In the superconducting charge qubit implementation of the qubit what I've understood is that we read a 1 if a Cooper pair has gone through the Josephson Junction into the "island" and we read a 0 if there is no Cooper pair. How come it's only possible that one Cooper pair passes the Josephson Junction? I don't really understand how this is a binary system as there seems to be more than two possibilities when one measures the system.

are you asking about dual rail encoding? if you are then this has some details : https://arxiv.org/abs/2307.08737 – unknown Nov 13 '23 at 18:28

No sorry, I'm just asking how a superconducting charge qubit actually works. – Omeglac Nov 19 '23 at 09:12
