Abstract:Effective Hamiltonian method is widely used in quantum information. We introduce a method to calculate effective Hamiltonians and give two examples in quantum information to demonstrate the method. We also give a relation between the effective Hamiltonian in the Shrödinger picture and the corresponding effective Hamiltonian in the interaction picture. Finally, we present a relation between our effective Hamiltonian method and the James–Jerke method which is currently used by many authors to calculate effective… Show more
“…where P is the projector operator to the non-phonon subspace. Denoting x / ∈Im P ,y∈Im P 1 Ey−Ex P x AP y by (A), the perturbation terms read [42] ν (1) = P V P = 0,…”

“…To extract the effective indirect coupling from the total Hamiltonian of system, we calculate the effective Hamiltonian of the two coupled qubits [41,42]. For simplicity, only the states with no more than one phonon in total is taken in consideration, and the calculation is performed to the third order.…”
We theoretically study the non-equilibrium correlations and entanglement between distant semiconductor qubits in a one-dimensional coupled-mechanical-resonator chain. Each qubit is defined by a double quantum dot (DQD) and embedded in a mechanical resonator. The two qubits can be coupled, correlated and entangled through phonon transfer along the resonator chain. We calculate the non-equilibrium correlations and steady-state entanglement at different phonon-phonon coupling rates, and find a maximal steady entanglement induced by a population inversion. The results suggest that highly tunable correlations and entanglement can be generated by phonon-qubit hybrid system, which will contribute to the development of mesoscopic physics and solid-state quantum computation.
