Abstract Superconducting qubits are a leading candidate for quantum computing but display temporal fluctuations in their energy relaxation times T 1. This introduces instabilities in multi-qubit device performance. Furthermore, autocorrelation in these time fluctuations introduces challenges for obtaining representative measures of T 1 for process optimization and device screening. These T 1 fluctuations are often attributed to time varying coupling of the qubit to defects, putative two level systems (TLSs). In this work, we develop a technique to probe the spectral and temporal dynamics of T 1 in single junction transmons by repeated T 1 measurements in the frequency vicinity of the bare qubit transition, via the AC-Stark effect. Across 10 qubits, we observe strong correlations between the mean T 1 averaged over approximately nine months and a snapshot of an equally weighted T 1 average over the Stark shifted frequency range. These observations are suggestive of an ergodic-like spectral diffusion of TLSs dominating T 1, and offer a promising path to more rapid T 1 characterization for device screening and process optimization. |
