  bibo_abstract:
  - State-of-the-art transmon qubits rely on large capacitors, which systematically
    improve their coherence due to reduced surface-loss participation. However, this
    approach increases both the footprint and the parasitic cross-coupling and is
    ultimately limited by radiation losses—a potential roadblock for scaling up quantum
    processors to millions of qubits. In this work we present transmon qubits with
    sizes as low as 36 × 39 µm2 with  100-nm-wide vacuum-gap capacitors that are micromachined
    from commercial silicon-on-insulator wafers and shadow evaporated with aluminum.
    We achieve a vacuum participation ratio up to 99.6% in an in-plane design that
    is compatible with standard coplanar circuits. Qubit relaxationtime measurements
    for small gaps with high zero-point electric field variance of up to 22 V/m reveal
    a double exponential decay indicating comparably strong qubit interaction with
    long-lived two-level systems. The exceptionally high selectivity of up to 20 dB
    to the superconductor-vacuum interface allows us to precisely back out the sub-single-photon
    dielectric loss tangent of aluminum oxide previously exposed to ambient conditions.
    In terms of future scaling potential, we achieve a ratio of qubit quality factor
    to a footprint area equal to 20 µm−2, which is comparable with the highest T1
    devices relying on larger geometries, a value that could improve substantially
    for lower surface-loss superconductors. @eng
