M018_Yggdrasil

Yggdrasil is our newest generation single electron quantum bit experiment. This project is a collaboration between Ge Yang (@episodeyang) and Gerwin Koolstra (@gkoolstra) at the University of Chicago.

The simulations folder contains several files that help us with the simulation of our sample. Please note:

• .aedt files are created using Ansys Electronics Desktop 2015.
• .mxwl files are created by Ansys Maxwell 2015.

Please do not convert these files to later versions of Ansys software and then commit. These files are usually not backwards compatible.

The mask folder contains versioned mask script and mask dxf files. Here is an example of our design:
