We investigated the quantum speed limit time of a qubit system with non-Hermitian detuning. Our results show that, with respect to two distinguishable states of the non-Hermitian system, the evolutionary time does not have a nonzero lower…

The traditional quantum speed limits are not attainable for many physical processes, as they tend to be loose and fail to determine the exact time taken by quantum systems to evolve. To address this, we derive exact quantum speed limits for…
