FAQ
Can we also use higher levels than to exploit a superposition of more than two quantum levels?
Yes. Higher energy may be used to make Toffoli gates or implement qu-trit gates which have characteristic dispersion to charge noise at different energy levels (Source: Live Q&A video at 5:03 time stamp)

If I want to do research in QC hardware, how do I start?
Qiskit Metal. Also, reach out to professors to join project in a lab. Don’t be shy! Learn by doing hands-on work.
When designing a qubit, do we use Fermions or Bosons
In principle it can be done either way.
