If you nudge a [[Qubit|two-level system]] (for example, two energy levels in an [[Bohr Model|atom]]) with a suitable [[Electromagnetism|electromagnetic]] field, it starts to oscillate between two states (or [[Energy Level|energy levels]]). Rabi oscillations describe the probability of finding the system in a certain [[Quantum State|state]] when it is exposed to an oscillating [[Magnetic Field|magnetic]] or [[electric field]]. These oscillations are important for understanding how quantum systems can be controlled and manipulated. ![[rabi_oscillation.excalidraw.light.svg]] >[!read]- Further Reading >- [[Quantum Mechanics]] >- [[Quantum Optics]] >[!ref]- References
