Popis: | Photon blockade via a giant self-Kerr nonlinearity in an optical resonator induced by an N-type quantum system is one of the main routines towards photon-based quantum information processing. However, such an N-type system for phonons is lacking. We propose an effective N-type quantum system for phonons, forming from a superconducting transmon qubit and a microwave resonator. In the absence of any external driving, the quantum vacuum-qubit interaction causes the surface acoustic wave (SAW) phonon blockade. Such a vacuum-induced phonon blockade paves the way to prepare single SAW phonons from a weak coherent phononic state for SAW accessible superconducting quantum computation. |
