Abstract
An experimentally feasible scheme is proposed for rapidly generating two-atom qutrit entanglement with one step. As one technique of shortcuts to adiabaticity, transitionless quantum driving is applied to speed up the adiabatic generation of two-atom qutrit entanglement. Apart from the rapid rate, the scheme has much higher experimental feasibility than the recent research (Yang et al. in Quantum Inf Process 16:15, 2017). Besides, numerical simulations indicate the scheme has strong robustness against parameter deviations and decoherence.
