Probing a composite spin-boson environment
Neil P. Oxtoby, Ángel Rivas, Susana F. Huelga +1
We consider non-interacting multi-qubit systems as controllable probes of an environment of defects/impurities modelled as a composite spin-boson environment. The spin-boson enviro…
Highly efficient energy excitation transfer in light-harvesting complexes: The fundamental role of noise-assisted transport
Filippo Caruso, Alex W. Chin, Animesh Datta +2
Excitation transfer through interacting systems plays an important role in many areas of physics, chemistry, and biology. The uncontrollable interaction of the transmission network…
Stochastic resonance phenomena in spin chains
Ángel Rivas, Neil P. Oxtoby, Susana F. Huelga
We discuss stochastic resonance-like effects in the context of coupled quantum spin systems. We focus here on an information-theoretic approach and analyze the steady state quantum…
Nonclassicality of states and measurements by breaking classical bounds on statistics
Ángel Rivas, Alfredo Luis
We derive exceedingly simple practical procedures revealing the quantum nature of states and measurements by the violation of classical upper bounds on the statistics of arbitrary…
State Transfer in Highly Connected Networks and a Quantum Babinet Principle
D. I. Tsomokos, M. B. Plenio, I. de Vega +1
The transfer of a quantum state between distant nodes in two-dimensional networks, is considered. The fidelity of state transfer is calculated as a function of the number of intera…
Dephasing assisted transport: Quantum networks and biomolecules
M. B. Plenio, S. F. Huelga
Transport phenomena are fundamental in Physics. They allow for information and energy to be exchanged between individual constituents of communication systems, networks or even bio…
