Automated Detection of Qubit Structures on Quantum Chips
In this study, YOLO (You Only Look Once), a well-known object detection and image segmentation model, is used to detect qubits on a quantum chip. The model is trained by exposing it to various images of objects of interest and by tweaking various training parameters to allow the model to learn from a limited and highly specialized dataset of SEM imagery. The model was provided with numerous images of qubits and various prominent features of note located on a qubit. These detections were then integrated into a simple GUI, allowing for real-time feedback alongside SEM usage. This will allow us to create various functions enabling automated functions like chip-wide scanning, auto-focusing, and image correction.
