Description

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of quantum devices, and in particular to a wrap-around superconducting quantum flip chip and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the deepening of quantum computing research, superconducting quantum computing schemes have made significant breakthroughs in multiple key indicators. For example, in the operation of single-bit and double-bit quantum gates, the fidelity has reached and exceeded the important thresholds of 99.9% and 99%, respectively. The number of qubits, an important indicator of quantum computing performance, has successfully broken through 100. This makes the superconducting quantum computing scheme have great potential in realizing practical applications, and thus has attracted widespread attention from all walks of life. However, as the number of bits continues to increase, the traditional single-plane integration method has been unable to meet the growing demand for bit integration, which has become a major challenge for superconducting quantum computing. In order to overcome this challenge, researchers have begun to explore new solutions to achieve larger-scale integration of quantum bits.

[0003] In order to solve the problem of large-scale integration of quantum bits on a single plane, advanced packaging technologies are introduced into the preparation of superconducting quantum chips. These technologies, such as flip-chip bonding and TSV technology, can split the circuit structure onto multiple planes and achieve efficient connection between these planes through precise alignment and compression bonding processes. The introduction of this method not only solves the limitations of single-plane integration, but also provides the possibility for superconducting quantum chips to develop towards higher bit numbers. Through the application of these advanced packaging technologies, the preparation efficiency and reliability of superconducting quantum chips have been significantly improved.

[0004] However, the preparation of the flip-chip bonding chip of the current commonly used superconducting quantum chip is generally to first prepare the corresponding circuit structure on two independent chip planes, then make a large number of dispersedly arranged indium columns on the two chip circuit planes respectively, and finally use a flip-chip bonding device to align the two chips, align the upper and lower indium columns one by one, and compress bond to the preset height to realize the electrical interconnection of the upper and lower chips. This process will reduce the performance of the existing bits. SUMMARY
