Mesoscopic Shelving Readout of Superconducting Qubits in Circuit QED — •Jens Siewert1, Barbara Englert2,3, Giuseppe Mangano1,4, Matteo Mariantoni3, Rudolf Gross3, and Enrique Solano2,51University of Regensburg, 93040 Regensburg, Germany — 2LMU München, 80333 München, Germany — 3TU München und Walther-Meißner Institut, 85748 Garching, Germany — 4DMFCI, Università di Catania, 95125 Catania, Italy — 5University of the Basque Country, 48080 Bilbao, Spain

We present a method for measuring the state of a superconducting qubit inside a microwave cavity, where one qubit state is associated with the generation of a mesoscopic cavity coherent field while the other remains associated with a vacuum field. By measuring the outgoing cavity field with conventional devices, an efficient detection of the qubit state can be achieved. This method uses a cyclic transition in a three-level artificial atom configuration to build the large cavity field, enabling a high-fidelity measurement in the spirit of the successful electron-shelving readout for trapped ions. We expect that the proposed technique can be adapted to different superconducting qubit designs and contribute to further improve qubit readout fidelity.
