Landau–Zener–Stückelberg–Majorana-like dynamics induced by tunneling of spin qubit states in a multiband two-state magnetic quantum wire

We investigate the transfer between spin quantum bit (qubit) states and study the Landau–Zener–Stückelberg–Majorana (LZSM)-like dynamics of tunneling spin qubits in a multiband two-state magnetic quantum wire. Indeed, within the framework of an optical parabolic potential in a three-dimensional (3D) heterostructure quantum wire and under the influence of an external time-varying magnetic field, a model for a multiband two-state magnetic quantum wire is developed. Here, the external magnetic field is used to coherently manipulate and control spin qubit states. By driving the system through an avoided crossing, we consider the associated effective quantum two-level system (TLS) related to the spin qubit states in each band, driving by an external coherent magnetic field in which the related Hamiltonian is Hermitian, and which generally paves a way to LZSM interferometry. Thus, we establish the analytical expressions of the energy eigenvalues in each band and derive the analytical solution of the dynamical evolution of the tunneling probabilities of the associated TLS. Accordingly, nonadiabatic and adiabatic tunneling probabilities (survival and transition) are calculated for each band of the multiband TLS. In this respect, the nonadiabatic and adiabatic dynamical evolutions of the tunneling probabilities of spin qubit populations in the first four bands, with band quantum numbers n = 0, 1, 2 and 3 are analyzed. As a result, depending on the amplitude strength of the driven magnetic field and the magnitude of the driving frequency, we report two striking nonadiabatic and adiabatic scenarios in each band for both the diabatic and adiabatic states. In this context, driving the two states of each band of the multiband TLS related to the spin qubit states through an avoided level crossing can result in nontrivial and incoherent dynamics at certain phases, resulting to apparent inaccurate probabilities, especially in the case of strong driven magnetic field and high driving frequency.
