We find that in the strongly-driven dispersive regime of this system, there is the unexpected onset of a high-transmission \"bright\" state at a critical power which depends sensitively on the initial qubit state. A simple and robust measurement protocol exploiting this effect achieves a single-shot fidelity of 87% using a conventional sample design and experimental setup, and at least 61% fidelity to joint correlations of three qubits.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2010-10-19T18:32:51.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "42.50.Pq", "03.67.-a", "85.25.-j" ], "keywords": [ "circuit quantum electrodynamics", "jaynes-cummings nonlinearity", "high-fidelity readout", "qubit readout scheme", "initial qubit state" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review Letters", "year": 2010, "month": "Oct", "volume": 105, "number": 17, "pages": 173601 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 5, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2010PhRvL.105q3601R" } } }
