Decoherence and disentanglement for two qubits in a common squeezed reservoir

Abstract

We study the relation between the sudden death and revival of the entanglement of two qubits in a common squeezed bath and the decoherence. By getting ``close'' to the decoherence free subspace, we show that the death time shows a decrease and subsequent increase until the sudden death disappears and the concurrence goes to its steady-state value asymptotically.

Coherence and entanglement in a two-qubit system

Miguel Orszag, Maritza Hernandez

Entanglement is a fundamental concept in quantum mechanics. In this review, we study various aspects of coherence and entanglement, illustrated by several examples. We relate the concepts of loss of coherence and disentanglement, via a model of two two-level atoms in different types of reservoir, including cases of both independent and common baths. Finally, we relate decoherence and disentanglement, by focusing on the sudden death of the entanglement and the dependence of the death time with the distance of our initial condition from the decoherence-free subspace. In particular, we study the sudden death of the entanglement in a two-atom system with a common reservoir.

ENTANGLEMENT DYNAMICS OF TWO QUBITS COUPLED TO SQUEEZED DISSIPATIVE ENVIRONMENTS

Chuan-Jia Shan, Tao Chen, Ji-Bing Liu +4 more

By analytically solving the Lindblad form of the master equation, we investigate entanglement dynamics of two qubits coupled via the XY interaction, where each qubit is interacting with an independent reservoir with the squeezing parameters and squeezing angles. In the weak-squeezed reservoir, we show that the entanglement sudden death and entanglement sudden birth will happen for various entangled states. Some initial product states evolve into entangled ones, initially entangled states lose completely or partially their entanglement. The effects of varying the degree of entanglement of the initial states, the spin chain system parameters and different values of the degree of squeezing on the sudden death, revival and birth times are analyzed in detail. We also see that the steady state concurrence appears in the squeezed dissipative environments, which is affected by both the system parameters and the degree of squeezing.

Quantum correlation measurements for two qubits in a common squeezed bath

M. Angeles Gallego, Miguel Orszag

"or many years the entangled systems have been associated to the quantum world, while the separable systems with the classical world. Recently quantum discord showed that some separable states posses quantum correlation even when the entanglement is zero. In this work, we compare different features of quantum discord and entanglement of formation for two qubits in a common squeezed reservoir. We relate the quantum correlations with the “distance” of our initial condition from the decoherence free subspace where the system is not affected by environment. While for some initial conditions, the entanglement presents sudden death and revival, quantum discord does not. Still, is not clear the relation between these two measurements of “quantumness”."

Disentanglement in a two-qubit system subjected to dissipation environments

Manzoor Ikram, Fuli Li, Muhammad Suhail Zubairy

We investigate the time evolution of entanglement of various entangled states of a two-qubit system exposed to either thermal or squeezed reservoirs. We show that, except for the vacuum reservoir, the sudden-death of entanglement always exists in the thermal and squeezed reservoirs. We present explicit expression for the sudden-death time of entanglement for various entangled states. We find that the sudden-death of entanglement results from the portion of the double excitation component in the initial entangled state. In this sense, the maximally entangled states of a two-qubit system that do not have the double excitation component is more robust against the quantum fluctuations of the vacuum reservoir.

Sudden death and sudden birth of entanglement in common structured reservoirs

L. Mazzola, Sabrina Maniscalco, Jyrki Piilo +2 more

We study the exact entanglement dynamics of two qubits in a common structured reservoir. We demonstrate that for certain classes of entangled states, entanglement sudden death occurs, while for certain initially factorized states, entanglement sudden birth takes place. The backaction of the non-Markovian reservoir is responsible for revivals of entanglement after sudden death has occurred, and also for periods of disentanglement following entanglement sudden birth.

Decoherence-free subspace and disentanglement dynamics for two qubits in a common non-Markovian squeezed reservoir

Md. Manirul Ali, Po‐Wen Chen, Hsi‐Sheng Goan

We study the non-Markovian entanglement dynamics of two qubits in a common squeezed bath. We see a remarkable difference between the non-Markovian entanglement dynamics and its Markovian counterpart. We show that a non-Markovian decoherence-free state is also decoherence free in the Markovian regime, but all the Markovian decoherence-free states are not necessarily decoherence free in the non-Markovian domain. We extend our calculation from a squeezed vacuum bath to a squeezed thermal bath, where we see the effect of finite bath temperatures on the entanglement dynamics.
