Metamaterial transmission line resonators fabricated from superconducting thin films can be designed to exhibit novel mode spectra like a high density of modes in the same frequency range where superconducting qubits are typically operated. We demonstrate the mode spectrum of a metamaterial resonator made of single layer of Nb and the coupling quality factor of the modes. We also present a series of low-temperature measurements of such a superconducting metamaterial resonator coupled to a flux-tunable transmon qubit. We observe Rabi vacuum crossing when performing transmission measurement of the metamaterial resonator as we tune the qubit frequency through many of the metamaterial resonances and we are able to track the qubit using a separate conventional resonator to read out the qubit state.
