Competing interests
: Authors B.L.T.P. and R.M. declare a competing interest in the form of a utility patent application, FABRICATION OF NORMAL CONDUCTING OR LOW-GAP ISLANDS FOR DOWNCONVERSION OF PAIR-BREAKING PHONONS IN SUPERCONDUCTING QUANTUM CIRCUITS (application number 17/469,380), filed by the Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation on September 8, 2021. B.L.T.P. and R.M. are the sole inventors on the application, which is currently pending. The invention covered by the patent application concerns the technique for fabricating the normal metal structures for phonon downconversion. This article describes experimental work by our two research groups demonstrating the effectiveness of this technique for phonon downconversion. The remaining authors declare no competing interests.
