An asymptotical von-Neumann measurement strategy for solid-state qubits | | F.K. Wilhelm

28 Jul 2003 | | Subject: | Mesoscopic Systems and Quantum Hall Effect; Superconductivity | cond-mat.mes-hall cond-mat.supr-con quant-ph | | Abstract: | A measurement on a macroscopic quantum system does in general not lead to a projection of the wavefunction in the basis of the detector as predicted by von-Neumann’s postulate. Hence, it is a question of fundametal interest, how the preferred basis onto which the state is projected is selected out of the macroscopic Hilbert space of the system. Detector-dominated von-Neumann measurements are also desirable for both quantum computation and verification of quantum mechanics on a macroscopic scale. The connection of these questions to the predictions of the spin-boson modelis outlined. I propose a measurement strategy, which uses the entanglement of the qubit with a weakly damped harmonic oscillator. It is shown, that the degree of entanglement controls the degree of renormalization of the qubit and identify, that this is equivalent to the degree to which the measurement is detector-dominated. This measurement very rapidly decoheres the initial state, but the thermalization is slow. The implementation in Josephson quantum bits is described and it is shown that this strategy also has practical advantages for the experimental implementation. | | Source: | arXiv, cond-mat/0307679 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
