Wigner Function Non-Classicality Induced in a Charge Qubit Interacting with a Dissipative Field Cavity

We explore a superconducting charge qubit interacting with a dissipative microwave cavity field. Wigner distribution and its non-classicality are investigated analytically under the effects of the qubit-cavity interaction, the qubit-cavity detuning, and the dissipation. As the microwave cavity field is initially in an even coherent state, we investigate the non-classicality of the Wigner distributions. Partially and maximally frozen entanglement are produced by the qubit-cavity interaction, depending on detuning and cavity dissipation. It is found that the amplitudes and frequency of the Wigner distribution can be controlled by the phase space parameters, the qubit-cavity interaction and the detuning, as well as by the dissipation. The cavity dissipation reduces the non-classicality; this process can be accelerated by the detuning.

Automated summary

In this study, a superconducting charge qubit interacting with a dissipative microwave cavity field is analyzed for the effects of qubit-cavity interaction, qubit-cavity detuning, and dissipation on Wigner distribution and its non-classicality. The research shows that the amplitudes and frequency of the Wigner distribution can be controlled by various parameters, including the phase space parameters, qubit-cavity interaction, detuning, and dissipation. Cavity dissipation reduces non-classicality, and this reduction can be accelerated by the detuning.
