Robust Generation of Logical Qubit Singlet States with Reverse Engineering and Optimal Control with Spin Qubits

A protocol is proposed to generate singlet states of three logical qubits constructed by pairs of spins. Single and multiple operations of logical qubits are studied for the construction of an effective Hamiltonian, with which robust control fields are derived with invariant-based reverse engineering and optimal control. Moreover, systematic errors are further compensated by periodic modulation for better robustness. Furthermore, resistance to random noise and decoherence of the protocol is also shown with numerical simulations. Therefore, the protocol may provide useful perspectives for the generation of logical qubit entanglement in spin systems.
