Since the pioneering works by Landau, Zener, Stückelberg, and Majorana (LZSM), it has
been known that driving a quantum two-level system results in tunneling between its states …

We review the physical phenomena that arise when quantum mechanical energy levels are
modulated in time. The dynamics resulting from changes in the transition frequency is a …

A quantum two-level system with periodically modulated energy splitting could provide a
minimal universal quantum heat machine. We present the experimental realization and the …

We develop a general framework to describe the thermodynamics of microscopic heat
engines driven by arbitrary periodic temperature variations and modulations of a mechanical …

We present experiments on the driven dynamics of a two-level superconducting artificial
atom. The driving strength reaches 4.78 GHz, significantly exceeding the transition …

Fast and robust quantum state transfer (QST) is a major requirement in quantum control and
in scalable quantum information processing. Topological protection has emerged as a …

Quantum mechanical effects induced by the miniaturization of complementary metal-oxide-
semiconductor (CMOS) technology hamper the performance and scalability prospects of …

The ability to control the direction of scattered light is crucial to provide flexibility and
scalability for a wide range of on-chip applications, such as integrated photonics, quantum …

The importance of dissipation engineering ranges from universal quantum computation to
non‐equilibrium quantum thermodynamics. In recent years, more and more theoretical and …

In the standard Landau-Zener-Stückelberg-Majorana (LZSM) problem, the bias sweep rate
and gap are both time independent and fully characterize the LZSM problem. We consider …
