Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to quantum circuit assemblies implementing superconducting qubits, e.g., transmons, in which SQUID loops and portions of FBLs configured to magnetically couple to the SQUID loops extend substantially vertically. In contrast to conventional implementations, for a vertical SQUID according to various embodiments of the present disclosure, a line that is perpendicular to the SQUID loop is parallel to the qubit substrate. A corresponding FBL is also provided in a vertical arrangement, in order to achieve efficient magnetic coupling to the vertical SQUID loop, by ensuring that at least a portion of the FBL designed to conduct current responsible for generating magnetic field for tuning qubit frequency is substantially perpendicular to the substrate. |
