    • 2019, Thi Ha Kyaw, Towards a Scalable Quantum Computing Platform in the Ultrastrong Coupling Regime, Springer, →ISBN, page 93:
      Two additional transmon circuits can be positioned at the resonator edges, where the resonator voltage is maximum.
    • 2019 October 21, Dennis Overbye, “Quantum Computing Is Coming, Bit by Qubit”, in New York Times[1]:
      Those bits are then converted into pulses of microwaves and sent down through wires and pipes to a series of 50 small superconducting devices called “transmons” — the qubits — dangling at the bottom.
