State-of-the-art qubits are typically tuned in frequency by a magnetic field. Our goal is to fabricate and characterize electrically tunable qubits, i.e. Gatemon and Andreev qubits, using a semiconductor nanowire Josephson junction as nonlinear element.

The main limitation for the qubit performance is the semiconductor-superconductor interface. We present a detailed analysis of the DC- and AC-properties of InAs/Al and InAs/Nb nanowire Josephson junctions with epitaxially grown superconductor shells based on Shapiro, emission and gate-dependent VI measurements.

Additionally, we present flux- and gate-dependent measurements of Andreev qubits as well as the spectroscopy of individual Andreev bound states by means of pump-probe experiments. The latter one reveals a Rashba- induced lifting of the spin degeneracy, which is one of the prerequisites for the realization of Majorana fermions.
