Control of open quantum systems: The nonequilibrium Green’s function perspective

Haoran Sun Michael Galperin

Abstrak

Manipulations with open quantum systems (such as qubits) are fundamental for any quantum technology. They are the focus of studies involving optimal control theory. Usually, control is achieved through the use of time-dependent external fields when driven system evolution is simulated employing the Davies construction (second-order Markov quantum master equation formulation). As a weak (second order) coupling scheme, the Davies construction is limited in its ability to account for bath-induced coherences. To overcome the limitation, we utilize the nonequilibrium Green’s function method and demonstrate that accounting for the coherences makes a qualitative impact on quantum control studies. We find that accounting for the coherences is especially important when dealing with system evolution involving mixed states.
