Abstract

Superconducting quantum interference devices and related circuits made of aluminum are known to display 1/ω flux noise, where ω is frequency. A recent experiment showed that the application of an external magnetic field in the 10–100 G range changed the noise to a single Lorentzian peaked at ω = 0. Here, it is shown that a model based on independent impurity spin flips with coexisting cross and direct mechanisms of spin relaxation may explain these experiments. The model shows that application of an external magnetic field can be used to reduce the impact of flux noise in qubits.
