted $ZZ$ interactions.

We propose a scheme for overcoming the conventional $T_phi$ limit on fidelity by designing qubits in a way that amplitude damping errors can be detected and converted into erasure errors.
