Superadiabatic population transfer in a three-level superconducting circuit

Antti P. Vepsäläinen, Sergey Danilin, Gheorghe Sorin Paraoanu

Adiabatic manipulation of the quantum state is an essential tool in modern quantum information processing. Here, we demonstrate the speedup of the adiabatic population transfer in a three-level superconducting transmon circuit by suppressing the spurious nonadiabatic excitations with an additional two-photon microwave pulse. We apply this superadiabatic method to the stimulated Raman adiabatic passage, realizing fast and robust population transfer from the ground state to the second excited state of the quantum circuit.

Superadiabatic stimulated Raman adiabatic passage between dressed states

Abstract Stimulated Raman adiabatic passage (STIRAP) is a widely used technique for efficient population transfer between quantum states. However, the adiabatic nature of STIRAP requires slow evolution, leading to long operation times, which limits its practical applications. The superadiabatic method has been introduced to accelerate the STIRAP process, but it often necessitates additional couplings between the initial and target states, which may not be available in the original Hamiltonian. In this work, we present a novel approach to implement superadiabatic STIRAP (sa-STIRAP) between dressed states in a three-level quantum system. By modulating the amplitude and phase of the original driving fields, the initial and target states in dressed-state space can be effectively coupled. This approach provides a practical means of realizing sa-STIRAP in experimental setups, making it convenient to accelerate adiabatic quantum state transfer.

Experimental demonstration of robustness under scaling errors for superadiabatic population transfer in a superconducting circuit

Shruti Dogra, Antti P. Vepsäläinen, Gheorghe Sorin Paraoanu

We study experimentally and theoretically the transfer of population between the ground state and the second excited state in a transmon circuit by the use of superadiabatic stimulated Raman adiabatic passage (saSTIRAP). We show that the transfer is remarkably resilient against variations in the amplitudes of the pulses (scaling errors), thus demostrating that the superadiabatic process inherits certain robustness features from the adiabatic one. In particular, we provide new evidence of a plateau that appears at high values of the counterdiabatic pulse strength, which goes beyond the usual framework of saSTIRAP. This article is part of the theme issue 'Shortcuts to adiabaticity: theoretical, experimental and interdisciplinary perspectives'.
