Tunable superconducting resonators with integrated trap structures for coupling with ultracold atomic gases — •Benedikt Ferdinand¹, Daniel Bothner^{1, 2}, Dominik Wiedmaier¹, Dieter Koelle¹, and Reinhold Kleiner¹ — ¹Physikalisches Institut and Center for Quantum Science (CQ) in LISA⁺, Universität Tübingen, Auf der Morgenstelle 14, D-72076 Tübingen, Germany — ²Kavli Institute of Nanoscience, Delft University of Technology, PO Box 5046, 2600 GA, Delft, The Netherlands

We intend to investigate a hybrid quantum system where ultracold atomic gases play the role of a long-living quantum memory, coupled to a superconducting qubit via a coplanar waveguide transmission line resonator. As a first step we developed a resonator chip containing a Z-shaped trapping wire for the atom trap. In order to suppress parasitic resonances due to stray capacitances, and to achieve good ground connection we use hybrid superconductor - normal conductor chips. As an additional degree of freedom we add a ferroelectric capacitor making the resonators voltage-tunable. We furthermore show theoretical results on the expected coupling strength between resonator and atomic cloud.
