Gorini-Kossakowski-Sudarshan-Lindblad equation in different bases: application to driven-dissipative two- and multilevel systems

An open quantum system can be described by a master equation, of which one of the most popular is the Gorini-Kossakowski-Sudarshan-Lindblad (GKSL) equation. We revisit description of driven-dissipative quantum systems focusing on the appropriate choice of the system's basis and the respective transformations. We consider the GKSL equation in different bases and calculate the dynamics for a qubit and for a qudit. An appropriate choice of the basis is a fundamental problem for theoretical consideration of open quantum systems and provides an opportunity to obtain the desired evolution in practice.

Flux qubit-based detector of microwave photons

A theory of detection of microwave photons with a flux qubit-based detector is presented. We consider semiclassical approximation with the electromagnetic field being in a coherent state. Flux qubit is considered as a multilevel quantum system (qudit). By solving the Lindblad equation, we describe the time evolution of occupations of the qudit's levels for readout and reset stages of detection. When considering the reset stage, the time evolution is described by multiple avoided-level crossings, thus providing a multilevel Landau-Zener-Stuckelberg-Majorana (LZSM) problem. In addition to numerical calculations, we present an approximate solution for the description of the reset stage dynamics based on the adiabatic-impulse approximation and rate equation approach. Our theory may be useful for the theoretical description of driven-dissipative dynamics of qudits, including applications such as single-photon detection.

Interferometry of multi-level systems: rate-equation approach for a charge qudit

We theoretically describe a driven two-electron four-level double-quantum dot (DQD) tunnel coupled to a fermionic sea by using the rate-equation formalism. This approach allows to find occupation probabilities of each DQD energy level in a relatively simple way, compared to other methods. Calculated dependencies are compared with the experimental results. The system under study is irradiated by a strong driving signal and as a result, one can observe Landau-Zener-Stuckelberg-Majorana (LZSM) interferometry patterns which are successfully described by the considered formalism. The system operation regime depends on the amplitude of the excitation signal and the energy detuning, therefore, one can transfer the system to the necessary quantum state in the most efficient way by setting these parameters. Obtained results give insights about initializing, characterizing, and controlling the quantum system states.

Alternative fast quantum logic gates using nonadiabatic Landau-Zener-Stückelberg-Majorana transitions

A conventional realization of quantum logic gates and control is based on resonant Rabi oscillations of the occupation probability of the system. This approach has certain limitations and complications, like counter-rotating terms. We study an alternative paradigm for implementing quantum logic gates based on Landau-Zener-Stückelberg-Majorana (LZSM) interferometry with non-resonant driving and the alternation of adiabatic evolution and non-adiabatic transitions. Compared to Rabi oscillations, the main differences are a non-resonant driving frequency and a small number of periods in the external driving. We explore the dynamics of a multilevel quantum system under LZSM drives and optimize the parameters for increasing single- and two-qubit gates speed. We define the parameters of the external driving required for implementing some specific gates using the adiabatic-impulse model. The LZSM approach can be applied to a large variety of multi-level quantum systems and external driving, providing a method for implementing quantum logic gates on them.

Low-frequency spectroscopy for quantum multi-level systems

A periodically driven quantum system with avoided-level crossing experiences both non-adiabatic transitions and wave-function phase changes. These result in coherent interference fringes in the system's occupation probabilities. For qubits, with repelling energy levels, such interference, named after Landau-Zener-Stuckelberg-Majorana, displays arc-shaped resonance lines. We demonstrate that in the case of a multi-level system with an avoided-level crossing of the two lower levels, the shape of the resonances can change from convex arcs to concave heart-shaped and harp-shaped resonance lines. In this way, the shape of such resonance fringes is defined by the whole spectrum, providing insight on the slow-frequency system spectroscopy. As a particular example, we consider this for valley-orbit silicon quantum dots.
