Abstract
Harnessing the dynamics of a microscopic system lies at the core of quantum information processing. For quantum systems with a small number of spins, optimal control has been shown to be an efficient method to realize high-fidelity quantum control. As the number of the spins increases, it becomes challenging to steer the dynamics of the quantum system due to the exponentially increasing dimension of Hilbert space. Herein, we propose a method to realize optimal control of a spin bath consisting of hundreds of spins. A central spin is used to monitor the dynamics of the spin bath under a control Hamiltonian. The information obtained from the central spin is fed back to the control Hamilton to realize optimal control over the spin bath. We take a nitrogen vacancy (NV) center in diamond as an example, and our numerical simulation shows that the dephasing time of the NV center can be improved by more than 2 orders of magnitude. Furthermore, our method is compatible with dc magnetometry, whose sensitivity can be improved by an order of magnitude compared to conventional Ramsey interference. Our method is also feasible for various other spin-based systems, such as quantum dots, phosphorus-doped silicon, and defects in silicon carbide.
