Superadiabatic quantum state transfer in spin chains

In this letter we propose a superadiabatic protocol where quantum state transfer can be achieved with arbitrarily high accuracy and minimal control across long spin chains with an odd number of spins. The quantum state transfer protocol only requires the control of the couplings between the qubits on the edge and the spin chain. We predict fidelities above 0.99 for an evolution of nanoseconds using typical spin exchange coupling values of μeV. Furthermore, by building a superadiabatic formalism on top of this protocol, we propose a effective superadiabatic protocol that retains the minimal control over the spin chain and improves the fidelity by up to 20%.

Local Kondo temperatures in atomic chains

We study the effect of disorder in strongly interacting small atomic chains. Using the Kotliar- Ruckenstein slave-boson approach we diagonalize the Hamiltonian via scattering matrix theory. We numerically solve the Kondo transmission and the slave-boson parameters that allow us to calculate the Kondo temperature. We demonstrate that in the weak disorder regime, disorder in the energy levels of the dopants induces a non-screened disorder in the Kondo couplings of the atoms. We show that disorder increases the Kondo temperature of a perfect chain. We find that this disorder in the couplings comes from a local distribution of Kondo temperatures along the chain. We propose two experimental setups where the impact of local Kondo temperatures can be observed.
