Robust Multiple-Range Coherent Quantum State Transfer

Abstract

We propose a multiple-range quantum communication channel to realize coherent two-way quantum state transport with high fidelity. In our scheme, an information carrier (a qubit) and its remote partner are both adiabatically coupled to the same data bus, i.e., an N-site tight-binding chain that has a single defect at the center. At the weak interaction regime, our system is effectively equivalent to a three level system of which a coherent superposition of the two carrier states constitutes a dark state. The adiabatic coupling allows a well controllable information exchange timing via the dark state between the two carriers. Numerical results show that our scheme is robust and efficient under practically inevitable perturbative defects of the data bus as well as environmental dephasing noise.

Multipath adiabatic quantum state transfer

Bing Chen, Wei Fan, Yan Xu +2 more

We study coherent adiabatic quantum state transfer through a multipath data bus by means of controlling on-site energies, and analyze the effect of pathway number on transfer efficiency. We first introduce a simple spacial geometry and demonstrate that the multipath data bus which contributes to the quantum state transfer can reduce to a tight-binding chain with three quantum dots. Simulation results show that the electron can be transferred more efficiently by properly increasing the number of transfer paths under the same shape of controlling pulses. The optimal pathway number and the corresponding high-fidelity transfer time scale are determined by the numerical analysis. Finally, we extend our proposal to a more general system. The results show that such a scheme is relatively insensitive to imperfect fabrications. Our discussions illuminate the possibility of system engineering to enhance control and transfer times.

High-fidelity quantum state transfer through a dissipative quantum data bus*

Wen-Zhi Huang, Yu-Zhen He, Bing Chen

Abstract We propose and analyze a robust quantum state transfer protocol through a scalable quantum data bus that consists of a network of controlled dissipative modules. In particular, we first demonstrate the ability to achieve perfect state transfer between two distinct quantum sites which are adiabatically coupled to the data bus in non-dissipative situation. We then consider the role of dissipation in adiabatic quantum state transfer via using Born–Markov master equation in the standard Lindblad form. Numerical simulation shows that the dissipation effect on the quality of transmission can be suppressed by engineering the network couplings of data bus properly.

High-Fidelity Quantum State Transfer in Multimode Resonators via Tunable Pulses

Yuanning Chen, Xinxin Yang, Simon Gröblacher

Quantum state transfer between distant nodes is essential for distributed quantum information processing. Existing protocols are typically optimized for specific coupling regimes, such as adiabatic dark-state transfer in the single-mode limit and pitch-and-catch schemes in the multimode regime, leaving the crossover between them without a simple and unified control strategy. Here we identify a minimal two-parameter control framework that enables high-fidelity quantum state transfer across this single-mode-to-multimode crossover in a multimode quantum channel. Using a pulse-shaped pitch-and-catch protocol controlled only by the pulse ramp rate and the emission-absorption delay, we achieve transfer fidelities exceeding 99.9%, extending pitch-and-catch protocols toward the single-mode limit without requiring dark-state protection or complex pulse design. We further demonstrate robustness against dissipation, disorder, detuning, and imperfect initialization under experimentally realistic conditions. These results provide a simple and broadly applicable framework for state transfer in multimode quantum channels, with relevance to circuit-QED and hybrid quantum-acoustic systems.

Adiabatic quantum state transfer in tight-binding chains using periodic driving fields

Stefano Longhi

A method for high-fidelity coherent adiabatic transport in a zig-zag tight-binding chain, based on application of two external periodic driving fields, is theoretically proposed. The method turns out to be robust against imperfections and disorder of the static lattice Hamiltonian, is tolerant to next-nearest neighborhood interactions, and enables coherent transport in long chains without the need for a local control and timing of the trapping potential.

Long-range adiabatic quantum state transfer through a tight-binding chain as a quantum data bus

Bing Chen, Wei Fan, Yan Xu +3 more

We introduce a scheme based on adiabatic passage that allows for long-range quantum communication through tight-binding chain with always-on interaction. By adiabatically varying the external gate voltage applied on the system, the electron can be transported from the sender's dot to the aim one. We numerically solve the Schr\"odinger equation for a system with a given number of quantum dots. It is shown that this scheme is a simple and efficient protocol to coherently manipulate the population transfer under suitable gate pulses. The dependence of the energy gap and the transfer time on system parameters is analyzed and shown numerically. Our method provides a guidance for future realization of adiabatic quantum state transfer in experiments.

Physically feasible three-level transitionless quantum driving with multiple Schrödinger dynamics

Xue‐Ke Song, Qing Ai, Jing Qiu +1 more

Three-level quantum systems, which possess some unique characteristics beyond two-level ones, such as electromagnetically induced transparency, coherent trapping, and Raman scatting, play important roles in solid-state quantum information processing. Here, we introduce an approach to implement the physically feasible three-level transitionless quantum driving with multiple Schr\"odinger dynamics (MSDs). It can be used to control accurately population transfer and entanglement generation for three-level quantum systems in a nonadiabatic way. Moreover, we propose an experimentally realizable hybrid architecture, based on two nitrogen-vacancy-center ensembles coupled to a transmission line resonator, to realize our transitionless scheme which requires fewer physical resources and simple procedures, and it is more robust against environmental noises and control parameter variations than conventional adiabatic passage techniques. All these features inspire the further application of MSDs on robust quantum information processing in experiment.
