Summary

The standard MIT LL candle qubit has a nonuniform claw thickness. One of the assumptions in the current TransmonCross is that you have uniform claw thickness, so this design isn't possible in Qiskit Metal (before this PR!). This update is to give front-end users more control of their claw designs.

To illustrate what I mean here's a new potential design you can create.

And yes, it is backward compatible!

  • Increase customizability of TransmonCross claws.

Correct. If the user doesn't input ground_spacing_back or claw_width_back it'll default to a uniform style.

It's overall looking good to me, I'll plan to merge
