Biography:

Jen-Hao Yeh is a Research Scientist at IBM Quantum. His work focuses on developing cryogenic microwave hardware for scaling superconducting quantum computers. Previously he was a senior electrical engineer in Rigetti Computing, where he also led system buildout for superconducting quantum computers, in addition to component development. He was a postdoc researcher in the Laboratory for Physical Sciences, where he invented cryogenic attenuators for superconducting quantum devices, with a US patent. Jen-Hao received his Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering at the University of Maryland in 2013, and his B.S. degree in EE and Physics(double major) at National Taiwan University in 2006.

 

Session Title: Cryogenic hardware development in superconducting quantum computers

Abstract:

Superconducting computing is a promising approach to building large-scale quantum computers. Scientists have paved the way for understanding the physics of how it works, and now big industrial players, such as IBM, Google, and Amazon, have all joined to make quantum computers larger and more powerful. Many of the challenges related to scaling are engineering problems. This talk will first introduce the hardware of a superconducting quantum computer. Then I will present some current developments in cryogenic hardware, including cryostats, quantum amplifiers, cryogenic signal delivery, and cryogenic control systems, to tackle these challenges.
