Preparation of a superposition of squeezed coherent states of a cavity field via coupling to a superconducting charge qubit
The generation of nonclassical states of a radiation field has become
increasingly important in the past years given its various applications in
quantum communication. The feasibility of generating such nonclassical states
has been established in several branches of physics such as cavity
electrodynamics, trapped ions, quantum dots, atoms inside cavities and so on.
In this sense, we will discuss the issue of the generation of nonclassical
states in the context of a superconducting qubit in a microcavity. It has been
recently proposed a way to engineer quantum states using a SQUID charge qubit
inside a cavity with a controllable interaction between the cavity field and
the charge qubit. The key ingredients to engineer these quantum states are a
tunable gate voltage and a classical magnetic field applied to SQUID. Some
models including these ingredients and using some appropriate approximations
which allow for the linearization of the interaction and nonclassical states of
the field were generated. Since decoherence is known to affect quantum effects
uninterruptedly and decoherence process are works even when the quantum state
is being formed, therefore, it is interesting to envisage processes through
which quantum superpositions are generated as fast as possible. The decoherence
effect has been studied and quantified in the context of cavity QED where it is
shown that the more quantum is the superposition, more rapidly the
environmental effects occur during the process of creating the quantum state.
In the latter reference, we have succeeded in linearizing the Hamiltonian
through the application of an appropriate unitary transformation and for
certain values of the parameters involved, we have showed that it is possible
to obtain specific Hamiltonians. In this work we will use such approach for
preparing superposition of two squeezed coherent states.Comment: arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with arXiv:1302.5753,

Dynamics of a superconducting qubit coupled to the quantized cavity field: a unitary transformation approach
We present a novel approach for studying the dynamics of a superconducting
qubit in a cavity. We succeed in linearizing the Hamiltonian through the
application of an appropriate unitary transformation followed by a rotating
wave approximation (RWA). For certain values of the parameters involved, we
show that it is possible to obtain a a Jaynes-Cummings type Hamiltonian. As an
example, we show the existence of super-revivals for the qubit inversion
Implementation of a quantum walk in a cycle of four nodes using an alternative method based on the Swap gate
This work has the objective of implementing quantum random walks in a graph with 4 nodes represented by a circle. It was observed that during the implementation of a discrete-time quantum walk, based on Hadamard's coin, the simulated results diverge from the theoretically expected results. In order to correct the discrepancies between the processed and theoretically expected results we use an alternative method based on the Swap port. To perform the simulation of the algorithms, the Qiskit framework and a real processor provided by IBM through remote access was used. The simulations performed in the real processor showed small fluctuations, however the quantum states were obtained with satisfactory probabilities
Field Purification in the intensity-dependent Jaynes-Cummings model
We have found that, in the intensity-dependent Jaynes-Cummings model, a field
initially prepared in a statistical mixture of two coherent states,
and , evolves toward a pure state. We have also shown that an
even-coherent state turns periodically a into rotated odd-coherent state during
the evolution.Comment: 14 pages, RevTex, 3 figures, accepted for publication in Physics
