In a transmission line, a thickness of a second section is smaller than that of a first section and of a third section. A center of the second section is above a center of the first section and a center of the third section in a laminated body up-down direction. A distance between a second signal conductor layer and a neutral plane of the second section is shorter than a distance between a first signal conductor layer and a neutral plane of the second section and a distance between a third signal conductor layer and a neutral plane of the second section in the laminated body up-down direction. A length of the second signal conductor layer between first and second interlayer connection conductors is equal to or less than about ½ of a wavelength of a high-frequency signal transmitted by the transmission line.

A quantum computer includes a refrigeration system under vacuum including a containment vessel, a qubit chip contained within a refrigerated vacuum environment defined by the containment vessel. The quantum computer further includes a plurality of interior electromagnetic waveguides and a plurality of exterior electromagnetic waveguides. The quantum computer further includes a hermetic connector assembly operatively connecting the interior electromagnetic waveguides to the exterior electromagnetic waveguides while maintaining the refrigerated vacuum environment.

The present invention relates to a cavity filter and, in particular, provides an advantage of preventing performance deterioration of an antenna device by efficiently absorbing an assembly tolerance which may occur due to assembly design and preventing an interruption of an electrical flow, by comprising: an RF signal connecting part provided to be spaced apart at a predetermined distance from an external member having an electrode pad formed on one surface thereof; a terminal part which electrically connects the electrode pad of the external member to the RF signal connecting part, while absorbing an assembly tolerance existing within the predetermined distance and simultaneously preventing an interruption of an electrical flow between the electrode pad and the RF signal connecting part; a dielectric body which is inserted into a terminal insertion hole so as to surround the outside of the terminal part; and an elastic member which has a portion of the edge supported by the dielectric body and which elastically supports the terminal part by means of an operation in which a hollow part is deformed in the vertical direction when an assembly force is transmitted to the terminal part supported to pass through the hollow part, wherein the terminal part comprises one terminal brought into contact with the electrode pad and the other terminal connected to the RF signal connecting part.

Transitional elements to offset a capacitive impedance in a transmission line are disclosed. Described are various examples of transitional elements in a multilayer substrate that introduce a transitional reactance to cancel the transmission line capacitive effects. The transitional elements reduce insertion loss.
