A crucial limit to measurement efficiencies of superconducting circuits comes from losses involved when coupling to an external quantum amplifier. Here, we realize a device circumventing this problem by directly embedding a two-level…
The speed and fidelity of dispersive readout of superconducting qubits should improve by increasing the amplitude of the measurement drive. Experiments show, however, that beyond some drive amplitude there is always a saturation or drop in…
Measurement backaction degrades dispersive readout of superconducting qubits even at modest drive strengths, often via the reduction of qubit lifetimes during readout. In this work, we theoretically and experimentally study this degradation…
The superconducting charge-phase `Quantronium' qubit is considered in order to develop a model for the measurement process used in the experiment of Vion et. al. [Science 296 886 (2002)]. For this model we propose a method for including the…
