Quantum resonant effect of the strongly-driven spin-boson model

Abstract

In this paper we discuss both analytically and numerically the rich quantum dynamics of the spin-boson model driven by a time-independent field of photon. Interestingly, we predict a new Rabi oscillation, whose period is inversely proportional to the driving amplitude. More surprisingly, some nonzero resonant peaks are found for some special values of the \emph{strong} driving regime. Moreover, for the different resonant positions, the peaks have different values. Thus, an important application of this resonance effect is to realize the precision measurement of the relative parameters in experiment. We also illustrate that this resonant effect arises from the interference of the nontrivial periodic phase factors induced by the evolution of the coherent states in two different subspaces. Our predictions may be, in principle, observed in the solid-state cavity quantum electrodynamics with the ultrastrong coupling if the driving magnitude of the photon field is sufficiently large.

Non-Markovian coherence dynamics of a driven spin-boson model: Damped quantum-beat or large-amplitude coherence oscillation

Xiufeng Cao, Hang Zheng

The dynamics of a driven spin-boson model is studied by means of the perturbation approach based on a unitary transformation. Analytical expressions for the population difference and the coherence of the two state system are obtained. The results show that for weak driving, the population difference displays damping coherent oscillation and/or damping quantum beat, depending on the initial preparation. The coherence exhibits damped oscillation with Rabi frequency. When driving is strong enough, the population difference exhibits undamped large-amplitude coherent oscillation. In addition, our theory leads to correct results in two limiting cases: without dissipation and without driving field.

Simulating Anisotropic quantum Rabi model via frequency modulation

Gangcheng Wang, Ruoqi Xiao, H. Z. Shen +2 more

Anisotropic quantum Rabi model is a generalization of quantum Rabi model, which allows its rotating and counter-rotating terms to have two different coupling constants. It provides us with a fundamental model to understand various physical features concerning quantum optics, solid-state physics, and mesoscopic physics. In this paper, we propose an experimental feasible scheme to implement anisotropic quantum Rabi model in a circuit quantum electrodynamics system via periodic frequency modulation. An effective Hamiltonian describing the tunable anisotropic quantum Rabi model can be derived from a qubit-resonator coupling system modulated by two periodic driving fields. All effective parameters of the simulated system can be adjusted by tuning the initial phases, the frequencies and the amplitudes of the driving fields. We show that the periodic driving is able to drive a coupled system in dispersive regime to ultrastrong coupling regime, and even deep-strong coupling regime. The derived effective Hamiltonian allows us to obtain pure rotating term and counter-rotating term. Numerical simulation shows that such effective Hamiltonian is valid in ultrastrong coupling regime, and stronger coupling regime. Moreover, our scheme can be generalized to the multi-qubit case. We also give some applications of the simulated system to the Schrödinger cat states and quantum gate generalization. The presented proposal will pave a way to further study the stronger anisotropic Rabi model whose coupling strength is far away from ultrastrong coupling and deep-strong coupling regimes in quantum optics.

Bloch–Siegert oscillations in the Rabi model with an amplitude-modulated driving field

A. P. Saǐko, S A Markevich, Ryhor Fedaruk

Abstract We study the coherent dynamics of a qubit excited by an amplitude-modulated electromagnetic field under the Rabi resonance when the frequency of the low-frequency modulation field matches the Rabi frequency in the high-frequency field. Due to the destructive interference of multiple photon processes within the ultrastrong coupling between the qubit and the low-frequency driving field, Rabi oscillations result exclusively from the Bloch–Siegert effect. It is directly observed in the time-resolved coherent dynamics as the Bloch–Siegert oscillation. In this case, triplets in the Fourier spectra of the coherent response are transformed into doublets with the splitting between the lines equal to twice the Bloch–Siegert shift. These unusual properties are demonstrated in the conditions of experiments with a nitrogen vacancy center in the diamond.

Photon and spin dependence of the resonance line shape in the strong coupling regime

Seiji Miyashita, Tatsuhiko Shirai, Takashi Mori +3 more

We study the quantum dynamics of a spin ensemble coupled to cavity photons. Recently, related experimental results have been reported, showing the existence of the strong coupling regime in such systems. We study the eigenenergy distribution of the multi-spin system (following the Tavis-Cummings model) which shows a peculiar structure as a function of the number of cavity photons and of spins. We study how this structure causes changes in the spectrum of the admittance in the linear response theory, and also the frequency dependence of the excited quantities in the stationary state under a probing field. In particular, we investigate how the structure of the higher excited energy levels changes the spectrum from a double-peak structure (the so-called vacuum field Rabi splitting) to a single peak structure. We also point out that the spin dynamics in the region of the double-peak structure corresponds to recent experiments using cavity ringing while in region of the single peak structure, it corresponds to the coherent Rabi oscillation in a driving electromagnetic filed. Using a standard Lindblad type mechanism, we study the effect of dissipations on the line width and separation in the computed spectra. In particular, we study the relaxation of the total spin in the general case of a spin ensemble in which the total spin of the system is not specified. The theoretical results are correlated with experimental evidence of the strong coupling regime, achieved with a spin 1/2 ensemble.

Rabi oscillations induced by nonresonant gyrating drive

Baksa Kolok, András Pályi

Coherent control of two-level quantum systems is typically achieved using resonant driving fields, forming the basis for qubit operations. Here, we report a mechanism for inducing complete Rabi oscillations in monochromatically driven two-level quantum systems, when the drive frequency is much larger than the Larmor frequency of the qubit. This effect$\unicode{x2015}$Rabi oscillations induced by nonresonant gyrating drive (RING)$\unicode{x2015}$requires a gyrating control field, i.e., an elliptic drive trajectory that encloses a nonzero area per cycle. We illustrate the effect with numerical simulations, and provide an analytical understanding via a simple effective Hamiltonian obtained from Floquet theory and perturbation theory. We show that RING enables coherent oscillations without relying on resonant energy exchange, allows for high-pass noise filtering, provides access to non-Abelian phases in finite magnetic fields. We detail a realization in electrically driven spin-orbit qubits and argue that the RING mechanism enables amplification of the Rabi frequency using the same gate voltage amplitudes at higher drive frequencies. Our results broaden the landscape of quantum control techniques, by highlighting a pathway to achieving coherent oscillations under off-resonant driving conditions.

Analytical study of quantum-feedback-enhanced Rabi oscillations

Julia Kabuß, Dmitry O. Krimer, Stefan Rotter +3 more

We present an analytical solution of the single-photon quantum feedback in a cavity quantum electrodynamics system based on a half-cavity setup coupled to a structured continuum. Our exact analytical expression constitutes an important benchmark for quantum-feedback models and allows us to unravel the necessary conditions for the previously reported numerical result that a single-emitter-cavity system, which is initially in the weak-coupling regime, can be driven into the strong-coupling regime via the proposed quantum-feedback mechanism [A. Carmele et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 110, 013601 (2013)]. We specify the phase relations between the cavity mode and the delay time and state explicitly the theoretical limit for a feedback effect in the single-photon regime. Via the photon-path representation, we prove that the stabilization phenomenon relies on a destructive interference effect and we discuss the stabilization time in the weak- and strong-coupling limits.
