Dephasing of qubits by transverse low-frequency noise
Yuriy Makhlin, Alexander Shnirman
We analyze the dissipative dynamics of a two-level quantum system subject to low-frequency, e.g. 1/f noise, motivated by recent experiments with superconducting quantum circuits. W…
Renormalization of resonant tunneling in MOSFETs
D. Mozyrsky, I. Martin, A. Shnirman +1
We study tunneling between a localized defect state and a conduction band in the presence of strong electron-electron and electron-phonons interactions. We derive the tunneling rat…
Quantum Zeno effect in the Cooper-pair transport through a double-island Josephson system
Alexander Shnirman, Yuriy Makhlin
Motivated by recent experiments, we analyze transport of Cooper pairs through a double-island Josephson qubit. At low bias in a certain range of gate voltages coherent superpositio…
Ground state cooling of mechanical resonators
Ivar Martin, Alexander Shnirman, Lin Tian +1
We propose an application of a single Cooper pair box (Josephson qubit) for active cooling of nanomechanical resonators. Latest experiments with Josephson qubits demonstrated that…
Dissipation in Josephson qubits
Yuriy Makhlin, Gerd Schön, Alexander Shnirman
We discuss the dissipative dynamics of superconducting qubits in the applicability range of the Bloch equations and beyond.
Dephasing of solid-state qubits at optimal points
Yuriy Makhlin, Alexander Shnirman
Motivated by recent experiments with Josephson-junction circuits, we analyze the influence of various noise sources on the dynamics of two-level systems at optimal operation points…
