An Analog of Optical Rabi Oscillation in Superconducting Josephson Circuits

Zhuoyuan Wang, Shi Yao Chong, Peng An +2 more

In cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED), the key physical systems include Fabry-Pérot cavity resonators and multilevel cold atoms. Since ultra-strong electromagnetic interaction between photons and quantized cavity modes occurs in cavity QED, many novel quantum optical effects such as optical Rabi oscillation, quantum collapse/revival of atomic-level population and atom-field quantum entanglement can be realized in such quantum microcavities. As is known in quantum optics, these schemes can be generalized to circuit QED, which is a circuit analog of cavity QED. Fundamental devices in circuit QED are superconducting coplanar waveguide microwave resonators and mesoscopic Cooper-pair boxes. Here, the coplanar waveguide resonator with photons stored can be identified as a resonant cavity and the Cooper-pair boxes with large electric dipoles play the role of multilevel cold atoms. Thus, all the quantum optical effects in conventional cavity QED can also be exhibited in the present superconducting circuit QED system. We consider the theoretical working mechanism of superconducting charge qubits based on tunable Josephson junction coupling. It can be found that an analog of optical Rabi oscillation in Cooper-pair boxes can be achieved by tuning an applied external magnetic field. Time evolution of energy levels in a Cooper-pair box, which is manipulated by a time-dependent magnetic flux through its Josephson-junction ring, is studied within the framework of time-dependent quantum mechanics.

Two‐Qubit State Swap and Entanglement Creation in a Superconducting Circuit QED via Counterdiabatic Drivings

Run‐Ying Yan, Zhi‐Bo Feng

Abstract Optimal coherent control of many qubits is critical to quantum information processing. Here, an efficient scheme is proposed for implementing state swap and creating an entanglement with two superconducting qubits in a circuit quantum electrodynamics (QED). Two qutrits of Cooper‐pair box (CPB) circuits are placed into a cavity field and are driven by individual classical microwaves. In the two‐photon resonance with a large detuning, each CPB is reduced into a qubit effectively. Within a composite system composed of qubit states and cavity photons, two‐qubit state swap and entanglement can be fast obtained using the technique of shortcuts to adiabaticity with counterdiabatic drivings. Benefited from the shorter duration times and less sensitivity to timing errors and parameter imperfections, high‐fidelity quantum operations can be performed with the accessible decoherence rates. The present protocol could offer a feasible route towards optimized operations on superconducting qubits in a circuit QED.

Theory of Microwave Parametric Down-Conversion and Squeezing Using Circuit QED

Kyungsun Moon, S. M. Girvin

We study theoretically the parametric down-conversion and squeezing of microwaves using cavity quantum electrodynamics of a superconducting Cooper-pair box (CPB) qubit located inside a transmission line resonator. The nonlinear susceptibility chi2 describing three-wave mixing can be tuned by dc gate voltage applied to the CPB and vanishes by symmetry at the charge degeneracy point. We show that the coherent coupling of different cavity modes through the qubit can generate a squeezed state. Based on parameters realized in recent successful circuit QED experiments, squeezing of 95% approximately 13 dB below the vacuum noise level should be readily achievable.
