The Back Action of Josephson Photomultipliers — •Luke C.G. Govia1,2, Emily J. Pritchett2, Seth T. Merkel2, Deanna Pineau3, and Frank K. Wilhelm21Institute for Quantum Computing and Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of Waterloo, Ontario, Canada — 2Theoretical Physics, Universität des Saarlandes, Saarbrücken, Germany — 3Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of Victoria, British Columbia, Canada

We describe the Josephson photomultiplier, a photon counter applicable to circuit QED. We show that its backaction is described by the regular photon annihilation operator at short interaction times and approaches a variant of the photon subtraction operator at long times. Understanding this backaction opens the opportunity to use multiplexed photomultipliers for, e.g., state tomography with few preparations.
