Acceleration of Adiabatic Quantum State Transfer in a spin chain under zero-energy-change pulse control

We present a protocol for accelerating adiabatic quantum state transfer through a spin chain by adding an effective control pulse. Using Feshbach P-Q partitioning technique, we obtain the one-component dynamical equation which guides us to set the amplitude and period of the control field. This field can be a sequence of alternatively negative and positive (zero-energy change) pulses which can be realized easily in experiment. As an example, we discuss a three particles spin chain and the numerical calculation shows that the accelerated quantum state transfer can be obtained.
