Readout strength dependence of state projection in superconducting qubit

Kosuke Kakuyanagi, Nakano, H., Kagei, S. +4 more

We have controlled the measurement strength of the qubit readout process by using a Josephson bifurcation amplifier (JBA : an AC-driven SQUID). The optimum readout pulse changes the superposition state into an eigenstate. To clarify how a sufficiently strong measurement causes a projection phenomenon, we have studied the projection conditions in the JBA readout. We found that the projection occurs above the pulse height at which visibility starts to appear. Furthermore, the projection continues to occur as readout strength increases, even though the visibility vanishes. This result helps us understanding the JBA readout process.

Characterization and Control of Measurement-Induced Dephasing on Superconducting Flux Qubit with a Josephson Bifurcation Amplifier

Kosuke Kakuyanagi, Yuichiro Matsuzaki, Tatsuya Baba +3 more

Quantum measurements play a central role in quantum information processing. Understanding the mechanism of the quantum measurements is essential to both improve the visibility of the readout and decrease the projection error during measurement. Here, we describe and demonstrate an experimental protocol for quantifying a measurement backaction when we readout a superconducting flux qubit using a Josephson bifurcation amplifier. The coupling with the Josephson bifurcation amplifier induces a dephasing on the flux qubit during the readout. We have succeeded in estimating and controlling the strength of such a measurement-induced dephasing by changing the pulse height of the microwave driving. Our results are crucial for designing a suitable quantum readout technique for the realization of practical quantum devices.
