contents We theoretically study the quantum speed limits (QSLs) of a qubit system coupled to a thermal dephasing environment with an Ohmic-like spectral density. Based on the geometric QSLs time bound, which is derived by employing the trace distance to quantify the geodesic between two distinguishable states in dynamical evolution, we study the influences of the temperature and spectral density of the environment on the QSLs time of the dephasing qubit. We also investigate the interplay between the QSLs time, the environmental temperature, and the spectral density of the environment. It has been demonstrated that, the QSLs time closely depends on the transition frequency and the dynamical behavior (e.g., coherence trapping) of the dephasing qubit. For a fixed Ohmicity parameter of the environmental spectral density, the increase of environmental temperature can enhance the QSLs time bound. In addition, when the environmental temperature remains constant, the increase in the Ohmicity parameter initially leads to a reduction in the QSLs time bound, which is then followed by an increase of the time bound of QSLs. Our results can help to better understand the QSLs in the dynamics of open quantum systems and have potential application in the modulation of QSLs time in the dephasing qubit by engineering the spectral density of the environment.
