Abstract

The Josephson bifurcation amplifier (JBA) readout process of a superconducting qubit is analyzed quantum mechanically. We examined the dynamics of the density operator of a detector (a driven nonlinear oscillator) and a qubit coupled system during the measurement process. We have observed the qubit-detector (JBA) entangled state and it is divided into two separable states at the moment the JBA transition begins. Moreover, we discuss the process from the viewpoint of time variations in information quantities, such as mutual information between the qubit and detector. We show that the measurement process corresponds to an information conversion from quantum to classical one.
