    Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices for electrically coupling an integrated circuit to a set of coaxial lines via a printed circuit board assembly are described. A device sample holder includes a printed circuit board that is operable to edge-couple to an integrated circuit. A surface of the printed circuit board that carries a set of coaxial connectors is orthogonal to another surface of the printed circuit board that exposes a set of conductive traces. The set of conductive traces are operable to electrically couple to a set of conductive paths of an integrated circuit to provide a communicative path between the integrated circuit and components of an input/output system in a refrigerated environment.

    Abstract: A multilayer circuit board structure includes superconducting connections to internal layers thereof, for example by inclusion of superconducting vias. Two or more panels can each comprise respective electrically insulative substrates, each have one or more through-holes, and also include a respective bimetal foil on at least a portion of a respective surface thereof, which is patterned to form traces. The bimetal foil includes a first metal that is non-superconductive in a first temperature range and a second metal that is superconductive in the first temperature range. The panels are plated to deposit a third metal on exposed traces of the second metal, the third metal superconductive in the first temperature range. Panels are join (e.g., laminated) to form at least a three-layer superconducting printed circuit board with an inner layer, two outer layers, and superconducting vias between the inner layer and at least one of the two outer layers.

    Abstract: A method of fabricating a multilayer superconducting printed circuit board comprises first, forming a bimetal foil to overlie a substrate, the bimetal foil comprising a first layer of a first metal, a layer of a second metal, and a second layer of the first metal, and then etching the second layer of the first metal. Forming a bimetal foil to overlie a substrate may include forming a bimetal foil comprising a first layer of a normal metal, a layer of a superconducting metal, and a second layer of the normal metal. Etching the second layer of the first metal may include preparing a patterned image in the second layer of the first metal for etching, processing the patterned image through a cleaner, rinsing the patterned image, and then, immersing the patterned image in a microetch.
