In this paper, we present a coherent feedback control scheme for non-Markovian bosonic systems, in which an engineered quantum control field is introduced to couple both the system and the noise bath. The closed-loop dynamics of the system is described by an exact non-Markovian quantum Langevin equation, where the spectral density functions of the noise and the quantum control field, as well as their coupling, are combined into a single memory kernel function. We show that the coupling between the quantum control field with the noise bath can be used as a feedback control to modulate the memory kernel function. As a result, the noise bath can be driven out of resonance with the system and the decoherence can be efficiently suppressed. The effectiveness of the controllability is demonstrated with a photonic circuit in photonic crystals.
