• Abstract: We study transient entanglement generation between two quantum nodes coupled through a chiral one-dimensional channel. In an emitter-only Born-Markov description, we show that continuous driving and an initial ground state can raise the maximum transient concurrence above the undriven $2/e$ benchmark associated with the effectively single-excitation model. We then consider a more microscopic XX spin-chain channel with triangular plaquette couplings and compare a nonsecular time-convolutionless master equation (TCL-ME) with matrix-product-state (MPS) simulations. In the optimal driven regime, the nonsecular TCL-2 treatment reproduces the concurrence envelope and first transient peak qualitatively, while the remaining discrepancy is mainly attributable to beyond-Born system-bath correlations. The enhancement is traced to the failure of the secular approximation under strong driving, where nearby dressed transitions are not well separated on the dissipative timescale and nonsecular terms mix dressed-state coherences. Finally, we examine within TCL-2 the sensitivity of the protocol to positional disorder, imperfect chirality, and loss into nonguided modes. These results clarify when the familiar $2/e$ limitation ceases to apply and separate the roles of secular breakdown, Born-factorization error, and reduced-state memory in driven chiral entanglement generation; we believe that our study contributes to one of the first studies where the breakdown of the secular approximation is useful rather than detrimental.

  The interplay between information-scrambling Hamiltonians and local continuous measurements hosts platforms for exotic measurement-induced phase transition. We identify a non-monotonic dependence on the local noise strength in both the averaged entanglement and operator correlations. The analysis of scaling with the system size in a finite length chain indicates that, at finite efficiency, this effect leads to distinct MiPTs for operator correlations and entanglement.

  We investigate the corresponding non-Hermitian tight-binding model and evaluate the gain/loss effects on various properties of the system. We find that the conventional bulk-boundary correspondence does not break down with only on-site gain/loss due to the lack of non-Hermitian skin effect. Given the technical accessibility of state-dependent atom loss, this model could be realized in current cold-atom experiments.
