چکیده

Nature, in the form of dissipation, inevitably intervenes in our efforts to control a quantum system. In this talk we show that although we cannot, in general, compensate for dissipation by coherent control of the system, such effects are not always counterproductive; for example, the transformation from a thermal (mixed) state to a cold condensed (pure state) can only be achieved by non-unitary effects such as population and phase relaxation.

Finite temperature correlation function of two dissipative massive scalar fields: Thermofield approach

The present paper aims at investigating the manner of two dissipative massive scalar fields. Two massive scalar fields that interact with a reservoir were considered and a reservoir was modeled by continuum Klein-Gordon fields. The Lagrangian of the total system was canonically quantized and the dynamics of the system was determined using the Euler-Lagrange equation. Then, the explicit form of the...

Quantum control of dissipative systems: Exact solutions

Optimal quantum control theory, which predicts the tailored light fields that best drive a system to a desired target, is applied to the quantum dissipative dynamics of systems linearly coupled to a Gaussian bath. To calculate the material response function required for optimizing the light field, the analytical solution is derived for the two-level Brownian harmonic oscillator model and the re...

The energy minimization problem for two-level dissipative quantum systems

The objective of this article is to present developments of geometric optimal control to analyze the energy minimization problem of dissipative two-level quantum systems whose dynamics is governed by Kossakowski-Lindblad equations. This analysis completed by numerical simulations based on adapted algorithms allows a computation of the optimal control law whose robustness with respect to initial...

Time-Minimal Control of Dissipative Two-Level Quantum Systems: The Integrable Case

The objective of this article is to apply recent developments in geometric optimal control to analyze the time minimum control problem of dissipative two-level quantum systems whose dynamics is governed by the Lindblad equation. We focus our analysis on the case where the extremal Hamiltonian is integrable.

Quantum control of dissipative systems

We study the effect of dissipation, i.e., uncontrollable interactions of a quantum system with the environment, on one’s ability to control the system. In particular we show that dissipation, although often considered undesirable, opens up unique possibilities for quantum control by removing the constraint of unitary evolution, which restricts the set of reachable states and imposes bounds on t...

اتلاف در مدارهای الکتریکی کوانتومی مزوسکوپی RLC

The quantum theory for a mesoscopic electric circuit with charge discreteness is investigated. Taking the Caldirola-Kanai Hamiltonian in studding quantum mechanics of dissipative systems, we obtain the persistent current and the energy spectrum of a damped quantum LC-design mesoscopic circuit under the influence of a time-dependent external field.
