Low-frequency (1/f) noise dominates the decoherence in most
superconducting qubits. Thus it is very important to
understand its origin and properties. Recently, coherent two-level systems
have been observed in Josephson junctions [1]. These systems influence
strongly qubits’ dynamics at high (≈ 10 GHz) frequencies.
In addition, recent experiments [2] indicate a
connection between the high- and low-frequency noise.
In this work we note that an ensemble of coherent two-level
systems produces simultaneously high- and low-frequency noise.
The relation between these two contributions depends on the
statistical properties of the ensemble. We analyze several
possible distribution functions and relate the results to the
known experimental facts. We also note that a similar relation
holds for ensembles of many-level fluctuators with discrete
spectrum.
