Control of the populations and phases of two-level quantum systems by a single frequency-chirped laser pulse
摘要: We present an analytical electric field expression to simultaneously control the population and phase dynamics of two-level quantum systems. The presented electric field is obtained by a reverse engineering technique after the desired population and phase evolution pathways of the system have been specified. Upon application of this laser field, the system is driven from an arbitrary quantum state superposition to the desired population distribution; meanwhile the phase of one of the states proceeds according to a predefined path. The robustness of the engineered electric field is demonstrated by numerical simulations on the example of the 3s → 3p transition of atomic sodium. Furthermore, the limitations of the presented technique, which arise due to the application of the rotating wave approximation, are thoroughly analyzed and discussed.

Low-frequency charge noise in Si/SiGe quantum dots
摘要: Electron spins in silicon have long coherence times and are a promising qubit platform. However, electric field noise in semiconductors poses a challenge for most single- and multiqubit operations in quantum-dot spin qubits. We investigate the dependence of low-frequency charge noise spectra on temperature and aluminum-oxide gate dielectric thickness in Si/SiGe quantum dots with overlapping gates. We find that charge noise increases with aluminum-oxide thickness. We also find strong dot-to-dot variations in the temperature dependence of the noise magnitude and spectrum. These findings suggest that each quantum dot experiences noise caused by a distinct ensemble of two-level systems, each of which has a nonuniform distribution of thermal activation energies. Taken together, our results suggest that charge noise in Si/SiGe quantum dots originates at least in part from a nonuniform distribution of two-level systems near the surface of the semiconductor.

Detuning-induced stimulated Raman adiabatic passage in two-level systems with permanent dipole moments
摘要: The detuning-induced stimulated Raman adiabatic passage (D-STIRAP) in two-level systems with permanent dipole moments (PDMs) is investigated. Based on a transformed Schr?dinger equation, we discuss the coherence generation under the one- and two-photon excitations, respectively. In the one-photon excitation, our analysis shows that the envelope of the pump pulse gets modulated in presence of the PDMs. The modulation becomes stronger while the difference between the PDMs of the two levels becomes larger. Gradually, the adiabatic process of the D-STIRAP fails to complete and the robustness of the technique disappears. Therefore, parameters have to be chosen with care if maximum coherence is desired in systems with large or giant difference between the PDMs. Similar results can also be found in the two-photon excitation, although the influence of the PDMs on the D-STIRAP seems weaker compared with that in the one-photon excitation case. Finally, we point out that the negative role of the PDMs can be effectively avoided by simply choosing longer pulses instead and the D-STIRAP can be safely applied in two-level systems with PDMs.
