We have fabricated and tested an Al/AlOx/Al dc SQUID phase qubit on a sapphire substrate with a qubit junction area 0.17 mu m(2) and critical current I-0 J1 = 1.4 mu A. The qubit is shunted by an interdigitated capacitor and isolated from the bias leads by an inductive isolation network using a larger Josephson junction with area 2 mu m(2) and critical current I-0,I-J2 = 29 mu A. Additional high-frequency filtering is provided by an on-chip LC filter, which consists of square spiral inductors and parallel plate SiNx capacitors. From detuned Rabi oscillation measurements, we estimate a relaxation time T-1 approximate to 400 ns and dephasing time T-Phi approximate to 1700 ns. Additionally, we observe that the qubit transition spectrum has multiple equally spaced subpeaks. These subpeaks are caused by coupling between the phase qubit and the LC filter, forming a Jaynes-Cummings system. Each individual subpeak corresponds to transitions with different photon numbers in the LC filter.
