Pulse Control of Decoherence with Population Decay(General)

概要

The pulse control of decoherence in a qubit interacting with a quantum environment is studied with focus on a general case where decoherence is induced by both pure dephasing and population decay. To observe how the decoherence is suppressed by periodic π pulses, we present a simple method to calculate the time evolution of a qubit under arbitrary pulse sequences consisting of bit-flips and/or phase-flips. We examine the effectiveness of the two typical sequences : bb sequence consisting of only bit-flips, and bp sequence consisting of both bit- and phase-flips. It is shown that the effectiveness of the pulse sequences depends on a relative strength of the two decoherence processes especially when a pulse interval is slightly shorter than qubit-environment correlation times. In the short-interval limit, however, the bp sequence is always more effective than, or at least as effective as, the bb sequence.
