This study demonstrates that liquid-metal micro-pipette printing can successfully fabricate superconducting resonators with high quality factors, challenging the assumption that additive manufacturing is inferior for quantum hardware. By enabling local addition of metal structures without disrupting existing circuit elements, this technique offers a scalable path toward building larger fault-tolerant quantum computers using established fabrication methods.
Liquid metal printing for superconducting circuits
arXiv:2511.09705v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Superconducting circuits are a promising platform for implementing fault-tolerant quantum computers, quantum limited amplifiers, ultra-low power superconducting electronics, and sensors with ultimate sensitivity. Typically, circuit fabrication is realized by standard nanolithography, generally associated with a high level of control over defects and contaminants. Additive approaches have not been used so far since they are expected to be inferior in terms of superconducting properties or quantum coherence. This work shows that liquid-metal based micro-pipette printing is suited for fabricating superconducting lumped-element resonators with high internal quality factors. The applicability of our technique for low-loss superconducting device fabrication and the possibility to locally add metal structures, without affecting any preexisting circuit elements, is a further advantage. Our results open up new avenues in the hardware implementation of scaled-up superconducting quantum computers.
