One of the major challenges in building fully functional quantum computers based on superconducting circuits is a scalable, high-fidelity two-qubit gate. Microwave-induced gates are appealing, but so far have been restricted to small qubit detunings, leading to frequency crowding and reduced gate speed and qubit addressability, due to crosstalk. The authors present a high-fidelity all-microwave gate based on a Raman transition, which allows for detunings that are large compared to the anharmonicity of the qubits, setting the stage for scalable, resource-efficient quantum processors.
