Measurements of a periodically driving qubit using a quantum point contact

Using the method developed by Gurvitz 1996 Phys. Rev. B 53 15932, we obtained the Bloch-type rate equations describing the entire system of a periodically driving qubit monitored by a quantum point contact detector. The results demonstrate that the isolated qubit can be kept in its initial state with a large driving frequency due to more difficult electron tunneling in qubit, and this initial state can always be measured at a small measurement-induced decoherence rate during a short time.
