Abstract

We study the coherent dynamics of a qubit excited by an amplitude-modulated electromagnetic field under the Rabi resonance when the frequency of the low-frequency modulation field matches the Rabi frequency in the high-frequency field. Due to the destructive interference of multiple photon processes within the ultrastrong coupling between the qubit and the low-frequency driving field, Rabi oscillations result exclusively from the Bloch–Siegert effect. It is directly observed in the time-resolved coherent dynamics as the Bloch–Siegert oscillation. In this case, triplets in the Fourier spectra of the coherent response are transformed into doublets with the splitting between the lines equal to twice the Bloch–Siegert shift. These unusual properties are demonstrated in the conditions of experiments with a nitrogen vacancy center in the diamond.
