Wepropose a scheme for preparing a stationary microwave single-photon stateof a transmission line resonator via off-resonant interaction with asingle superconducting Cooper-pair Box (CPB). It is shown that withthe help of an auxiliary microwave field, single-photon state canbe persistently produced with high efficiency by using the CPBand cavity loss. The scheme is feasible with the currentexperimental technology and can be extended to prepare a multiphotonFock state in a transmission line cavity.
