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.

     

Entanglement Dynamics of Two Atoms in the Squeezed Vacuum and the Coherent Fields

We investigate the entanglement dynamics of two atoms in a double damping Jaynes-Cummings model. The two atoms are initially in the Bell states and each is in a squeezed vacuum cavity field or coherent cavity field. Compared with the case in coherent field, the atomic entanglement in the squeezed vacuum field is stronger under the same conditions. The results show that we can adopt appropriate parameters such as mean photon number, detuning, the atomic spontaneous decay and the cavity decay, to realize better control of atomic entanglement in quantum information processing. What’s worth mentioning is that proper choosing of the last two parameters enables us to decrease disentanglement period and postpone the moment when the entanglement disappears. Finally, the atomic entanglement in double damping and non-identical Jaynes-Cummings model is obtained

The Influences of the Selective Atomic Measurement on Entanglement Properties in the System of Three Atoms Trapped in Two Distant Cavities Connected by an Optical Fiber

Three two-level atoms are trapped in two initially empty cavities connected by an optical fiber. The entanglement evolution between two atoms in the same cavity and the entanglement evolution between two cavities are investigated. The influence of the state-selective measurement of the atom trapped in the other cavity on the entanglement and that of fiber-cavity coupling coefficient on the entanglement are discussed. The results obtained show that atom-atom entanglement property is strengthened, and cavity-cavity entanglement property is weakened with increasing of the cavity-fiber coupling coefficient. On the other hand, the results also show that the entanglement between two cavities and that between two atoms in the same cavity can be strengthened through the state-selective measurement on the atom trapped in the other cavity.     

Influences of Detuning on Geometrical Quantum Discord in Coupled Cavities System

Geometrical quantum discord (GQD) is adopted to quantify the degree of correlation between two subsystems. We consider the situation that two two-level atoms are separately trapped in coupled single-mode cavities, and each atom non-resonantly interacts with cavity via a one-photon hopping. GQD dynamic between atoms and that between cavities are studied. The influences of detuning on GQD dynamics are discussed. The results obtained by the numerical method show that GQD between atoms is strengthened with the increase of the detuning. Contrarily, GQD between cavities is weakened with the increase of the detuning.     

Entanglement Properties in the System of Three Atoms Trapped in Three Distant Cavities Connected by Two Optical Fibers

This paper discusses the entanglement dynamics of a coupled cavity quantum electrodynamics (CQED) setup, which comprises three two-level atoms resonantly interacting with three cavities that are coupled by two optical fibers. The influences of atom-cavity coupling constant on the entanglement between atoms and that between cavities are discussed. The results obtained from the numerical method show that the entanglement between non-adjacent atoms or that between adjacent cavities has a nonlinear relation with increasing of the atom-cavity coupling coefficient. On the other hand, the entanglement between non-adjacent cavities is strengthened and the entanglement between adjacent atoms is weakened with increasing of atom-cavity coupling constant.

The Entanglement Properties Induced by Atoms in Two Separate Cavities Connected by an Optical Fiber

We study the entanglement evolution between two atoms, which are initially entangled with a third atom and trapped in two separated cavities coupled by an optical fiber. We also investigate the temporal evolution in the entanglement between the atom and the local cavity mode. The influence of the state-selective measurement on the atom outside the cavities and the influence of cavity-fiber coupling coefficient on the entanglement are discussed. The results show that the entanglement can be strengthened through the state-selective measurement on the atom outside the cavities. We also find that, by increasing the cavity-fiber coupling coefficient, the atom-atom entanglement is strengthened, but the atom-cavity entanglement is weakened.     

A novel scheme of hybrid entanglement swapping and teleportation using cavity QED in the small and large detuning regimes and quasi-Bell state measurement method

We outline a scheme for entanglement swapping based on cavity QED as well as quasi-Bell state measurement(quasiBSM) methods. The atom–field interaction in the cavity QED method is performed in small and large detuning regimes.We assume two atoms are initially entangled together and, distinctly two cavities are prepared in an entangled coherent–coherent state. In this scheme, we want to transform entanglement to the atom-field system. It is observed that, the fidelities of the swapped entangled state in the quasi-BSM method can be compatible with those obtained in the small and large detuning regimes in the cavity QED method(the condition of this compatibility will be discussed). In addition, in the large detuning regime, the swapped entangled state is obtained by detecting and quasi-BSM approaches. In the continuation,by making use of the atom–field entangled state obtained in both approaches in a large detuning regime, we show that the atomic as well as field states teleportation with complete fidelity can be achieved.     

Perfect State Transfer and Entanglement Generation with Coupled Cavities

We study atomic state transfer and entanglement generation when the N atomic ensemble is trapped in two coupled cavities. We show that based on the collective interaction between the atoms and local cavity fields an ideal quantum state transfer can be realized if some special conditions are satisfied. In addition, the maximal atom entangled state can be achieved. The effect of the cavity losses on the quantum processes is also studied.

Control and Transfer of Entanglement between Two Atoms Driven by Classical Fields under Dressed-State Representation

We have studied the dynamics and transfer of the entanglement of the two identical atoms simultaneously interacting with vacuum field by employing the dressed-state representation. The two atoms are driven by classical fields. The influence of the initial entanglement degree of two atoms, the coupling strength between the atom and the classical field and the detuning between the atomic transition frequency and the frequency of classical field on the entanglement and atomic linear entropy is discussed. The initial entanglement of the two atoms can be transferred into the entanglement between the atom and cavity field when the dissipation is neglected. The maximally entangled state between the atoms and cavity field can be obtained under some certain conditions. The time of disentanglement of two atoms can be controlled and manipulated by adjusting the detuning and classical driving fields. Moreover, the larger the cavity decay rate is, the more quickly the entanglement of the two atoms decays.

Entangling Two Multi-atomic Clusters Through a Cavity Field

Two atomic clusters, which have NA and Ns two-level atoms, respectively, are placed in a cavity but separated spatially. There is no direct interaction between the atoms. All the atoms interact with a single-mode of the cavity field. Quantum entanglement between the two atomic clusters is investigated for various initial states of the two atomic clusters and the field. When the cavity field is initially in a Fock state, we find that the time evolution of entanglement quasi-periodically oscillates regardless of the initial states of atoms. The oscillation period increases as the initial photon number increases. When all the atoms in both of the atomic clusters are initially in the excited state, we show that there is no entanglement between the atomic clusters with NA = NB = 1 regardless the initial state of the cavity field. However, when either NA or NB is larger than one, we find that the entanglement always exists even for a strong thermal field. In cases with different initial states of the atomic clusters, we notice that the entanglement becomes stronger as number of the atoms increases. When all the atoms in both of the clusters in the ground state, we also find that the entanglement can be enhanced even by a thermal field. We also notice that a single qubit can be entangled with multi-atoms which are initially in the ground state by the cavity field initially being in vacuum, thermal, coherent, and squeezed states.
