This goal is accomplished by tuning the coupling between the wire endpoints and the two qubits there attached, to an optimal value. A general procedure to determine such value is devised, and scaling laws between the optimal coupling and the length of the wire are found. The procedure is implemented in the case of a wire consisting of a spin-1/2 XY chain: results for the time dependence of the quantities which characterize quantum-state and entanglement transfer are found of extremely good quality and almost independent of the wire length. The present approach does not require `ad hoc' engineering of the intrawire interactions nor a specific initial pulse shaping, and can be applied to a vast class of quantum channels.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2010-06-07T09:50:22.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "03.67.Hk", "03.67.Bg", "03.67.Pp", "75.10.Pq" ], "keywords": [ "entanglement transfer", "homogeneous quantum wires", "optimal dynamics", "quantum-state", "specific initial pulse" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review A", "year": 2010, "month": "Nov", "volume": 82, "number": 5, "pages": "052321" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 5, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2010PhRvA..82e2321B" } } }
