基于量子点接触的开放双量子点系统电子转移特性

基于量子点接触探测器(QPC)理论上研究了双量子点(DQD)系统在耗散环境和纯退相环境影响下的电子转移特性.结果表明,耗散环境中探测器导致的退相干会增大平均电流和Fano factor随时间演化的值,并观察到量子芝诺效应的存在.在对称的DQD情况下,弛豫减小了平均电流随时间演化的震荡振幅.在非对称的DQD情况下,弛豫降低了Fano factor随时间演化的峰值.纯退相环境中测量会阻碍共隧穿过程中不同电流通道之间的转换,导致Fano factor的极高值.在对称的DQD情况下,增大纯退相速率会提高Fano factor.在非对称的DQD情况下,动力学随时间的演化对纯退相环境不敏感.另外,还发现探测器内n个电子的转移几率只受QPC与DQD耦合的影响.我们的结论可以为实验工作者研究电子输运特性提供理论参考.

Decoherence and entanglement in coherent quantum tunneling of magnetization with dissipation

We study the coherent quantum tunneling of magnetization, for example, in a biaxial molecular magnet with dissipation of the environment which results in the suppression of the tunneling and therefore the decoherence of superposition of macroscopic quantum states in terms of the general spin-boson model. The degree of entanglement between the magnet and the environment is evaluated explicitly with the help of reduced density matrix. We show an interesting relation that the degree of entanglement approaches maximum value when the coherent tunneling is suppressed completely.     

Entanglement Swapping of Pair Coherent States with Phase Decoherence

We investigate the entanglement swapping of continuous state and the two-mode squeezed vacuum which is exposed variable using the pair coherent state as the input in a phase decoherence environment as the quantum channel. By adopting the log-negativity as the measure of entanglement, we analyze how entanglement of the two initial states and the phase decoherence environment affect the entanglement swapping quality.     

激光场的经典极限条件及其在量子门中的应用

当一个二能级原子(在量子计算中可看成一个量子位)与一相干光场作用时,一般来说原子将与光场关联,原子不再作幺正演化.这样,在量子计算中,即使不考虑量子位与环境的耦合,量子位态也将发生消相干;但当光场的平均光子数足够大时,可忽略它们之间的关联,原子则作幺正演化.本文详细说明了这一点,并指出大的平均光子数是实现量子计算中量子门的必要条件.     

Quantum control of two-qubit entanglement dissipation

We investigate quantum control of the dissipation of entanglement under environmental decoherence. We show by means of a simple two-qubit model that standard control methods – coherent or openloop control – will not in general prevent entanglement loss induced by a Markovian environment. However, we propose a control method utilizing a Wiseman–Milburn feedback/measurement control scheme which will effectively negate environmental entanglement dissipation.     

Entangled Subspaces for Two Coupled Qubits in a Normal Environment

By investigating the effect of environmental perturbations on two initially coupled qubits, we find that the interactions between the qubits and between the qubits and the environment are not only the source of decoherence, but also the power of avoiding disentanglement. It is shown that there are the entangled subspaces for four kinds of different coupling ways between the qubits, in which the qubits preserve entanglement all the time. Thus, any new coherent source does not be introduced to preserve entanglement in the entangled subspaces.     

The effect of channel decoherence on entangled coherent states: A theoretical analysis

We analyze decoherence properties of entangled coherent states due to channel losses. Employing the concept of “entanglement of formation”, degradation of fidelity and degree of entanglement are calculated. We have obtained an explicit expression of concurrence concerning the symmetric noise channel and found our result is just incompatible with that of [K. Park, H. Jeong, Phys. Rev. A 82 (2010) 062325] measured by negativity in the limit of α→0. We demonstrate that entangled coherent states with sufficient small amplitudes are more robust against channel decoherence than Bell states.     

Two-Qubit Local Fisher Information Correlation beyond Entanglement in a Nonlinear Generalized Cavity with an Intrinsic Decoherence

In this paper, we study a Hamiltonian system constituted by two coupled two-level atoms (qubits) interacting with a nonlinear generalized cavity field. The nonclassical two-qubit correlation dynamics are investigated using Bures distance entanglement and local quantum Fisher information under the influences of intrinsic decoherence and qubit–qubit interaction. The effects of the superposition of two identical generalized coherent states and the initial coherent field intensity on the generated two-qubit correlations are investigated. Entanglement of sudden death and sudden birth of the Bures distance entanglement as well as the sudden changes in local Fisher information are observed. We show that the robustness, against decoherence, of the generated two-qubit correlations can be controlled by qubit–qubit coupling and the initial coherent cavity states.     

Quantum Correlation and Coherence in Dissipative Two SC-Qubit Systems Interacting with a Coherent SC-Cavity

An analytical solution of the master equation is obtained for a coherent SC-cavity interacts with two SC-qubits. With this solution, the effect of an intrinsic decoherence on the growth of coherence loss (mixture) and the entanglement degradation is shown. Due to the intrinsic decoherence, the oscillatory behavior of the qubit-inversion is deteriorated, and its amplitude decreases. Where its stationary state refers to that the energy is stored more in the SC-qubits. The growth of the mixture is investigated for the entire system and its sub-systems of the SC-cavity and two qubits. The entanglement is studied for two different partitions, between the SC-cavity and the two qubits as well as between the two qubits. It is found that the generation of the entanglement and mixture and their stationary values depend on the initial coherence intensity and the intrinsic decoherence rate. The stationary entanglement and mixture, and the phenomena of sudden appearance and disappearance of the entanglement could be controlled by adjusting the intrinsic noise rate and the initial coherence intensity.

     

Decoherence Sensing of Entangled-Coherent-State Channels via Unambiguous Quantum State Filtering

Unambiguous quantum state filtering is applied to evaluation of the decoherence sensing of entangled quantum channels consisting of N-mode entangled coherent states. It is found that quantum entanglement can enhance the performance of decoherence sensing while the increase of the mode numbers in the entangled probe field can slightly improve the sensing performance only in the weak field regime.     

Entanglement and Decoherence in Two-Dimensional Coherent State Superpositions

A detailed investigation of entanglement in the generalized two-dimensional nonorthogonal states, which are expressed in the framework of superposed coherent states, is presented. In addition to quantifying entanglement of the generalized two-dimensional coherent states superposition, necessary and sufficient conditions for maximality of entanglement of these states are found. We show that a large class of maximally entangled coherent states can be constructed, and hence, some new maximally entangled coherent states are explicitly manipulated. The investigation is extended to the mixed system states and entanglement properties of such mixed states are investigated. It is shown that in some cases maximally entangled mixed states can be detected. Furthermore, the effect of decoherence, due to both cavity losses and noisy channel process, on such entangled states are studied and its features are discussed.
