By driving a dispersively coupled qubit-resonator system, we realize an "impedance-matched" Λ system that has two identical radiative decay rates from the top level and interacts with a semi-infinite waveguide. It has been predicted that a photon input from the waveguide deterministically induces a Raman transition in the system and switches its electronic state. We confirm this through microwave response to a continuous probe field, observing near-perfect (99.7%) extinction of the reflection and highly efficient (74%) frequency down-conversion. These proof-of-principle results lead to deterministic quantum gates between material qubits and microwave photons and open the possibility for scalable quantum networks interconnected with waveguide photons.

This may be contrasted with the three-dimensional case, where the spatial mode mismatch between the incident and scattered fields prevents perfect interference [3]. In particular, when the quantum emitter is coupled to the end of a semi-infinite waveguide and when its excited state has two radiative decay paths (i.e., a so-called Λ or Δ-type three-level system) with equal decay rates, a resonant incident photon into the emitter deterministically induces a Raman transition, and is never reflected due to destructive interference with the reemitted photon [4]. This phenomenon is called "impedance matching," in analogy with the suppression of wave reflection in an electric circuit terminated by its characteristic impedance [5].Artificial atoms in superconducting circuits have proven to be versatile quantum mechanical systems for realizing a variety of intriguing quantum optical phenomena. In circuit quantum electrodynamics (QED) [6,7], strong coupling of a superconducting qubit with a resonator photon is readily achieved. Moreover, an artificial atom coupled directly with a microwave transmission line demonstrates near-perfect reflection of the incident field [8,9]. Recently, we have theoretically shown that an impedance-matched Λ system can be implemented by using the dressed states of a driven circuit-QED system [10]. Although Λ and Δ systems have been proposed theoretically [11][12][13][14] and implemented experimentally with a flux qubit by using the lowest three levels of its asymmetric double-well potential [15][16][17], realizing an impedance-matched Λ system has remained elusive. Here, we experimentally demonstrate impedance matching in the driven circuit-QED system. Using this system, we demonstrate near-perfect absorption of the incident microwave and its frequency down-conversion with a conversion efficiency of 74%. These results and their associated agreement with our model calculations indicate that each incident microwave photon deterministically induces a Raman transit...
