The dynamics of entanglement of two atoms passing through a bimodal cavity one after another are investigated by employing the concurrence. The effects of the atomic coherence of the first atom and the initial entanglement of the cavity field on the time evolution of atom-atom entanglement are analyzed. The results show that the phenomenon of sudden birth of entanglement between two atoms occurs under some conditions and the maximum for the creation of the entanglement is dependent on the initial entanglement of the cavity field. Moreover, the threshold time and maximum for the creation of the entanglement can be controlled by changing the amplitude of atom. We find that the proposal may provide us with a theoretical way to control and manipulate the entanglement.
The entanglement dynamics of two atoms initially in an entangled state system interacting with a bimodal field is investigated by making use of the concurrence and linear entropy.The effect of the initial entanglement degree of two atoms and the cavity field on the time evolution of concurrence is analyzed.The results show that the phenomenon of sudden death of the entanglement between two atoms occurs.The length of the death time interval is independent of the initial entanglement degree of two atoms.However,the death time depends on the initial entanglement degree of the cavity field.The atom and the field are entangled during all the evolution process.
