We study the hybrid system of a high-quality yttrium-iron-garnet (YIG) sphere magnetically coupled to a superconducting flux qubit via the magnetic fields created by two persistent-current quantum states. When the flux qubit is operated away from its sweet point, a coherent nonlinear two-magnon interaction can be predicted; that is, the qubit is excited by absorbing a pair of magnons.

Skyrmion qubits are a new highly promising logic element for quantum information processing. However, their scalability to multiple interacting qubits remains challenging. We propose a hybrid quantum setup with skyrmion qubits strongly coupled to nanomechanical cantilevers via magnetic coupling, which harnesses phonons as quantum interfaces for the manipulation of distant skyrmion qubits.
