The NOON states are valuable quantum resources, which have a wide range of applications in quantum communication, quantum metrology, and quantum information processing. Here we propose a fast, concise and reliable protocol for deterministically generating the NOON states of two resonators coupled to a single △-type superconducting qutrit. In particular, we derive the effective Hamiltonians at the multi-photon resonances by virtue of the strong counter-rotating interaction between the resonator modes and the qutrit. Based on these crucial effective Hamiltonians, our protocol simplifies the previous ones using the single-photon resonance and consequently reduces the number of operations for state preparation. To test the robustness of this protocol, we analyze the effects from both the decoherence including dissipation and dephasing and the crosstalk of resonator modes on the state fidelity through a Lindblad master equation in the eigenstates of the full Hamiltonian.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
