摘要
A flux qubit biased at its symmetry point shows a minimum in the energy splitting (the gap), providing protection against flux noise. We have fabricated a qubit of which the gap can be tuned fast and have coupled this qubit strongly to an LC oscillator. We show full spectroscopy of the qubit-oscillator system and generate vacuum Rabi oscillations. When the gap is made equal to the oscillator frequency v(osc) we find the largest vacuum Rabi splitting of similar to 0:1v(osc). Here being at resonance coincides with the optimal coherence of the symmetry point.
