Abstract

We propose a scheme to realize controllable quantum state transfer and entanglement generation among transmon qubits in the typical circuit QED setup based on adiabatic passage. Through designing the time-dependent driven pulses applied on the transmon qubits, we find that fast quantum sate transfer can be achieved between arbitrary two qubits and quantum entanglement among the qubits also can also be engineered. Furthermore, we numerically analyzed the influence of the decoherence on our scheme with the current experimental accessible systematical parameters. The result shows that our scheme is very robust against both the cavity decay and qubit relaxation, the fidelities of the state transfer and entanglement preparation process could be very high. In addition, our scheme is also shown to be insensitive to the inhomogeneous of qubit-resonator coupling strengths.

Fast population transfer and entanglement preparation among four superconducting flux qubits

Peng Xu, Shengmei Zhao

Abstract We propose a scheme whereby we optimized the driven pulses applied on qubits to realize fast and robust population of quantum state transfer and entanglement generation between four superconducting flux qubits based on adiabatic passage. The quantum state was transferred from one qubit to another directly with high fidelity through applying an inverted set of pulses. Moreover, the resident time of the quantum state populated on the qubits could be controlled by adjusting the time delay between the driven pulses during the transfer process. Analysis of the dynamics demonstrates that the scheme is insensitive to inhomogeneous qubit–resonator coupling, and even for large detuning regimes of the qubit–resonator interaction, high-fidelity quantum state transfer and entanglement generation can be obtained. Our results also show that the effect of decoherence due to resonator decay and qubit relaxation could be negligible with currently existing technology.

Microwave-activated quantum state transfer and entanglement generation among five to seven qubits

Zi-Han Qi, Zhi-Hang Sun, Peng Xu

Abstract We propose a scheme for the rapid and high-fidelity transmission of quantum states and the generation of entanglement among at least five qubits in a circuit quantum electrodynamics system, based on optimized microwave-driven pulses. By designing appropriate microwave pulses applied to the qubits, quantum state transfer among five or more qubits can be realized, enabling bidirectional transfer and control over the residence time of quantum states on any arbitrary qubit by adjusting the parameters of the driving pulses. Furthermore, by optimizing the microwave pulse parameters, the scheme facilitates the creation of entangled states involving five or more qubits in a time-efficient manner. Additionally, we evaluate the fidelity of the transferred quantum state and the generated entanglement, taking into account the effects of decoherence. The results demonstrate that the proposed scheme enables high-fidelity quantum state transfer and entanglement generation with minimal photon leakage from the cavity and energy relaxation of the qubits.

Generation of entangled states between two transmon qubits via invariant-based shortcuts with constant drivings

Xiao-Jing Lu, Zhi‐Bo Feng, Zheng‐Yin Zhao +2 more

Entanglement generation via optimal drivings is of significance for quantum information science and engineering. Here, an efficient scheme is proposed for creating entangled states between two transmon qubits via shortcuts to adiabaticity with constant Rabi drivings. Two three-level atoms of Cooper-pair box circuits are coupled to a common cavity field of transmission-line resonator and individually driven by adjustable classical microwaves. In the regime of large detuning, we obtain an effective three-state system consisting of qubits and cavity photons. By the invariant-based shortcuts with time-independent Rabi drivings, two-qubit entangled states can be rapidly induced from an easily prepared product state. Compared to the entanglement creation with time-dependent Rabi drivings, our protocol not only becomes more feasible in experiment but also needs shorter times. Moreover, high-fidelity quantum operations can be realized with the accessible decoherence rates. The scheme could pave a promising avenue towards optimal generation of entangled states between superconducting qubits.

Dissipative generation for steady-state entanglement of two transmons in circuit QED

Shuang He, Dan Liu, Minghao Li

We present a dissipative scheme to generate an entangled steady-state between two superconducting transmon qutrits separately embedded in two coupled transmission line resonators in a circuit quantum electrodynamics (QED) setup. In our scheme, the resonant qutrit-resonator interaction and photon hopping between resonators jointly induce asymmetric energy gaps in the dressed state subspaces. The coherent driving fields induce the specific dressed state transition and the dissipative processes lead to the gradual accumulation in the population of target state, combination of both drives the system into a steady-state entanglement. Numerical simulation shows that the maximally entangled state can be produced with high fidelity and strong robustness against the cavity decay and qutrit decay, and no requirements for accurate time control. The scheme is achievable with the current experimental technologies.

Fast generation of W state via superadiabatic-based shortcut in circuit quantum electrodynamics*

Xuemei Wang, Anqi Zhang, Peng Xu +1 more

We propose a scheme to fast prepare the three-qubit W state via superadiabatic-based shortcuts in a circuit quantum electrodynamics (circuit QED) system. We derive the effective Hamiltonian to suppress the unwanted transitions between different eigenstates by counterdiabatic driving, and obtain the W state with high-fidelity based on the superadiabatic passage. The numerical simulation results demonstrate that the proposed scheme can accelerate the evolution, and is more efficient than that with the adiabatic passage. In addition, the proposed scheme is robust to the decoherence caused by the resonator decay and qubit relaxation, and does not need additional parameters, which could be feasible in experiment.

Generating microwave photon Fock states in a circuit QED via invariant-based shortcuts to adiabaticity

Run‐Ying Yan, Zhi‐Bo Feng

Abstract Optimal generation of photon Fock states is of significance to quantum science and technology. Here we develop a theoretical scheme for fast generating microwave photon Fock states in a circuit quantum electrodynamics (QED) via invariant-based shortcuts to adiabaticity. A superconducting transmon qubit is dispersively coupled to a cavity field of transmission line resonator. Two classical drivings are applied to a composite system, consisting of a transmon qubit and cavity field. In the two-photon resonance with a large intermediate-level detuning, a single-photon Fock state can be fast created by inversely engineering Rabi couplings. With the assistance of auxiliary driving, qubit state can be initialized for inducing multi-photon Fock states in the shortcut manner. Due to negligible leakage effects and high robustness, our scheme offers a potential way to rapidly prepare photon Fock states with a superconducting qubit in circuit QED.
