We study the dynamics of a current biased Josephson phase qubit capacitively coupled to an LC circuit. We find that the eigenstates of this system are dressed states that are entangled states between the phase qubit and the LC resonator. We demonstrate that these dressed states can be probed by measuring the avoided crossing in the spectrum of the system. We present our experimental setup to investigate them. This system is interesting not only in demonstrating entanglement, the essential element for quantum information processing (QIP), but also in serving as a first step toward a solid-state analog of cavity QED.
