Why EM Simulation is Important for Quantum Hardware Design

From Interconnects to Qubits: Simulating the Full Quantum Computing Stack

Building next-generation quantum computers demands precision at every scale — from the cables that carry signals into a cryostat to the qubits themselves. This webinar shows how electromagnetic (EM) simulation empowers engineers to design, optimize, and scale quantum hardware faster and with greater confidence, cutting costly design iterations at every stage.

What you'll learn:

• Design flexible, multichannel I/O interconnects for high-density quantum systems using EM simulation
• Optimize the flex-to-coax segment — including RF transitions, filters, and flexible PCB design — for superior signal integrity
• Evaluate critical RF performance metrics, including return loss, insertion loss, and crosstalk
• Model superconducting transmon qubit circuits at the chip level using CST's 3D EM simulation tools
• Design and optimize transmons, resonators, and feedlines with eigenmode and frequency-domain solvers
• Interpret key quantum design parameters like anharmonicity and Q-factor
• Extract quantum-specific results through advanced simulation post-processing

Whether you're architecting system-level interconnects or engineering qubit circuits, this webinar delivers practical, simulation-driven strategies to accelerate your quantum hardware development.
