Entanglement and sudden death of two two-level atoms interacting with a cavity field in presence of degenerate parametric amplifier

In the presence of degenerate two-photon transitions the problem of the interaction between two two-level atoms and a single-mode is considered. Near resonance case, a closed form of the analytic solution for the wave function is obtained. The entanglement between an atom and field in the interacting system is studied by using the change in atomic and field entropies. The relationship between entropy changes and concurrence entanglement is discussed. Our results show that the behavior of the entropy change in agreement with the behavior of the concurrence to measure the entanglement between two subsystem structures.     

Classical harmonic vibrations with micro amplitudes and low frequencies monitored by quantum entanglement

We study the entanglement dynamics of the two two-level atoms coupled with a single-mode polarized cavity field after incorporating the decoupled atomic centers of mass classical harmonic vibrations with micro amplitudes and low frequencies. We discover a new quantum mechanical measurement effect for the entanglement dynamics. We propose a quantitative vibrant factor to modify the concurrence of the two atomic states. When the vibrant frequencies are very low, we obtain that: (1) the factor depends on the relative vibrant displacements and the initial phases rather than the absolute amplitudes, and reduces the concurrence to three orders of magnitude; (2) the concurrence increases with the increase of the initial phases; (3) the frequency of the harmonic vibration can be obtained by measuring the maximal value of the concurrence during a small measurement time. These results indicate that the extremely weak classical harmonic vibrations can be monitored by the entanglement of quantum states. The effect reported in the paper always works well as long as the internal degrees of freedom of the system (regardless of unitary evolution or non-unitary evolution with time) are decoupled with the external classical harmonic vibrations of atomic centers of mass.     

Formation of three-body entanglement via a vacuum optical cavity induction in Tavis-Cummings model

After briefly introducing Akhtarshenas, concurrence vector and subvector for describing many-body entanglement, we investigate the entanglement formation for a system which contains three bodies, i.e. two identical atoms and a single- model cavity field, in the Tavis-Cummings model by calculating the concurrences. The results show that the coupling strength between two atoms, the decay cavity and the atomic spontaneous emission can change the entanglement of formation according to different modes： these factors destroy periodicity and symmetry of all concurrences, and that the coupling strength of two atoms does not change the peak value of concurrence （C）, but the strength of decay cavity and the atomic spontaneous emission decline in the peak value of concurrence （C） and the latter is more serious than the former under the same strengths. The concurrence vector and subvector are a useful measure of entanglement for a pure state of the many-body system, in that it can give novel pictures about the entanglements for the entire system and between its inner bodies.     

Entanglement and Sudden Death of a Nonlinear Two-Level-Atom Pair Interacting with a Radiation Field

We study the entanglement between a pair of two-level atoms simultaneously interacting via a singlemode thermal field. The Hamiltonian also describes a two-photon process. The entanglement between a nonlinear atom-field interacting system is also studied using atomic and field entropy changes. We use concurrence to detect the sudden death phenomenon. Furthermore, we discuss the relationship between entropy changes and concurrence entanglement. Our results show that the behavior of the entropy change is in agreement with the behavior of the concurrence when we measure the entanglement between the two-subsystem structure.

Concurrence of Quantum States： Algebraic Dynamical Method Study XXX Models in a Time-Depending Random External Field

Based on algebraic dynamics and the concept of the concurrence of the entanglement, we investigate the evolutive properties of the two-qubit entanglement that formed by Heisenberg XXX models under a time-depending external field. For this system, the property of the concurrence that is only dependent on the coupling constant J and total values of the external field is proved. Furthermore, we found that the thermal concurrence of the system under a static random external field is a function of the coupling constant J, temperature T, and the magnitude of external field.     

Entanglement and Optimal Dense Coding in Spin Chain with an Arbitrary Magnetic Field

The entanglement and optimal dense coding at entangled states of a 1D Ising chain in the presence of an external magnetic field with an arbitrary direction, are investigated. The entanglement concurrence and the optimal dense coding capacity are calculated for different orientations of the magnetic field. It has been found that the direction of external magnetic field has effects on the entanglement concurrence and optimal dense coding capacity. In the case of antiferromagnet, the quantum phase transition occurs when an external magnetic field is parallel to Ising orientation. The concurrence increases when the angle between the direction of magnetic field and Ising orientation become smaller at ground state in certain parameter regimes, so does the optimal dense coding. The maximum moves toward the direction perpendicular to the Ising orientation in higher temperature. In contrast, the more concurrence and optimal dense coding can be produced only in the case of an external magnetic field perpendicular to Ising orientation at zero and low temperature for ferromagnetic case.

Sudden birth of entanglement between two atoms successively passing a thermal cavity

We study the dynamics of entanglement of two initially separate atoms passing through a cavity one after another by employing the concurrence and negativity. The effects of the atomic coherence and mean photon number on the time evolution of atom-atom entanglement are examined when the field is initially in thermal field. We show that the phenomenon of sudden birth of entanglement occurs in some certain conditions and the threshold time for the creation of the entanglement can be controlled by the atomic coherence and mean photon number of the field. It is also shown that the entanglement between two atoms can be created even if the two atoms are initially in excited states.     

Quantum Teleportation via a Two-Qubit Ising Heisenberg Chain with an Arbitrary Magnetic Field

The quantum teleportation via a two-qubit Ising Heisenberg chain in the presence of an external magnetic field with an arbitrary direction are investigated. The effect of the orientation of an external magnetic field on the entanglement teleportation has been analyzed numerically. It is found that the teleported thermal concurrence and average fidelity can be maximized by rotating the magnetic field (with fixed magnitude) to an optimal direction. The ferromagnetic channel is not suitable to teleportation. A minimal entanglement of the thermal state is needed to realize the entanglement teleportation for antiferromagnetic channel. It is also found that the entanglement of the channel cannot completely reflect the teleported concurrence and average fidelity. There exist double-value phenomena between them.     

Entanglement dynamics of two atoms successively passing a cavity

By means of concurrence, we investigate the dynamics of entanglement between two initially separate atoms in succession passing through a cavity and their interaction with a Fock state field. We then analyze the effects of the atomic coherence, photon number, and atomic motion on the time evolution of atom-atom entanglement. The results show that there can be entanglement between two separate atoms, and that the threshold time for the creation of the entanglement is controllable by the photon number, atomic motion, and field-mode structure.     

Entanglement of Non-symmetric Two Atomic Qubits Induced by a Coherent State Field

The entanglement of two atomic qubits, which are coupled to a coherent state field with different couplings, is studied. The dynamical evolution of the concurrence, which measures the degree of the entanglement between the two qubits, is plotted versus the scaled time gt. It is found that the two qubits can be entangled by the coherent state field even when they are initially prepared in the most mixed state, and for very weak field, the most mixed state can be more easily entangled than some pure states. It is also found that the entanglement between the qubits sensitively depends on the relative difference of the atomic couplings and the mean photon number of the field.     

Entangled Two Two-Level Atom in the Presence of External Classical Fields

In this contribution, we investigate a TTLAs (two two-level atoms) in interaction with an electromagnetic field in presence of the external classical fields. The general solution of the time evolution operator is obtained and used to derive the density matrix operator. The temporal evolution of the atomic inversion, the degree of entanglement measured by the negativity, as well as the single atom entropy squeezing are discussed. We consider the atomic system at either the upper or Bell states, while the field in the coherent state. It has been shown that the coupling parameter g (the coupling of the external classical fields) gets more effective for the case in which the g is not equal to zero. Also for a strong coupling parameter g the superstructure phenomenon can be reported. The results shown that for increase the value of the classical external fields parameter leads to the entanglement between the atoms and the fields gets stronger. Also it has shown that for specific value of the classical external fields the system never reaches the pure state except during the revival periods.     

Qualitative aspects of the entanglement in the three-level model with photonic crystals

This communication is an enquiry into the circumstances under which concurrence and phase entropy methods can give an answer to the question of quantum entanglement in the composite state when the photonic band gap is exhibited by the presence of photonic crystals in a three-level system. An analytic approach is proposed for any three-level system in the presence of photonic band gap. Using this analytic solution, we conclusively calculate the concurrence and phase entropy, focusing particularly on the entanglement phenomena. Specifically, we use concurrence as a measure of entanglement for dipole emitters situated in the thin slab region between two semi-infinite one-dimensionally periodic photonic crystals, a situation reminiscent of planar cavity laser structures. One feature of the regime considered here is that closed-form evaluation of the time evolution may be carried out in the presence of the detuning and the photonic band gap, which provides insight into the difference in the nature of the concurrence function for atom-field coupling, mode frequency and different cavity parameters. We demonstrate how fluctuations in the phase and number entropies affected by the presence of the photonic-band-gap. The outcomes are illustrated with numerical simulations applied to GaAs. Finally, we relate the obtained results to instances of any three-level system for which the entanglement cost can be calculated. Potential experimental observations in solid-state systems are discussed and found to be promising.     

耦合双Tavis-Cummings模型中的纠缠演化和转移特性

研究了由光纤模连接的两个Tavis-Cummings模型中纠缠演化和纠缠转移的特性。结果表明,初始两原子间的纠缠可转移为另两原子间的纠缠,在纠缠转移过程中,光纤模起到中间传递的作用。纠缠的转移与初始两原子间的纠缠、原子与腔场的耦合强度以及光纤模与腔场的耦合强度、原子与腔场的失谐量和腔场耗散有关。初始纠缠决定了另两原子间纠缠产生的大小;在原子与腔场的耦合强度一定的条件下,随着光纤模与腔场耦合强度的增强,纠缠转移的时间缩短,且产生的纠缠值增加;腔场耗散对纠缠演化的衰减影响是显著的,而失谐量的增加可以有效地抑制这一现象。在整个纠缠转移过程中,系统中其他任两子体系间的纠缠起到了桥梁的作用,实现了两量子纠缠态的远程传递和制备。     

Atom–field interaction under the influence of two external classical and quantum fields

In this paper we introduce a new version of the interaction between a two-level atom and an external electric field in the presence of the classical field. Under a certain condition the system is transformed to the usual Jaynes–Cummings model. The atomic inversion is investigated where the phenomenon of super-structure is reported for a large value of the classical field coupling parameter. Assuming that the field is initially in the displaced thermal state the variance and the entropy squeezing as well as the degree of entanglement are discussed. Our results show that the information of variance and entropy squeezing beside the purity can be controlled by both of the coupling parameter of the classical field and the mean photon number. In this context the variance and the entropy squeezing become more pronounced for large values of the classical field coupling, while the system shows period of disentanglement during the considered time.     

Quantum phase entropy and entanglement of a multiphoton three-level atom near the edge of a photonic band gap

Motivated by recent developments in quantum entanglement, we study the relations among concurrence and phase entropy of a three-level atom interacting with a bimodal cavity field. Analytical results are presented when the photonic band gap is exhibited by the presence of photonic crystals. The evolution of the atomic inversion with the field initially in a coherent state is examined, and different nonclassical effects in its dynamics are discussed. An extension of the notion of concurrence introduced by Wooters is used to quantify the entanglement. We conclusively calculate the phase entropy and entanglement using the Pegg-Barnett phase formalism. Evidence has been found to support the idea that phase entropy and concurrence are correlated in this particular model. One feature of the regime considered here is that closed-form evaluation of the time evolution may be carried out in the presence of the detuning and the photonic band gap, which provides insight into the difference in the nature of the concurrence function for atom-field coupling, mode frequency, and different cavity parameters. We demonstrate how fluctuations in the concurrence and phase entropy are affected by the presence of the photonic band gap. Explicit results with numerical simulations applied to GaAs are obtained.     

Dynamics of entanglement protection of two qubits using a driven laser field and detunings:Independent and common,Markovian and/or non-Markovian regimes

Preventing quantum entanglement from decoherence effect is of theoretical and practical importance in the quantum information processing technologies.In this regard,we consider the entanglement dynamics of two identical qubits where the qubits which are coupled to two independent(Markovian and/or non-Markovian) as well as a common reservoir at zero temperature are further interacted with a classical driving laser field.Then,we study the preservation of generated two-qubit entanglement in various situations using the concurrence measure.It is shown that by applying the classical driving field and so the possibility of controlling the Rabi frequency,the amount of entanglement of the two-qubit system is improved in the off-resonance condition between the qubit and the central cavity frequencies(central detuning) in both non-Markovian and Markovian reservoirs.While the central detuning has a constructive role,the detuning between the qubit and the classical field(laser detuning) affects negatively on the entanglement protection.The obtained results show that long-living entanglement in the non-Markovian reservoir is more accessible than in the Markovian reservoir.We demonstrate that,in a common reservoir non-zero stationary entanglement is achievable whenever the two-qubit system is coupled to the reservoir with appropriate values of relative coupling strengths.

Heralded entanglement between atomic ensembles: preparation, decoherence, and scaling

Heralded entanglement between collective excitations in two atomic ensembles is probabilistically generated, stored, and converted to single-photon fields. By way of the concurrence, quantitative characterizations are reported for the scaling behavior of entanglement with excitation probability and for the temporal dynamics of various correlations resulting in the decay of entanglement. A lower bound of the concurrence for the collective atomic state of 0.9+/-0.3 is inferred. The decay of entanglement as a function of storage time is also observed, and related to the local dynamics.
