Rabi oscillations in a Josephson-junction charge two-level system.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We investigated temporal behavior of an artificial two-level system driven by a strong oscillating field; namely, quantum-state evolution between two charge states in a small Josephson-junction circuit irradiated with microwaves. Rabi oscillations corresponding to 0-, 1-, and 2-photon resonances were observed. As a function of microwave amplitude, the Rabi frequencies followed a first-kind Bessel function of the corresponding order to the number of photons.

Decoherence in josephson phase qubits from junction resonators.
Although Josephson junction qubits show great promise for quantum computing, the origin of dominant decoherence mechanisms remains unknown. Improving the operation of a Josephson junction based phase qubit has revealed microscopic two-level systems or resonators within the tunnel barrier that cause decoherence. We report spectroscopic data that show a level splitting characteristic of coupling ...
متن کاملDecoherence of a Josephson qubit due to coupling to two-level systems
Noise and decoherence are major obstacles to the implementation of Josephson junction qubits in quantum computing. Recent experiments suggest that two-level systems TLS in the oxide tunnel barrier are a source of decoherence. We explore two decoherence mechanisms in which these two-level systems lead to the decay of Rabi oscillations that result when Josephson junction qubits are subjected to s...
متن کاملRabi oscillations in a large Josephson-junction qubit.
We have designed and operated a circuit based on a large-area current-biased Josephson junction whose two lowest energy quantum levels are used to implement a solid-state qubit. The circuit allows measurement of the qubit states with a fidelity of 85% while providing sufficient decoupling from external sources of relaxation and decoherence to allow coherent manipulation of the qubit state, as d...
متن کاملClassical analogs for Rabi-oscillations, Ramsey-fringes, and spin- echo in Josephson junctions
We investigate the results of recently published experiments on the quantum behavior of Josephson circuits in terms of the classical modelling based on the resistively and capacitivelyshunted (RCSJ) junction model. Our analysis shows evidence for a close analogy between the nonlinear behavior of a pulsed microwave-driven Josephson junction at low temperature and low dissipation and the experime...
متن کاملRabi oscillations and macroscopic quantum superposition states
A two-level atom interacting with a single radiation mode is considered, without the rotating-wave approximation, in the strong coupling regime. It is shown that, in agreement with the recent results on Rabi oscillations in a Josephson junction (Y. Nakamura, Yu. A. Pashkin and J. S. Tsai, Phys. Rev. Lett. 87, 246601 (2001)), the Rabi frequency is indeed proportional to first kind integer order ...
