Floquet engineering to entanglement protection of distant nitrogen vacancy centers

It remains challenging to preserve entanglement between distant solid-state qubits with high-fidelity, such as nitrogen vacancy centers (NVCs). We propose a Floquet engineering strategy to protect the maximal entanglement between two weakly interacting NVCs separated in long spatial distance by loca...

description It remains challenging to preserve entanglement between distant solid-state qubits with high-fidelity, such as nitrogen vacancy centers (NVCs). We propose a Floquet engineering strategy to protect the maximal entanglement between two weakly interacting NVCs separated in long spatial distance by locally applying periodic strong driving on the NVCs. It is found that entanglement of the Floquet states of the NVCs resonantly reaches its maximum during the whole driving period at certain values of the driving parameters. Our analysis reveals that it is the occurrence of the avoided level crossing in the Floquet quasienergy spectrum which results in such entanglement resonance. The dissipation effect on the generated entanglement has also been analyzed. Our results may be of both theoretical and experimental interests in exploring the long-lasting entanglement between weakly interacting spins to long distances in realistic environments.
