Sensitivity to parameters of STIRAP in a Cooper Pair Box

چکیده
The rapid experimental progress in the field of superconducting nanocircuits gives rise to an increasing quest for advanced quantum-control techniques for these macroscopically coherent systems. Here we demonstrate theoretically that stimulated Raman adiabatic passage (STIRAP), a well-established method in quantum optics, should be possible with the quantronium setup of a Cooperpair box. We find the parameters which optimize the procedure and show how the scheme appears to be robust against decoherence and should be realizable even with the existing technology.

Quantum Measurement of a Coupled Nanomechanical Resonator—Cooper-Pair Box System
We show two effects as a result of considering the second-order correction to the spectrum of a nanomechanical resonator electrostatically coupled to a Cooper-pair box. The spectrum of the Cooper-pair box is modified in a way which depends on the Fock state of the resonator. Similarly, the frequency of the resonator becomes dependent upon the state of the Cooper-pair box. We consider whether th...
متن کاملMechanical Cooper pair transportation as a source of long-distance superconducting phase coherence.
Transportation of Cooper pairs by a movable single Cooper-pair box placed between two remote superconductors is shown to establish coherent coupling between them. This coupling is due to entanglement of the movable box with the leads and is manifested in the suppression of quantum fluctuations of the relative phase of the order parameters of the leads. It can be probed by attaching a high resis...
متن کاملObservation of quantum capacitance in the Cooper-pair transistor.
We have fabricated a Cooper-pair transistor (CPT) with parameters such that for appropriate voltage biases, it behaves essentially like a single Cooper-pair box (SCB). The effective capacitance of a SCB can be defined as the derivative of the induced charge with respect to gate voltage and has two parts, the geometric capacitance, C(geom), and the quantum capacitance C(Q). The latter is due to ...

Abstract: Temperature effect on quantum tunneling in a Cooper-pair-box coupled to a quantum oscillator is studied by both numerical and analytical calculations. It is found that, in strong coupling regions, coherent tunneling of a Cooper-pair-box can be destroyed by its coupling to a quantum oscillator and the tunneling becomes thermally activated as the temperature rises, leading to failure of...
متن کاملEntanglement and decoherence of a micromechanical resonator via coupling to a Cooper-pair box.
We analyze the quantum dynamics of a micromechanical resonator capacitively coupled to a Cooper-pair box. With appropriate quantum state control of the Cooper box, the resonator can be driven into a superposition of spatially separated states. The Cooper box can also be used to probe the decay of the resonator superposition state due to environmental decoherence.
