Cooperative control of dissipative qubits: steering along the fastest dissipative contraction

Robert Weiß, Sandro Wimberger, David Guéry-Odelin

In the control of dissipative quantum systems, the slow relaxation modes usually set the ultimate manipulation timescale. We show that this bottleneck can be bypassed when dissipat…
