[Inside Quantum Technology] Chip packaging solutions for realizing useful fault tolerant quantum computers

The realization of practical quantum computers requires the development of comprehensive tools and solutions across all levels of the hardware and software stack. While quantum computing research has traditionally focused on physical qubit systems and high-level gate-based algorithms, chip packaging and signal conditioning around cryogenically operated physical qubit systems have often been neglected. However, as quantum technology progresses from academic labs to commercial applications, packaging becomes a crucial factor that can determine the difference between a quantum computer that functions, and one with practical use..
