The Pulsed Excitation in Two-Qubit Systems

Resumo

The temporal dynamics of absorption of a single-photon pulse by two qubits interacting with a microwave field of a one-dimensional waveguide have been studied. The theory, which allows one to use arbitrary shapes of the input single-photon wave packet as an initial condition, as well as investigate the excitation dynamics of each qubit, has been developed. The numerical calculation is performed for the packet of a Gaussian shape, at different parameters of frequency detuning and duration of the input pulse. The excitation dynamics of both identical and nonidentical qubits have been studied. It has been specifically shown that it is possible to form symmetric and antisymmetric entangled states for identical qubits.
