Permanent spin currents in cavity-qubit systems
arXiv:1709.04522 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.97.064506
Abstract
In a recent remarkable experiment [P. Roushan et al., Nature Physics 13, 146 (2017)], a spin current in an architecture of three superconducting qubits was produced during a few microseconds by creating synthetic magnetic fields. The life-time of the current was set by the typical dissipative mechanisms that occur in those systems. We propose a scheme for the generation of permanent currents, even in the presence of such imperfections, and scalable to larger system sizes. It relies on striking a subtle balance between multiple nonequilibrium drives and the dissipation mechanisms, in order to engineer and stimulate chiral excited states which can carry current.
