Abstract
We study the quantum charge noise and measurement properties of the double Cooper-pair resonance point in a superconducting single-electron transistor (SSET) coupled to a Josephson charge qubit. Using a density-matrix approach for the coupled system, we obtain a full description of the measurement backaction; for weak coupling, this is used to extract the quantum charge noise. Unlike the case of a nonsuperconducting SET, the backaction here can induce population inversion in the qubit. We find that the Cooper-pair resonance process allows for a much better measurement than a similar nonsuperconducting SET, and can approach the quantum limit of efficiency.
