From Zeno to anti-Zeno: decoherence-control dependence on the quantum statistics of the bath

Quantum Physics 2011-06-10 v1 Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics

Abstract

We demonstrate through exact solutions that a spin bath leads to stronger (faster) dephasing of a qubit than a bosonic bath with identical bath-coupling spectrum. This difference is due to the spin-bath "dressing" by the coupling. Consequently, the quantum statistics of the bath strongly affects the pulse sequences required to dynamically decouple the qubit from its bath.
