Abstract

We consider two one-dimensional quantum XX magnets linked by a periodically driven quantum point contact. If magnets are initially polarized in opposite directions, one expects that a spin current through the quantum point contact will establish. It has been shown recently [Phys. Rev. B 103, L041405 (2021)] that, in fact, when the driving frequency exceeds a critical value, the current halts completely, the quantum point contact being effectively insulating. Here we enquire how this picture is affected by quantum dephasing. Our findings reveal that any nonzero dephasing restores the current.
