Optimal control of quantum systems
Greg von Winckel
The control of quantum electronic states in physical systems has a host of applications such as quantum computers, control of photochemical processes, and semiconductor lasers.
The aim of this work is to compute a time-dependent control which appears as a variable coefficient in the Schrödinger equation, such that a particle in a given initial state will have maximal probability of being in a target state at a specified time.
