Dynamical decoupling has been shown to be effective in reducing gate errors in most quantum computation platforms and is therefore projected to play an essential role in future fault-tolerant
constructions. In superconducting circuits, however, it has proven difficult to utilize the benefits of dynamical decoupling. In this work, we present a theoretical proposal that incorporates a continuous version of dynamical decoupling, namely spin locking, with a coupler-based CZ gate for transmons and provide analytical and numerical results that demonstrate its effectiveness.
