Abstract

We studied the two-qubit quantum Rabi model and found its dark state solutions with at most N photons. One peculiar case presents when $N=3$, which has constant eigenenergy in the whole coupling regime and leads to level crossings within the same parity subspace. We also discovered asymptotic solutions with at most $N=2i+3$ $(i=1,2,3,\dots)$ photons, and constant eigenenergy $N\hbar ω$ when coupling $g$ becomes much larger than photon frequency $ω$. Although generally all photon number states are involved in the two-qubit quantum Rabi model, such $N$-photon solutions exist and may have applications in quantum information processing with ultrastrong couplings.

Dark-state solution and symmetries of the two-qubit multimode asymmetric quantum Rabi model

Lei, Ze-Feng, Junlong Tian, Peng, Jie

We study the two-qubit asymmetric quantum Rabi model (AQRM) and find its dark-state solution. Such solutions have at most one photon and constant eigenenergy in the whole coupling regime, causing level crossings in the spectrum, although there is no explicit conserved quantity except energy. We find an operator in the eigenenergy basis to label all the degeneracies with its eigenvalues, and compare it with the well-known hidden symmetry which exists when bias parameter $ε$ is a multiple of half of the resonator frequency $ω$. Extended to the multimode case, we find symmetries related with conserved bosonic number operators, which also cause level crossings. This provides a perspective for symmetry studies on generalized Rabi models.

Abstract We study the two-qubit asymmetric quantum Rabi model (AQRM) and find its dark-state solution. Such solutions have at most one photon and constant eigenenergy in the whole coupling regime, causing level crossings in the spectrum, although there is no explicit conserved quantity except for energy. We find an operator in the eigenenergy basis to label all the degeneracies with its eigenvalues, and compare it with the well-known hidden symmetry which exists when bias parameter ϵ is a multiple of half of the resonator frequency ω . Extended to the multimode case, we find symmetries related with conserved bosonic number operators, which also cause level crossings. This paves the way for further symmetry studies on generalized Rabi models.

Solution of the two-qubit quantum Rabi model and its exceptional eigenstates

Jie Peng, Zhongzhou Ren, Daniel Braak +4 more

We have studied the two-qubit quantum Rabi model in the asymmetric case and its generalizations with dipole and Heisenberg-type qubit-qubit interactions. The solutions are obtained analytically with eigenstates given in terms of the extended coherent states or photon number states. For identical qubit-photon couplings, a novel type of quasi-exact solution which exists for all coupling values with constant eigenenergy is found, leading to level crossings within the same parity subspace even for non-identical qubits. In contrast to the quasi-exact eigenstates of the single-qubit model, these exceptional eigenstates are formed by just a few Fock states (photon number bounded from above at one or three), and the condition for them depends only on a fine-tuning of the qubit level splittings with respect to the photon energy, but not on the coupling to the photon field if the qubit-qubit interaction is not taken into consideration. This makes them excellent candidates for direct experimental observation within circuit quantum electrodynamics (QED) and application in single photon experiments. Besides, exceptional solutions with finite photon numbers N are also found.

One-Photon Solutions to the Multiqubit Multimode Quantum Rabi Model for Fast W -State Generation

Jie Peng, Jun‐Cong Zheng, Jing Yu +6 more

General solutions to the quantum Rabi model involve subspaces with an unbounded number of photons. However, for the multiqubit multimode case, we find special solutions with at most one photon for an arbitrary number of qubits and photon modes. Such solutions exist for arbitrary single qubit-photon coupling strength with constant eigenenergy, while still being qubit-photon entangled states. Taking advantage of their peculiarities and the reach of the ultrastrong coupling regime, we propose an adiabatic scheme for the fast and deterministic generation of a two-qubit Bell state and arbitrary single-photon multimode W states with nonadiabatic error less than 1%. Finally, we propose a superconducting circuit design to catch and release the W states, and shows the experimental feasibility of the multimode multiqubit quantum Rabi model.

Dark-like states for the multi-qubit and multi-photon Rabi models

Jie Peng, Chenxiong zheng, Guangjie Guo +7 more

Abstract There are special solutions, the well-known dark states, to the even-qubit Dicke models, which are the products of two-qubit singlets and a Fock state, where the qubits are decoupled from the photon field. These spin singlets can be used to store quantum correlations since they preserve entanglement even under dissipation, driving and dipole-dipole interactions. One of the features for these ‘dark states’ is that their eigenenergies are independent of the qubit-photon coupling strength. Here we have obtained a novel kind of exceptional solution—‘dark-like states’ for the multi-qubit and multi-photon Rabi models, whose eigenenergies are also constant in the whole coupling regime. But unlike the ‘dark states’, the qubits and photon field are coupled. Furthermore, the photon numbers are bounded from above commonly at 1, which is different from the one-qubit case. The existence conditions of these exceptional solutions are simpler than the exact isolated solutions, and may be fine tuned in experiments. While solutions to the single-qubit and multi-photon Rabi model exist only if the photon number M ⩽ 2 and the coupling strength is below a certain critical value, the dark-like eigenstates for the multi-qubit and multi-photon Rabi model exist regardless of these constraints. In view of these properties of the dark-like states, they may find similar applications as ‘dark states’ in quantum information.

Regular and exceptional spectra of the two-qubit quantum Rabi model

Jie Peng, Zhongzhou Ren, Daniel Braak +4 more

Two-qubit system is the foundation of constructing the universal quantum gate. We have studied the two-qubit Rabi model for the general case and its generalizations with dipole, XXX and XYZ Heisenberg qubit-qubit interactions, which are commonly used in quantum computation. Their solutions are presented analytically with eigenstates can be obtained in terms of extended coherent states or Fock states and applied to the construction of the ultrafast two-qubit quantum gate in circuit QED and quantum state storage and transfer. Some novel kinds of quasi-exact solutions are found for specific sets of parameters, causing level crossings within the same parity subspace, which do not appear in the regular spectrum, indicating its non-integrability. These eigenstates are very interesting for quantum computing and single photon experiments because they are formed by just a few Fock states, and in some cases, with at most one photon. They are also easy to prepare, since they exist for all qubit-photon coupling values with constant eigenenergy and the qubit energy splittings can be fine tuned in the experiment in contrast to the coupling.
