We consider using Hamiltonian feedback control to increase the speed at which a continuous measurement purifies (reduces) the state of a quantum system, and thus to increase the speed of the preparation of pure states. For a measurement of…

In this paper we first show that dynamic switching schemes can be used to reduce energy dissipation below the thermodynamic minimum of NkTlnr (N= number of state variables, 1/r=error probability), but only at the expense of the error…
