Thermal effect and role of entanglement and coherence on excitation transfer in a spin chain
We analyze the role of bath temperature, coherence and entanglement on excitation transfer in a spin chain induced by the environment. In Markovian regime, we show that coherence and entanglement are very sensitive to bath temperature and vanish in time in contrary to the case of having zero-temperature bath. That is while, finding the last qubit of the chain in excited state increases by incre...
متن کاملRobust Entanglement in Anti-ferromagnetic Heisenberg Chains by Single-spin Optimal Control
We demonstrate how near-perfect entanglement (in fact arbitrarily close to maximal entanglement) can be generated between the end spins of an anti-ferromagnetic isotropic Heisenberg chain of length N , starting from the ground state in the N/2 excitation subspace, by applying a magnetic field along a given direction, acting on a single spin only. Temporally optimal magnetic fields to generate a...
متن کاملFrustrated quantum Heisenberg ferrimagnetic chains
We study the ground-state properties of weakly frustrated Heisenberg ferrimagnetic chains with nearest and next-nearest neighbor antiferromagnetic exchange interactions and two types of alternating sublattice spins S1 > S2, using 1/S spin-wave expansions, density-matrix renormalization group, and exact-diagonalization techniques. It is argued that the zero-point spin fluctuations completely des...
متن کاملFerrimagnetic and Long Period Antiferromagnetic Phases in High Spin Heisenberg Chains with D-Modulation
The ground state properties of the high spin Heisenberg chains with alternating single site anisotropy are investigated by means of the numerical exact daigonaization and DMRGmethod. It is found that the ferrimagnetic state appears between the Haldane phase and period doubled Néel phase for the integer spin chains. On the other hand, the transition from the TomonagaLuttinger liquid state into t...
متن کاملThermalization through unitary evolution of pure states
– The unitary time evolution of a quantum spin chain is calculated, and the entanglement evolution is shown. Moreover, we show that the reduced density matrix of a part of the chain evolves into a state in thermal equlibrium with the rest of the chain, even through unitary time evolution as opposed to the conventional picture that thermalization in quantum systems will happen during stochastic ...
