Four-level lasing in the two-qubit system — •Sergey Shevchenko1,2, Simon van der Ploeg2, Miroslav Grajcar2,3, Evgeniy Temchenko1, Alexandr Omelyanchouk1, Evgeniy Il’ichev2, and Hans-Georg Meyer2 — 1Institute for Low Temperature Physics and Engineering, Kharkov, Ukraine — 2Institute of Photonic Technology, Jena, Germany — 3Comenius University, Bratislava, Slovakia
The system of two coupled qubits can be described as a quantum four-level system. To make it useful for applications, e.g. for lasing, the hierarchy of relaxation times is needed. Such a situation occurs naturally in a case of two coupled superconducting qubits [1]. We have studied both experimentally and theoretically resonant excitation and relaxation in this system [1,2]. Two types of the multi-photon transitions were demonstrated: the direct and the ladder-type ones. This can be used for the creation of the inverse population, which was discussed in relation to the possibility of three- and four-level lasing in the system [2].
