Description
We study within the spin-boson dynamics the synchronization of quantum tunneling with an external periodic driving signal. As a main result we find that at a sufficiently large system-bath coupling strength (Kondo parameter a>1) the thermal noise plays a constructive role in yielding both a frequency and a phase synchronization in a symmetric two-level system. Such riveting synchronization occurs when the driving frequency supersedes the zero temperature tunneling rate. As an application evidencing the effect, we consider a charge transfer dynamics in molecular complexes.
