Dataset from: Correlated quasiparticle poisoning from phonon-only events in superconducting qubits

Errors that are correlated across a qubit array pose an obstacle to quantum error correction. We observe elevated correlated poisoning rates in superconducting qubit arrays at the start of a cooldown followed by power-law reductions in time, while the rate of offset-charge shifts remains constant; evidence of non-ionizing sources of pair-breaking phonon bursts. We also investigate different sample packages, with some exhibiting elevated poisoning due to mechanical impacts from the cryocooler. Possible sources include relaxation of built-up stress in device thin films, substrates, or packaging.
