Abstract

In this paper, we propose a scheme to generate a Fredkin gate in a single step based on path engineering. The quantum Zeno dynamics is utilized to simplify the Hamiltonian. As a result, an effective Hamiltonian will be obtained to drive the system to evolve into the target state in a short time if reasonable parameters are set. In addition, the results of explicit numerical simulations indicate that the scheme is robust against the instability of experimental parameters and the decoherence arising from atomic spontaneous emission and cavity decay. Most importantly, our scheme is just a single step, which greatly simplifies actual operation.
