Fig. 4: Dissipation-enabled dynamical stabilization of the x-component of the qubit state vector.
a By varying both the strength (resonant Rabi frequency) and the detuning of the state preparation pulse relative to the qubit frequency, we are able to demonstrate dynamical state stabilization that has both positive and negative values of 〈σx〉. b Numerical solutions to Eq. (2) over the same range of drive parameters as in (a). The rates γ1 and γϕ are fit parameters as described in the text, while all other model parameters are determined empirically. c Representative horizontal linecuts from (a) along with the corresponding predictions based on the solution to the Lindblad master equation (b).
