Confining the state of light to a quantum manifold by engineered two-photon loss
Zaki Leghtas, Steven Touzard, Ioan M. Pop +12
Physical systems usually exhibit quantum behavior, such as superpositions and entanglement, only when they are sufficiently decoupled from a lossy environment. Paradoxically, a spe…
Deterministic protocol for mapping a qubit to coherent state superpositions in a cavity
Zaki Leghtas, Gerhard Kirchmair, Brian Vlastakis +3
We introduce a new gate that transfers an arbitrary state of a qubit into a superposition of two quasi-orthogonal coherent states of a cavity mode, with opposite phases. This qcMAP…
Black-box superconducting circuit quantization
Simon E. Nigg, Hanhee Paik, Brian Vlastakis +6
We present a semi-classical method for determining the effective low-energy quantum Hamiltonian of weakly anharmonic superconducting circuits containing mesoscopic Josephson juncti…
