Quantum coherence versus quantum discord in two coupled semiconductor double-dot molecules via a transmission line resonator

Abstract

We study the dynamics of quantum coherence and quantum correlations in two semiconductor double-dot molecules separated by a distance and indirectly coupled via a transmission line resonator. Dominant dissipation processes are considered. The numerical results show the sudden death of entanglement and the robustness of quantum discord to sudden death. Furthermore, the results indicate the dephasing processes in our model can lead in the revival and decay of coherence and discord with the absence of entanglement for certain initial states. By observing the dynamics of coherence versus discord for different initial states, we find that the similarities and differences of coherence and discord are not only related to the dependance of discord on optimizing the measurement set, but more importantly to the coherences in individual qubits which are captured by the adopted coherence measure.

Robustness of quantum discord to sudden death

T. Werlang, S. Souza, F. F. Fanchini +1 more

We calculate the dissipative dynamics of two-qubit quantum discord under Markovian environments. We analyze various dissipative channels such as dephasing, depolarizing, and generalized amplitude damping, assuming independent perturbation, in which each qubit is coupled to its own channel. Choosing initial conditions that manifest the so-called sudden death of entanglement, we compare the dynamics of entanglement with that of quantum discord. We show that in all cases where entanglement suddenly disappears, quantum discord vanishes only in the asymptotic limit, behaving similarly to individual decoherence of the qubits, even at finite temperatures. Hence, quantum discord is more robust than the entanglement against decoherence so that quantum algorithms based only on quantum discord correlations may be more robust than those based on entanglement.

The dynamics of entanglement and quantum discord of two atoms in coupled cavities

Qing-Xia Mu, Ye-Qi Zhang, Jie Song

We investigate the dynamics of quantum correlations such as entanglement and quantum discord between two noninteracting atoms, each of which is trapped inside one of two coupled cavities. We find that the cavity decay can induce both entanglement and quantum discord between the two atoms when they are initially prepared in doubly excited state. The result shows the sudden death and sudden birth of entanglement and robustness of the quantum discord to sudden death. It is also found that the doubly excited state is responsible for the sudden death of entanglement. Moreover, the sudden death of entanglement can be controlled by the intercavity hopping rate.

The uncertainty and quantum correlation of measurement in double quantum-dot systems

Long-Yu Cheng, Fei Ming, Fa Zhao +2 more

In this work, we study the entropic uncertainty and quantum discord in two double-quantum-dot (DQD) system coupled via a transmission line resonator (TLR). Explicitly, the dynamics of the systemic quantum correlation and measured uncertainty are analysed with respect to a general X-type state as the initial state. Interestingly, it is found that the different parameters, including the eigenvalue α of the coherent state, detuning amount δ , frequency ω and the coupling constant g , have subtle effects on the dynamics of the entropic uncertainty, such as the oscillation period of the uncertainty. It is clear to reveal that the quantum discord and the lower bound of the entropic uncertainty are anti-correlated when the initial state of the system is the Werner-type state, while quantum discord and the lower bound of the entropic uncertainty are not anti-correlated when the initial state of the system is the Bell-diagonal state. Thereby, we claim that the current investigation would provide an insight into the entropic uncertainty and quantum correlation in DQDs system, and are basically of importance to quantum precision measurement in practical quantum information processing.

Dissipative Dynamics of Quantum and Classical Correlations for Two-Qubit Under Two-Side and One-Side Decoherence

X. Li, Mao-Fa Fang, Chengzhi Wang +1 more

The dissipative dynamics of classical correlation(CC), quantum discord(QD) and entanglement (QE) of two qubits in two-side and one-side decoherence models are inves- tigated under Markovian environments. We find the sudden change QD as well as CC and sudden death of entanglement (ESD). The results show that QD and QE decay faster with the increasing of squeezing parameter r; the dipole-dipole interaction W under two-side decoherence leads to the oscillation of quantum discord and concurrence for initial non- eigenstates; while in all cases when entanglement suddenly disappears, quantum discord keeps nonzero under same conditions.

Entanglement versus quantum discord in two coupled double quantum dots

F. F. Fanchini, L. K. Castelano, A. O. Caldeira

We study the dynamics of quantum correlations of two coupled double quantum dots containing two excess electrons. The dissipation is included through the contact with an oscillator bath. We solve the Redfield master equation in order to determine the dynamics of the quantum discord (QD) and the entanglement of formation (EoF). Based on our results, we find that the QD is more resistant to dissipation than the EoF for such a system. We observe that this characteristic is related to whether the oscillator bath is common to both qubits or not and to the form of the interaction Hamiltonian. Moreover, our results show that the QD might be finite, even for higher temperatures in the asymptotic limit.
