Photon-induced Entanglement of Distant Mesoscopic Squid Rings
An experiment that involves two distant mesoscopic SQUID rings is studied. The superconducting rings are irradiated with correlated photons, which are produced by a single microwave source. Classically correlated (separable) and quantum mechanically correlated (entangled) microwaves are considered, and their effect on the Josephson currents is quantified. It is shown that the currents tunnellin...
متن کاملRelaxation of a Coherent Quantum System During Premeasurement.
Recent experiments on superconducting loops have demonstrated coherent superpositions between macroscopic quantum states. In the experiment of the superconducting persistent-current qubit, a dc SQUID measures the magnetic flux generated by the persistent currents of the macroscopic quantum states. Due to the inductive interaction between the qubit and the SQUID, the SQUID has various back effec...
متن کاملQuantitative study of macroscopic quantum tunneling in a dc SQUID: a system with two degrees of freedom.
To test whether the theory of macroscopic quantum tunneling (MQT) is applicable to systems with 2 degrees of freedom, we experimentally investigated the switching current distribution of a dc SQUID. Using sample parameters determined from measurements at T=4.2 K, we are able to make quantitative comparison to the theories from 8 mK to 4.2 K. The excellent agreement between the data and the MQT ...
متن کاملEvidence of two-dimensional macroscopic quantum tunneling of a current-biased dc SQUID.
The escape probability out of the superconducting state of a hysteretic dc SQUID has been measured at different values of the applied magnetic flux. At low temperatures, the escape current and the width of the probability distribution are temperature independent but they depend on flux. Experimental results do not fit the usual one-dimensional macroscopic quantum tunneling (MQT) law but are per...
متن کاملEffect of asymmetric quantum dot rings in electron transport through a quantum wire
The electronic conductance at zero temperature through a quantum wire with side-connected asymmetric quantum ring (as a scatter system) is theoretically studied using the non-interacting Hamiltonian Anderson tunneling method. In this paper we concentrate on the configuration of the quantum dot rings. We show that the asymmetric structure of QD-scatter system strongly influences the amplitude an...
