Abstract
Building a scalable full-stack superconducting quantum computer requires high-coherence qubits, high-fidelity gates, and robust system integration. In this talk, I will outline our recent progress in circuit and coupler design, chip packaging, and automated gate calibration. I will also highlight key challenges that emerge as systems grow in size, including connectivity, long-range coupling, and crosstalk management. These developments point toward the architectural requirements for scaling superconducting quantum processors.
 
Biography
Dr. Chii-Dong Chen is a Distinguished Research Fellow at the Research Center for Critical Issues, Academia Sinica, and currently serves as the Executive Officer of the Thematic Center for Quantum Computing.

He received his Ph.D. in Physics from Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden, and subsequently worked as a postdoctoral researcher at the NEC Fundamental Research Laboratories in Tsukuba, Japan.

Dr. Chen later joined Academia Sinica as a faculty member, where he has led national quantum computing initiatives and announced the successful development of a 5-qubit full-stack quantum computer, marking a major milestone in advancing Taiwan’s quantum technology ecosystem.
