Nonequilibrium Quantum Thermodynamics in the Process of Adiabatic Speedup

Zhao-Ming Wang, Feng-Hua Ren, Mark Byrd

Understanding heat transfer between a quantum system and its environment is of grave importance if reliable quantum devices are to be constructed. Here, the heat transfer between the system and bath in non-Markovian open quantum systems in the process of adiabatic speedup is investigated. Using the quantum state diffusion equation method, the heat current, energy current and the power are calculated during the free evolution and under external control of the system. While the heat current increases with increasing system-bath coupling strength and bath temperature, the non-Markovian nature of the bath can restrict the heat current. Without pulse control, the heat current is nearly equal to energy current. However, with pulse control, the energy current is nearly equal to the power. We show that more non-Markovian baths can be used to better approximate an adiabatic evolution and have a smaller heat current. Our results reveal that the non-Markovian nature of the bath significantly contributes to both the heat transfer rate as well as the effective adiabatic speedup.

Adiabatic speedup and quantum heat current in an open system

Abstract Adiabatic evolution has important applications in quantum information processing. In that context, the system has to be maintained in one of its instantaneous eigenstates. Normally the adiabaticity of the system will be ruined by its surrounding environment. Quantum control has been used widely to speed up the adiabatic process and thus reduces the effect of the environment. In this letter, we investigate the adiabatic speedup and the associated quantum heat current with and without pulse control. The system is immersed in a non-Markovian and finite-temperature heat bath. Our calculation results show that the effective adiabatic speedup can be obtained in a weak system-bath coupling and low-temperature heat bath. Specifically, non-Markovianity from the environment can be beneficial to the enhancement of the adiabatic fidelity. Furthermore, we calculate the quantum heat current between the system and bath in the process of adiabatic speedup. We find that the adiabatic fidelity decreases with increasing heat current. Our investigation paves the way for the design of quantum heat engines and quantum devices.
