Dissipative entanglement generation between two driven qubits in circuit quantum electrodynamics

Abstract

An entangled state generation protocol for a system of two qubits driven with an ac signal and coupled through a resonator is introduced. We explain the mechanism of entanglement generation in terms of an interplay between unitary Landau-Zener-Stuckelberg (LZS) transitions induced for appropriate amplitudes and frequencies of the applied ac signal and dissipative processes dominated by photon loss. In this way, we found that the steady state of the system can be tuned to be arbitrarily close to a Bell state, which is independent of the initial state. Effective two-qubit Hamiltonians that reproduce the resonance patterns associated with LZS transitions are derived.

Dissipative entanglement generation between two qubits parametrically driven and coupled to a resonator

Sebastián Luciano Gallardo, Daniel Domı́nguez, María José Sánchez

An entangled-state generation protocol for a system of two qubits driven with an ac signal and coupled through a resonator is introduced. We explain the mechanism of entanglement generation in terms of an interplay between unitary Landau-Zener-St\"uckelberg (LZS) transitions, induced for appropriate frequencies and strong amplitudes of the applied ac signal and dissipative processes dominated by photon loss. In this way, we find that the steady state of the system can be tuned to be arbitrarily close to a Bell state, which is stable against photon loss. Effective two-qubit Hamiltonians that reproduce the resonance patterns associated with LZS transitions are derived.

Efficient steady-state-entanglement generation in strongly driven coupled qubits

Ana Laura Gramajo, Daniel Domı́nguez, María José Sánchez

We report on a mechanism to optimize the generation of steady-state entanglement in a system of coupled qubits driven by microwave fields. Due to the interplay between Landau-Zener-St\"uckelberg-Majorana pumping involving three levels and a subsequent fast relaxation channel, which is activated by tuning the qubits-reservoir couplings, a maximally entangled state can be populated. This mechanism does not require the fine tuning of multiphoton resonances but depends on the sign of the qubit-qubit coupling. In particular, we find that by a proper design of the system parameters and the driving protocol, the two-qubit steady-state concurrence can attain values close to 1 in a wide range of driving amplitudes. Our results may be useful to gain further insight into entanglement control and manipulation in dissipative quantum systems exposed to strong driving.

Landau-Zener-Stückelberg interferometry in dissipative circuit quantum electrodynamics

Mariano Bonifacio, Daniel Domı́nguez, María José Sánchez

We study Landau-Zener-St\"uckelberg (LZS) interferometry in a cQED architecture under the effects of dissipation. To be specific, we consider a superconducting qubit driven by a $\mathrm{dc}+\mathrm{ac}$ signal and coupled to a transmission line resonator, but our results are valid for general qubit-resonators devices. To take the environment into account, we assume that the resonator is coupled to an Ohmic quantum bath. The Floquet-Born-Markov master equation is numerically solved to obtain the dynamics of the system for an arbitrary amplitude of the drive and different timescales. We unveil important differences in the resonant patterns between the strong coupling and ultrastrong coupling regimes in the qubit-resonator interaction, which are mainly due to the magnitude of photonic gaps in the energy spectrum of the system. We identify in the LZS patterns the contribution of the qubit gap and the photonic gaps, showing that for large driving amplitudes the patterns present a weaving structure due to the combined intercrossing of the different gaps contributions.

Steady-state entanglement of two superconducting qubits engineered by dissipation

Florentin Reiter, Lars Tornberg, Göran Johansson +1 more

We present a scheme for the dissipative preparation of an entangled steady state of two superconducting qubits in a circuit quantum electrodynamics (QED) setup. Combining resonator photon loss---a dissipative process already present in the setup---with an effective two-photon microwave drive, we engineer an effective decay mechanism which prepares a maximally entangled state of the two qubits. This state is then maintained as the steady state of the driven, dissipative evolution. The performance of the dissipative state preparation protocol is studied analytically and verified numerically. In view of the experimental implementation of the presented scheme we investigate the effects of potential experimental imperfections and show that our scheme is robust to small deviations in the parameters. We find that high fidelities with the target state can be achieved both with state-of-the-art three-dimensional, as well as with the more commonly used two-dimensional transmons. The promising results of our study thus open a route for the demonstration of a highly entangled steady state in circuit QED.

Dissipation entanglement control of two coupled qubits via strong driving fields

M. V. Bastrakova, V. O. Munyaev

An analytical theory to calculate the dissipatively stable concurrence in the system of two coupled flux superconducting qubits in the strong driving field is developed. The conditions for the entanglement state generation and destruction during the formation of the multiphoton transitions regions due to the interference of Landau--Zener--Stückelberg--Majorana are found. Based on the solution of the Floquet--Markov equation, the technique is proposed to adjust the amplitudes of dc- and ac-fields for effective control of the entanglement between qubit states while taking into account the effects of the decoherence.

Entangling polaritons via dynamical Casimir effect in circuit quantum electrodynamics

Daniel Z. Rossatto, Simone Felicetti, Hodei Eneriz +3 more

We investigate theoretically how the dynamical Casimir effect can entangle quantum systems in different coupling regimes of circuit quantum electrodynamics, and show the robustness of such entanglement generation against dissipative effects, considering experimental parameters of current technology. We consider two qubit-resonator systems, which are coupled by a SQUID driven with an external magnetic field, and explore the entire range of coupling regimes between each qubit and its resonator. In this scheme, we derive a semianalytic explanation for the entanglement generation between both superconducting qubits when they are coupled to their resonators in the strong coupling regime. For the ultrastrong and deep strong coupling regimes, we design experimentally feasible theoretical protocols to generate maximally entangled polaritonic states.
