Abstract
Nanomechanical systems made from phononic crystals can act as highly coherent microwave-frequency circuits at cryogenic temperatures. However, generating sufficient coupling between these devices and microwave superconducting quantum circuits is challenging due to the vastly different length scales of acoustic and electrical excitations. Here we demonstrate a general recipe for calculating these interactions and show that large piezoelectric coupling rates between microwave superconducting circuits containing Josephson junctions and nanoscale phononic resonances are possible, suggesting a route to phononic crystal circuits and systems that are nonlinear at the single-phonon level.
