Dynamical Control of Quantum Information Processing

Paola Cappellaro, Chandrasekhar Ramanathan, David G. Cory

We study experimentally a system comprised of linear chains of spin-1/2 nuclei that provides a test bed for multibody dynamics and quantum-information processing. This system is a paradigm for a class of quantum-information processing devices that can perform particular tasks even without universal control of the whole quantum system. We investigate the extent of control achievable on the system with current experimental apparatus and methods to gain information on the system state, when full tomography is not possible and in any case highly inefficient.

A light stop and retrieval phenomenon, which is a simple extension of coherence transfer from two-photon to one-photon via resonant Raman interactions and nondegenerate four-wave mixing processes, is analyzed for dynamic quantum information processing.

Quantum information processing should be generated through control of quantum evolution for physical systems being used as resources, such as superconducting circuits, spinspin couplings in ions and artificial anyons in electronic gases. They have a quantum dynamics which should be translated into more natural languages for quantum information processing. On this terrain, this language should let to establish manipulation operations on the associated quantum information states as classical information processing does. This work shows how a kind of processing operations can be settled and implemented for quantum states design and quantum processing for systems fulfilling a SU (2) reduction in their dynamics.
