Confinement of topological excitations into particle-like states - typically associated with theories of elementary particles - are known to occur in condensed matter systems, arising as domain-wall confinement in quantum spin chains. However, investigation of confinement in the condensed matter setting has rarely ventured beyond lattice spin systems. Here, we analyze the confinement of sine-Gordon solitons into mesonic bound states in a one-dimensional, quantum electronic circuit (QEC) array, constructed using experimentally-demonstrated circuit elements: Josephson junctions, capacitors and 0 - π qubits. The interactions occurring naturally in the QEC array, due to tunneling of Cooper-pairs and pairs of Cooper-pairs, give rise to a non-integrable, interacting, lattice model of quantum rotors. In the scaling limit, the latter is described by the quantum sine-Gordon model, perturbed by a cosine potential with a different periodicity. We compute the string tension of confinement of sine-Gordon solitons and the changes in the low-lying spectrum in the perturbed model. The scaling limit is reached faster for the QEC array compared to conventional spin chain regularizations, allowing high-precision numerical investigation of the strong-coupling regime of this non-integrable quantum field theory. Our results, obtained using the density matrix renormalization group method, could be verified in a quench experiment using state-of-the-art QEC technologies.
