(color online) Numerical simulation as a function of frequency and amplitude when the qubit is driven by a single-cycle sinusoidal signal. The initial phases of the signal are 0 (Fig. 4(a)) and π (Fig. 4(b)), respectively. The inset shows as a function of amplitude of the sinusoidal field when the frequency is 10 kHz.
