| dc.description.abstract | This thesis discusses recent experimental work in measuring the properties of higher levels in transmon qubit systems. The first part includes a thorough overview of transmon devices, explaining the principles of the device design, the transmon Hamiltonian, and general Circuit Quantum Electrodynamics concepts and methodology. The second part discusses the experimental setup and methods employed in measuring the higher levels of these systems, and the details of the simulation used to explain and predict the properties of these levels. | en_US |
