Description
Summary:Realistic quantum systems are affected by environmental loss, which is often seen as detrimental for applications in quantum technologies. Alternatively, weak coupling to an environment can aid in stabilizing highly entangled and mixed states, but determining optimal system-environment parameters can be challenging. Here, we describe a technique to optimize parameters for generating desired nonequilibrium steady states (NESSs) in driven-dissipative quantum systems governed by the Lindblad equation. We apply this approach to predict highly entangled and mixed NESSs in Ising, Kitaev, and Dicke models in several quantum phases.
