Coherence and Decay of Higher Energy Levels of a Superconducting Transmon Qubit

We present measurements of coherence and successive decay dynamics of higher energy levels of a superconducting transmon qubit. By applying consecutive π pulses for each sequential transition frequency, we excite the qubit from the ground state up to its fourth excited level and characterize the dec...
