Abstract

Based on Lyapunov control, a scheme is proposed to accelerate dissipation dynamics for the generation of high-fidelity entanglement between two Rydberg atoms in the context of cavity QED. We first use quantum Zeno dynamics and the Rydberg antiblockade to find a unique steady state (two-atom singlet state) for the system. Then, we apply additional coherent control (ACC) fields to improve the evolution speed of the dissipative system. The ACC fields are designed based on the target state and they vanish gradually along with increasing of the fidelity; thus, the system is guaranteed to be finally stable. Additionally, the current accelerated scheme is checked to be robust against systematic and amplitude-noise errors.

Accelerated and Noise‐Resistant Protocol of Dissipation‐Based Knill–Laflamme–Milburn State Generation with Lyapunov Control

Yu Wang, Chang‐Sheng Hu, Zhi‐Cheng Shi +3 more

Abstract A protocol to generate steady Knill–Laflamme–Milburn (KLM) states of two Rydberg atoms with dissipation and Lyapunov control is proposed. Herein, combining with the quantum Zeno dynamics and the Rydberg antiblockade, a unique and steady solution of the master equation of the system is obtained, which satisfies the definition of KLM states. Furthermore, to polish the convergence rate, well‐designed additional coherent control (ACC) fields with Lyapunov control are added into the traditional dissipation process. Numerical simulation reveals that the steady target state generation is prominently accelerated and the protocol is robust against the stochastic noise errors caused by laser fields. It is hoped that the work may provide an alternative protocol to polish the generation of entanglement.

Dissipation-based entanglement via quantum Zeno dynamics and Rydberg antiblockade

Xiao‐Qiang Shao, Jin-Hui Wu, X. X. Yi

A scheme is proposed for dissipative generation of maximally entanglement between two Rydberg atoms in the context of cavity QED. The spontaneous emission of atoms combined with quantum Zeno dynamics and the Rydberg antiblockade guarantees a unique steady solution of the master equation of the system, which just corresponds to the antisymmetric Bell state $|S\ensuremath{\rangle}$. The convergence rate can be accelerated by the ground-state blockade mechanism of Rydberg atoms. Meanwhile the effect of cavity decay is suppressed by the Zeno requirement, leading to a steady-state fidelity about $90%$ as the single-atom cooperativity parameter $C\ensuremath{\equiv}{g}^{2}/(\ensuremath{\kappa}\ensuremath{\gamma})=10$, and this restriction is further relaxed to $C=5.2$ once the quantum-jump-based feedback control is exploited.

Fast dissipative preparation of three-dimensional entangled states for two Rydberg atoms via Lyapunov control

Zong-Xing Ding, Chang‐Sheng Hu, Li-Tuo Shen +3 more

Abstract By using the Lyapunov control approach—an optimization algorithm, we propose a dissipative scheme for efficiently preparing the three-dimensional entangled state of two Rydberg atoms, which subject to Rydberg–Rydberg interactions at the antiblockade regime. The steady target state is the unique dark state of the two-atom system, and is achieved with high fidelity under the Rydberg pumping and the atomic spontaneous emission. The time required to settle into the high-fidelity steady state is greatly accelerated by the help of Lyapunov control, which takes effects while the system is initially prepared in the states containing coherence between the dark state and decoherence-sensitive bright states. The numerical results show that a fidelity of the steady three-dimensional entangled state above 0.99 can be achieved around 2.2 ms with the current experimental conditions. We study in detail the optimal control parameters and show the robustness of the scheme against random noises. The scheme may be generalized for preparation of more complicate multi-atom entangled states.

Dissipative entanglement preparation via Rydberg antiblockade and Lyapunov control

Zong-Xing Ding, Chang-Sheng Hu, Li-Tuo Shen +3 more

Abstract Preparation of entangled steady states via dissipation and pumping in Rydberg atoms has been recently found to be useful for quantum information processing. The driven-dissipative dynamics is closely related to the natural linewidth of the Rydberg states and can be usually modulated by engineering the thermal reservior. Instead of modifying the effectively radiative decay, we propose an alternatively optimized scheme, which combines the resonant Rydberg antiblockade excitation and the Lyapunov control of the ground states to speed up the prepration of the singlet state for two interacting Rydberg atoms. The acceleration process strongly depends on the initial state of the system with respect to the initial coherence between the singlet state and decoherence-sensitive bright state. We study the optimal parameter regime for fast entanglement preparation and the robustness of the fidelity against random noises. The numerical results show that a fidelity above 0.99 can be achieved around 0.4 ms with the current experimental parameters. The scheme may be generalized for preparation of more complicate multi-atom entangled states.

Periodically driven facilitated high-efficiency dissipative entanglement with Rydberg atoms

Rui Li, Dongmin Yu, Shi‐Lei Su +1 more

A time-dependent periodical field can be utilized to efficiently modify the Rabi coupling of system, exhibiting nontrivial dynamics. We propose a scheme to show that this feature can be utilized for speeding up the formation of dissipative steady entanglement based on the Rydberg antiblockade mechanism. When the modulation frequency is exactly equal to the central frequency of the driving field, a sufficient residence time of the two-excitation Rydberg state is allowed for an irreversible spontaneous decay onto the target state, leading to a steady entanglement with a high fidelity $\ensuremath{\sim}0.98$ and a shorter generation time $<400\phantom{\rule{0.28em}{0ex}}\ensuremath{\mu}\mathrm{s}$. We show that a global maximal fidelity benefits from a consistence of microwave-field coupling and spontaneous decay strengths. The scheme manifests robust insensitivities towards the imperfect initialization, the fluctuations of van der Waals interaction, and the modulation frequency. This simple approach to facilitate the generation of dissipative entangled two-qubit states may guide an experimental direction in Rydberg quantum technology and quantum information.

Coherent control in quantum open systems: An approach for accelerating dissipation-based quantum state generation

Ye‐Hong Chen, Zhi‐Cheng Shi, Jie Song +2 more

In this paper, we propose an approach to accelerate the dissipation dynamics for quantum state generation with Lyapunov control. The strategy is to add target-state-related coherent control fields into the dissipation process to intuitively improve the evolution speed. By applying the current approach, without losing the advantages of dissipation dynamics, the target stationary states can be generated in a much shorter time as compared to that via traditional dissipation dynamics. As a result, the current approach containing the advantages of coherent unitary dynamics and dissipation dynamics allows for a significant improvement in quantum state generation.
