Extended Data Fig. 1: Relaxation time in the presence of optical light.
From: Control and readout of a superconducting qubit using a photonic link
Histogram of 280 measurements of the relaxation time of the qubit with 2 μW of optical power applied to the photodiode during the qubit evolution. Comparison with data in the absence of optical power confirm that the qubit relaxation time is not affected by stray optical photons, with an average relaxation time T1 ≈ 43 μs. Data were acquired using the set-up in Fig. 2a.
