Abstract

We demonstrate an acoustical analog of a circuit quantum electrodynamics system that leverages acoustic properties to enable strong multimode coupling in the dispersive regime while suppressing spontaneous emission to unconfined modes. Specifically, we fabricate and characterize a device that comprises a flux tunable transmon coupled to a 300 μm long surface acoustic wave resonator. For some modes, the qubit-cavity coupling reaches 6.5MHz, exceeding the cavity loss rate (200kHz), qubit linewidth (1.1MHz), and the cavity free spectral range (4.8MHz), placing the device in both the strong coupling and strong multimode regimes. With the qubit detuned from the confined modes of the cavity, we observe that the qubit linewidth strongly depends on its frequency, as expected for spontaneous emission of phonons, and we identify operating frequencies where this emission rate is suppressed.
