The problem of Rabi oscillations in a qubit coupled to a fluctuator and in contact with a heath bath is considered. A scheme is developed for taking into account both phase and energy relaxation in a phenomenological way, while taking full account of the quantum dynamics of the four-level system subject to a driving AC field. Significant suppression of the Rabi oscillations is found when the qubit and fluctuator are close to resonance. The effect of the fluctuator state on the read-out signal is discussed. This effect is shown to modify the observed signal significantly. This may be relevant to recent experiments by Simmonds et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 93, 077003 (2004)].

The act of measurement bridges the quantum and classical worlds by projecting a superposition of possible states into a single, albeit probabilistic, outcome. The time-scale of this instantaneous process can be stretched using weak measurements so th at it takes the form of a gradual random walk towards a final state. Remarkably, the interim measurement record is sufficient to continuously track and steer the quantum state using feedback. We monitor the dynamics of a resonantly driven quantum two-level system -- a superconducting quantum bit --using a near-noiseless parametric amplifier. The high-fidelity measurement output is used to actively stabilize the phase of Rabi oscillations, enabling them to persist indefinitely. This new functionality shows promise for fighting decoherence and defines a path for continuous quantum error correction.
Under resonant irradiation, a quantum system can undergo coherent (Rabi) oscillations in time. We report evidence for such oscillations in a _continuously_ observed three-Josephson-junction flux qubit, coupled to a high-quality tank circuit tuned to the Rabi frequency. In addition to simplicity, this method of_Rabi spectroscopy_ enabled a long coherence time of about 2.5 microseconds, corresponding to an effective qubit quality factor ~7000.
Superconducting qubits acting as artificial two-level atoms allow for controlled variation of the symmetry properties which govern the selection rules for single and multiphoton excitation. We spectroscopically analyze a superconducting qubit-resonat or system in the strong coupling regime under one- and two-photon driving. Our results provide clear experimental evidence for the controlled transition from an operating point governed by dipolar selection rules to a regime where one- and two-photon excitations of the artificial atom coexist. We find that the vacuum coupling between qubit and resonator can be straightforwardly extracted from the two-photon spectra where the detuned two-photon drive does not populate the relevant resonator mode significantly.
Tunneling two level systems (TLS), present in dielectrics at low temperatures, have been recently studied for fundamental understanding and superconducting device development. According to a recent theory by Burin textit{et al.}, the TLS bath of any amorphous dielectric experiences a distribution of Landau-Zener transitions if exposed to simultaneous fields. In this experiment we measure amorphous insulating films at millikelvin temperatures with a microwave field and a swept electric field bias using a superconducting resonator. We find that the maximum dielectric loss per microwave photon with the simultaneous fields is approximately the same as that in the equilibrium state, in agreement with the generic material theory. In addition, we find that the loss depends on the fields in a way which allows for the separate extraction of the TLS bath dipole moment and density of states. This method allows for the study of the TLS dipole moment in a diverse set of disordered films, and provides a technique for continuously inverting their population.
We have observed anomalous transport properties for a 50 nm Bi dot in the Coulomb-blockade regime. Over a range of gate voltages, Coulomb blockade peaks are suppressed at low bias, and dramatic structure appears in the current at higher bias. We prop ose that the state of the dot is determined self-consistently with the state of a nearby two-level system (TLS) to which it is electrostatically coupled. As a gate voltage is swept, the ground state alternates between states of the TLS, leading to skipped Coulomb-blockade peaks at low bias. At a fixed gate voltage and high bias, transport may occur through a cascade of excited states connected by the dynamic switching of the TLS.
