This course will cover the basics of superconductivity and its applications in quantum computing. We will discuss the physics of Josephson junctions and how they are used to build quantum bits (qubits). We will then study two currently popular superconducting qubits: the transmon and the fluxonium. We will also look at superconducting amplifiers, including Travelling Wave Parametric Amplifiers (TWPAs). Lastly, we will explore how these devices, including magnetometers, may be used for quantum sensing.
