Adopting a simple phenomenological model for this noise we describe exactly the corresponding dephasing in various regimes. The nonstationarity and pronounced non-Gaussian features of this noise induce new anomalous dephasing scenarii. Beyond a history-dependent critical coupling strength the dephasing time exhibits a strong dependence on the age of the noise and the decay of coherence is not exponential.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2005-01-11T13:25:27.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "level systems", "nonstationary dephasing", "quantum two-level system", "noise induce", "strong dependence" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
