Diabatic Gates for Frequency-Tunable Superconducting Qubits

We demonstrate diabatic two-qubit gates with Pauli error rates down to 4.3 (2 )×10^-3 in as fast as 18 ns using frequency-tunable superconducting qubits. This is achieved by synchronizing the entangling parameters with minima in the leakage channel. The synchronization shows a landscape in gate parameter space that agrees with model predictions and facilitates robust tune-up. We test both iuc(swap)-like and uc(cphase) gates with cross-entropy benchmarking. The presented approach can be extended to multibody operations as well.
