Coherent oscillations in a superconducting multi-level quantum system

Abstract

We have observed coherent time evolution of states in a multi-level quantum system, formed by a current-biased dc SQUID. The manipulation of the quantum states is achieved by resonant microwave pulses of flux. The number of quantum states participating in the coherent oscillations increases with increasing microwave power. Quantum measurement is performed by a nanosecond flux pulse which projects the final state onto one of two different voltage states of the dc SQUID, which can be read out.
