Gauging a quantum heat bath with dissipative Landau-Zener transitions.
We calculate the exact Landau-Zener transition probabilities for a qubit with an arbitrary linear coupling to a bath at zero temperature. The final quantum state exhibits a peculiar entanglement between the qubit and the bath. In the special case of diagonal coupling, the bath does not influence the transition probability, whatever the speed of the Landau-Zener sweep. It is proposed to use Land...
متن کاملBath-independent Transition Probabilities in the Dissipative Landau-zener Problem
We study Landau-Zener transitions of a two-level system that is coupled to a quantum heat bath at zero temperature. In particular, we reveal that for a whole class of models, the probability for a nonadiabatic transition is bath-independent.
متن کاملEntanglement creation in circuit QED via Landau–Zener sweeps
A qubit may undergo Landau–Zener transitions due to its coupling to one or several quantum harmonic oscillators. We show that for a qubit coupled to one oscillator, Landau–Zener transitions can be used for single-photon generation and for the controllable creation of qubit–oscillator entanglement, with state-of-the-art circuit QED as a promising realization. Moreover, for a qubit coupled to two...
متن کاملQuantum state preparation in circuit QED via Landau- Zener tunneling
– We study a qubit undergoing Landau-Zener transitions enabled by the coupling to a circuit-QED mode. Summing an infinite-order perturbation series, we determine the exact nonadiabatic transition probability for the qubit, being independent of the frequency of the QED mode. Possible applications are single-photon generation and the controllable creation of qubit-oscillator entanglement. Superco...
متن کاملObservation of macroscopic Landau – Zener transitions in a superconducting device
– A two-level system traversing a level anticrossing has a small probability to make a so-called Landau–Zener (LZ) transition between its energy bands, in deviation from simple adiabatic evolution. This effect takes on renewed relevance due to the observation of quantum coherence in superconducting qubits (macroscopic “Schrödinger cat” devices). We report an observation of LZ transitions in an ...
