Quantum entanglement in the system of two two-level atoms interacting with a single-mode vacuum field

The entanglement properties of the system of two two-level atoms interacting with a single-mode vacuum field are explored. The quantum entanglement between two two-level atoms and a single-mode vacuum field is investigated by using the quantum reduced entropy; the quantum entanglement between two two-level atoms, and that between a single two-level atom and a single-mode vacuum field are studied in terms of the quantum relative entropy. The influences of the atomic dipole--dipole interaction on the quantum entanglement of the system are also discussed. Our results show that three entangled states of two atoms--field, atom--atom, and atom--field can be prepared via two two-level atoms interacting with a single-mode vacuum field.     

Influence of Intrinsic Decoherence on Entanglement of Superconducting Charge Qubit in a Resonant Cavity

Taking the intrinsic decoherence effect into account, we investigate the entanglement dynamics of a superconducting charge qubit in a single-mode optical cavity. Concurrence, as the measure of entanglement of the coupled field-junction system, is calculated. In comparison, we also consider the entanglement of the system by using the entanglement parameter based on the ratio between mutual entropy and partial Von-Neumann entropy to investigate how the intrinsic decoherence affects the entanglement of the coupling system. Our results show that the evolution of the entanglement parameter has the behaviour similar to the concurrence and it is thus the well measure of entanglement for the mixed state in such a coupling system.

Effects of inhomogeneous couplings between atoms and acavity field on entanglement dynamics

Based on the concept of concurrence, we have investigated the entanglement dynamics of two two-level atoms coupled to a single-mode cavity field with inhomogeneous couplings. We find that, for some initial states, the inhomogeneous couplings not only induce but also enhance the entanglement in the process of its evolution. In addition, considering the intrinsic decoherence proposed by Milburn, we also find that a proper value of inhomogeneous couplings can enhance the stationary entanglement, and as a result, the destructive effect of intrinsic decoherence on entanglement can be moderated by the inhomogeneous couplings.     

Entanglement Properties in a Star Structure Coupled Cavities System

In this paper, the star structure coupled cavities system is composed of six single-mode cavities. One of them is at the center of the star structure, and other five cavities are at the five vertices of the star structure, respectively. The center cavity is connected with other five cavities by optical fibers. The situation is considered that six identical two-level atoms are separately trapped in six single-mode optical cavities, each atom resonantly interacts with cavity via a one-photon hopping, and the total excitation number of the system equals one. Negativity is adopted to quantify the degree of entanglement between two subsystems. The entanglement properties between atoms and that between cavities are investigated. The influences of atom-cavity coupling coefficient on the entanglement properties between two subsystems are studied. The results obtained using the numerical method show that the atom-atom entanglement is weakened, and the cavity-cavity entanglement is strengthened with the increase of atom-cavity coupling coefficient.

     

Two-mode excited entangled coherent states and their entanglement properties

This paper introduces two types of two-mode excited entangled coherent states (TMEECSs) |Ψ_±(α,m,n)>, studies their entanglement characteristics, and investigates the influence of photon excitations on quantum entanglement. It shows that for the state |Ψ₊(α,m,m)> the two-mode photon excitations affect seriously entanglement character while the state |Ψ_-(α,m,m)> is always a maximally entangled state, and shows how such states can be produced by using cavity quantum electrodynamics and quantum measurements. It finds that the entanglement amount of the TMEECSs is larger than that of the single-mode excited entangled coherent states with the same photon excitation number.

Entanglement sudden death of two atoms interacting with a cavity via the two-photon process in a strong-driving-assisted system

We examine the entanglement dynamics between two strongly driven atoms off-resonantly coupled with a single-mode cavity via the two-photon process with the help of negativity in two different types of initial states. The results show that entanglement sudden death may occur under both the above conditions and the sudden death effect can be monitored by modulating the atom--cavity detunings. Furthermore, we also find an atomic decoherence-free subspace so that the initial entanglement between two atoms remains invariable in application.     

Entanglement evolution of a two-qubit system with decay beyond the rotating-wave approximation

The entanglement property of two identical atoms, initially entangled in Bell states, coupled to a single-mode cavity is considered. Based on the reduced non-perturbative quantum master equation method, the entanglement evolution of the two atoms with decay is investigated beyond the conventional rotating-wave approximation. We show that the counter-rotating wave terms, usually neglected, have a great influence on the disentanglement behaviour of the system. The phenomena of entanglement sudden death and entanglement sudden birth will occur. In addition, we show that the entanglement can be strengthened by introducing the dipole--dipole interaction of the two atoms.

Factors influencing entanglement of two excitons in a coupled exciton-photon system

The relation between the excitonic purity and the concurrence in a system of two coupled large semiconduction quantum dots mediated by a single-mode cavity field is investigated by using linear entropy theory. The results show the difference in describing two modes of excitonic entanglement between linear entropy and concurrence. The relation between nonclassical property of cavity field and the entanglement degree of excitons is also discussed. The results show that two modes of exciton can reach maximal entanglement when the cavity exhibits an antibunching effect.

Entanglement in a system of two two-level atoms interacting with a single-mode field

We investigate the entanglement in a system of two coupling atoms interacting with a single-mode field by means of quantum information entropy theory. The quantum entanglement between the two atoms and the coherent field is discussed by using the quantum reduced entropy, and the entanglement between the two coupling atoms is also investigated by using the quantum relative entropy. In addition, the influences of the atomic dipole--dipole interaction intensity and the average photon number of the coherent field on the degree of the entanglement is examined. The results show that the evolution of the degree of entanglement between the two atoms and the field is just opposite to that of the degree of entanglement between the two atoms. And the properties of the quantum entanglement in the system rely on the atomic dipole--dipole interaction and the average photon number of the coherent field.

Entanglement of Two Atoms Induced by a Fock State of Radiation Field

Considering the intrinsic decoherence proposed by Milburn, we investigate the entanglement between two two-level atoms induced by a Fock state of single-mode quantized radiation field. The time-dependent reduced density matrix of the atoms system is given explicitly. Due to the intrinsic decoherence, the atoms system will approach a stationary state, where the stationary entanglement depends on the initial states of the field and the atoms.     

The Dynamics of Quantum Discord and Entanglement of Three Atoms Coupled to Three Spatially Separate Cavities

In this paper, we study the dynamics of quantum discord and entanglement of three identical two-level atoms simultaneously resonantly interacting with three spatially separate single-mode of high-Q cavities respectively. Taking advantage of the depiction quantum discord and entanglement of formation (EoF), we conclude that the discord and entanglement of atoms and cavities can be mediated by changing some parameters and the maximum values of discord and entanglement are independent on the couplings of cavities and atoms. In particular, there also exists quantum discord sudden death as well as entanglement sudden death and the time interval of the former is shorter than that of the later in the proposed quantum system. It is shown that the discord and entanglement of any two atoms among three atoms can be transferred to the corresponding cavities, and there exists discord and entanglement exchanging between the atoms and the corresponding cavities.     

Entanglement evolution and transfer in a double Tavis--Cumming model in cavity QED

We have studied entanglement evolution and transfer in a double Tavis--Cumming model where two pairs of entangled two-level atoms AB and CD interact with two single-mode cavity fields a and b. We show that the Bell-like initial state of atoms AB can exhibit entanglement sudden death which should be independent of the initial entanglement of atoms CD. Also, we show that the initial entanglement of one atomic pair can be transferred into another pair, as well as the possible subsystems, that become entangled during evolution.
