Control of decoherence induced by the bath in an ion trap
Zhongjie Wang
Abstract
Dynamical control of decoherence induced by the environment in a single trapped ion system is investigated.The scheme proposed here is based on the composition of the frequency-shift and parity-kick technique. The former is realized by a homogeneous classical large-detuned optical fields added to the ion system,while the latter is realized by a series of π pulses.With application of this scheme,the decoherence induced by the bath can be efficiently eliminated.Numerical calculation shows that this scheme is superior to the parity-kick scheme.
