- Abstract summary: Two-level systems (TLS) coupled to waveguides are a fundamental paradigm for light-matter interactions and quantum networks.
We introduce and experimentally demonstrate a method to tune the interaction between a TLS, implemented as a flux qubit, and a transmission line waveguide from a decoupled state to a coupling strength.
This system enables future investigations in the dynamics of the spin-boson model, microwave photonics, and relativistic quantum information.

- Abstract: Two-level systems (TLS) coupled to waveguides are a fundamental paradigm for
light-matter interactions and quantum networks. We introduce and experimentally
demonstrate a method to tune the interaction between a TLS, implemented as a
flux qubit, and a transmission line waveguide from a decoupled state to a
coupling strength that is a significant fraction of the TLS transition
frequency, near the ultra-strong coupling regime. The coupling, controlled via
magnetic flux, is described by a normalized coupling strength $\alpha$ that is
measured to range between $6.2\times10^{-5}$ and $2.19\times10^{-2}$, with
larger attainable maximum values predicted by a circuit model of the device.
This system enables future investigations in the dynamics of the spin-boson
model, microwave photonics, and relativistic quantum information.

A tunable coupler typically includes a nonlinear element, such as a SQUID, which is used to tune the resonance frequency of an LC circuit connecting two qubits.
Here we propose a complimentary approach where instead of tuning the resonance frequency of the tunable coupler by applying a quasistatic control signal, we excite by microwave the degree of freedom associated with the coupler itself.
