We have studied the microwave response of a single Cooper-pair transistor (CPT) coupled to a lumped-element microwave resonator. The resonance frequency of this circuit, $f_{r}$, was measured as a function of the charge $n_{g}$ induced on the CPT island by the gate electrode, and the phase difference across the CPT, $phi_{B}$, which was controlled by the magnetic flux in the superconducting loop containing the CPT. The observed $f_{r}(n_{g},phi_{B})$ dependences reflect the variations of the CPT Josephson inductance with $n_{g}$ and $phi_{B}$ as well as the CPT excitation when the microwaves induce transitions between different quantum states of the CPT. The results are in excellent agreement with our simulations based on the numerical diagonalization of the circuit Hamiltonian. This agreement over the whole range of $n_{g}$ and $phi_{B}$ is unexpected, because the relevant energies vary widely, from 0.1K to 3K. The observed strong dependence $f_{r}(n_{g},phi_{B})$ near the resonance excitation of the CPT provides a tool for sensitive charge measurements.

The parity modulation of the ground state of a superconducting island is a direct consequence of the presence of the Cooper pair condensate preferring an even number of charge carriers. The addition energy of an odd, unpaired quasiparticle equals to
the superconducting gap, $Delta$, suppressing single electron hopping in the low temperature limit. Controlling the quasiparticle occupation is of fundamental importance for superconducting qubits as single electron tunneling results in decoherence. In particular, topological quantum computation relies on the parity control and readout of Majorana bound states. Here we present parity modulation for the first time of a niobium titanite nitride (NbTiN) Cooper-pair transistor coupled to aluminium (Al) leads. We show that this circuit is compatible with the magnetic field requirement in the range of 100 mT of inducing topological superconductivity in spin-orbit coupled nanowires. Our observed parity lifetime exceeding 1 minute is several orders of magnitude higher than the required gate time of flux-controlled braiding of Majorana states. Our findings readily demonstrate that a NbTiN island can be parity-controlled and therefore provides a good platform for superconducting coherent circuits operating in a magnetic field.
We describe and characterize a microwave setup to probe the Andreev levels of a superconducting atomic contact. The contact is part of a superconducting loop inductively coupled to a superconducting coplanar resonator. By monitoring the resonator ref
lection coefficient close to its resonance frequency as a function of both flux through the loop and frequency of a second tone we perform spectroscopy of the transition between two Andreev levels of highly transmitting channels of the contact. The results indicate how to perform coherent manipulation of these states.
We demonstrate coherent tunable coupling between a superconducting phase qubit and a lumped element resonator. The coupling strength is mediated by a flux-biased RF SQUID operated in the non-hysteretic regime. By tuning the applied flux bias to the R
F SQUID we change the effective mutual inductance, and thus the coupling energy, between the phase qubit and resonator . We verify the modulation of coupling strength from 0 to $100 MHz$ by observing modulation in the size of the splitting in the phase qubits spectroscopy, as well as coherently by observing modulation in the vacuum Rabi oscillation frequency when on resonance. The measured spectroscopic splittings and vacuum Rabi oscillations agree well with theoretical predictions.
We use radio-frequency reflectometry to measure quasiparticle tunneling rates in the single-Cooper-pair-transistor. Devices with and without quasiparticle traps in proximity to the island are studied. A $10^2$ to $10^3$-fold reduction in the quasipar
ticle tunneling rate onto the island is observed in the case of quasiparticle traps. In the quasiparticle trap samples we also measure a commensurate decrease in quasiparticle tunneling rate off the island.
The advent of quantum optical techniques based on superconducting circuits has opened new regimes in the study of the non-linear interaction of light with matter. Of particular interest has been the creation of non-classical states of light, which ar
e essential for continuous-variable quantum information processing, and could enable quantum-enhanced measurement sensitivity. Here we demonstrate a device consisting of a superconducting artificial atom, the Cooper pair transistor, embedded in a superconducting microwave cavity that may offer a path toward simple, continual production of non-classical photons. By applying a dc voltage to the atom, we use the ac Josephson effect to inject photons into the cavity. The backaction of the photons on single-Cooper-pair tunneling events results in a new regime of simultaneous quantum coherent transport of Cooper pairs and microwave photons. This single-pair Josephson laser offers great potential for the production of amplitude-squeezed photon states and a rich environment for the study of the quantum dynamics of nonlinear systems.
