    Abstract: In a phase modulation method enable signals may be sequentially generating based on a clock signal to generate a sequence of enable signals, and a signal is delayed by delay values generated from delay cells based on the sequence of enable signals and digital bit values. A phase modulator may include a first delay circuit configured to: delay a clock signal based on a first delay value to generate a first delayed clock signal, and delay a carrier signal based on the first delayed clock signal to generate a first delayed carrier signal; and a second delay circuit configured to: delay the first delayed clock signal based on a second delay value to generate a second delayed clock signal, and delay the first delayed carrier signal based on the second delayed clock signal to generate a second delayed carrier signal.

    Abstract: Described herein are new transmission line structures for use as resonators and non-resonant interconnects in quantum circuits. In one aspect of the present disclosure, a proposed structure includes a substrate, a ground plane disposed over the substrate, a dielectric layer disposed over the ground plane, and a conductor strip disposed over the dielectric layer. In another aspect, a proposed structure includes a substrate, a lower ground plane disposed over the substrate, a lower dielectric layer disposed over the lower ground plane, a conductor strip disposed over the lower dielectric layer, an upper dielectric layer disposed over the conductor strip, and an upper ground plane disposed over the upper dielectric layer. Transmission line structures as proposed herein could be used for providing microwave connectivity to, from, or/and between the qubits, or to set the frequencies that address individual qubits. Methods for fabricating such structures are disclosed as well.

    Abstract: This application discusses, among other things, calibration systems for ameliorating nonlinearity of a digital-to-time converter (DTC). In an example, a calibration system can include a calibration path configured to represent a segment of the DTC, a time-to-digital circuit configured to receive an output of the calibration path and the processed frequency information and to provide timing error information of the segment, and a calibration engine configured to receive controller modulation information from a main controller, to provide calibration modulation information to the DTC, to receive the timing error information, and to provide compensation information to a correction circuit coupled to the DTC using the timing error information.
