Abstract Lack of reproducibility hampers molecular devices integration into large-scale circuits. Thus, incorporating operando characterization can facilitate the understanding multiple features producing disparities in different devices.

Abstract Superconducting resonators are critical components in a wide range of quantum technologies, including high‐performance detectors and amplifiers. However, their performance is often limited by noise sensitivity issues caused two‐level systems (TLS) originated from oxide layers, such as , the device.
