Coherence, purity and correlation for superconducting charge qubits

Abstract

In a model consisting of two superconducting charge qubits (SC-Qs), we study how the Josephson energy (JE) and temperature have an influence on the coherence, the degree of mixedness, and the nonclassical correlation. In this example, we show how the quantumness metrics change depending on the JE and the temperature. We also show that the number of quantifiers can be controlled by appropriate selection of the JE of the SC-Q and temperature effect. Additionally, we determine the optimal conditions required to enhance and preserve the coherence and maintain the level of coherence in the existence of temperature variations. We observe important quantum phenomena, i.e., coherence trapping and the quantum correlation trapping. Furthermore, we explain the variations in the coherence based on the degree of mixedness in the superconducting qubit state.
