Dark state as a measurable state by a dispersive readout without a Purcell limit
Abstract
It is believed that the enhancement in qubit-resonator coupling allows a better dispersive readout but introduces greater Purcell loss. In this work, we propose that a dark mode in a coupled quantum system may violate this rule by introducing the ZZ interaction between the dark and a bright mode. The dark mode may exhibit an effective zero coupling strength, and zero Purcell loss with the resonator photons. Nevertheless, the dispersive shift is almost the same as the bright state, due to the higher order perturbation introduced by the higher excited states. Such a state demonstrates the measurability without a Purcell limit in circuit quantum electrodynamics.
