Gradiometric fluxoniums are a novel type of fluxonium qubits introduced by Gusenkova et al. (Appl. Phys. Lett. 120, 2022). Benefiting from their double-loop geometry, gradiometric fluxoniums are substantially less sensitive to global magnetic fields, while retaining all regular fluxonium properties. Going further, we propose to show the simultaneous locking of a handful of gradiometric fluxoniums at a flux point corresponding to the so-called sweet spot of operation, allowing them to be used without the need for external flux biasing after locking. This is done by trapping a fluxon in the most external loop of each device with an external magnetic field while crossing the metal-to-superconductor transition.
