Abstract

Abstract At present, the sources of entangled photons have a low rate of photon generation. This limitation is a key component of quantum informatics for the realization of such functions as linear quantum computation and quantum teleportation. In this paper, we propose a method for high intensity generation of entangled photons in a two‐mode electromagnetic field. On the basis of exact solutions of the Schrödinger equation, when electrons interact in an atom with a strong two‐mode electromagnetic field, it is shown that there may be large quantum entanglement between photons. The quantum entanglement is analyzed on the basis of the Schmidt parameter. It is shown that the Schmidt parameter can reach very high values depending on the choice of characteristics of the two‐mode fields. We find the Wigner function for the considered case. Violation of Bell's inequalities for continuous variables is demonstrated.

Quantum entanglement of a harmonic oscillator with an electromagnetic field

Dmitry N. Makarov

At present, there are many methods for obtaining quantum entanglement of particles with an electromagnetic field. Most methods have a low probability of quantum entanglement and not an exact theoretical apparatus based on an approximate solution of the Schrodinger equation. There is a need for new methods for obtaining quantum-entangled particles and mathematically accurate studies of such methods. In this paper, a quantum harmonic oscillator (for example, an electron in a magnetic field) interacting with a quantized electromagnetic field is considered. Based on the exact solution of the Schrodinger equation for this system, it is shown that for certain parameters there can be a large quantum entanglement between the electron and the electromagnetic field. Quantum entanglement is analyzed on the basis of a mathematically exact expression for the Schmidt modes and the Von Neumann entropy.

Quantum entanglement of photons on free electrons

Dmitry N. Makarov

The quantum entanglement of photons is one of the interesting and important manifestations of the quantum world, which is already being used in quantum technologies. The study of new methods of quantum entanglement of photons is one of the promising areas of quantum optics. In this work, it is shown that photons, in a two-mode electromagnetic field, can be quantum entangled when they interact with free electrons. It is shown that the quantum entanglement of such photons can be very large and such photons can be a good source of high quantum entanglement. In addition, it is shown that free electrons can be a beam splitter for a two-mode electromagnetic field.

The coherent generation of the photon pairs by a stream of excited atoms passing through the cavity

N. A. Enaki, Viorel Ciornea

The problem of the coherent generation of the entanglement photon pairs by an ensemble of the two-level atoms passing through the cavity is studied. The dependence of the generation rate of the photon pairs as a function of the coherent states of the atomic stream is established. Considering that the flying time of the atoms passing through the cavity is less than decay time, a new method of the elimination of atomic variables from the system is proposed. The master equation for multimode cavity electromagnetic field is obtained. Using the Fokker–Planck equations, the steady state solution of this master equation is studied. The quantum properties of the multimode electromagnetic field are analyzed, using the non-diagonal P representation for su (1,1) symmetry.

DYNAMICS OF TWO-LEVEL ATOMS INTERACTING WITH THERMAL FIELD FOR ENTANGLED INITIAL ATOMIC STATES

Eugene K. Bashkirov, Alevtina Solovieva, Michail S. Mastyugin

In this paper the entanglement dynamics for system of two two-level atoms interacting with a mode of thermal electromagnetic field in lossless cavity has been investigated. Initial atomic states are the entangled Bell type states. Using the full set of eigenvectors of the Hamiltonian of the considered model we have derived the exact solution for the density matrix for the whole system. On its basis the reduced atomic density matrix and Peres - Horodetcki parameter have been calculated. Calculating of entanglement parameter shows the possibility of high degree of entanglement even for large intensity of thermal field. Thus there is a possibility of maintenance and control over the degree of entanglement.

Electromagnetically Induced Entanglement

Xihua Yang, Min Xiao

Quantum entanglement provides an essential resource for quantum computation, quantum communication, and quantum network. How to conveniently and efficiently produce entanglement between bright light beams presents a challenging task to build realistic quantum information processing networks. Here, we present an efficient and convenient way to realize a novel quantum phenomenon, named electromagnetically induced entanglement, in the conventional Λ-type three-level atomic system driven by a strong pump field and a relatively weak probe field. Nearly perfect entanglement between the two fields can be achieved with a low coherence decay rate between the two lower levels, high pump-field intensity, and large optical depth of the atomic ensemble. The physical origin is quantum coherence between the lower doublet produced by the pump and probe fields, similar to the well-known electromagnetically induced transparency. This method would greatly facilitate the generation of nondegenerate narrow-band continuous-variable entanglement between bright light beams by using only coherent laser fields, and may find potential and broad applications in realistic quantum information processing.

Entanglement of two-qubit photon beam by magnetic field

Aleksandr D. Levin, Dmitri M Gitman, Ricardo A. Castro

We study the possibility of affecting the entanglement in a two-qubit system consisting of two photons with different fixed frequencies but with two arbitrary linear polarizations, moving in the same direction, with the help of an applied external magnetic field. The interaction between the magnetic field and the photons in our model is achieved through intermediate electrons that interact both with the photons and the magnetic field. The possibility of an exact theoretical analysis of this scheme is based on well-known exact solutions that describe the interaction of an electron subjected to an external magnetic field (or a medium of electrons not interacting with each other) with a quantized field of two photons. We adapt these exact solutions to the case under consideration. Using explicit wave functions for the resulting electromagnetic field, we calculate the entanglement measures (the information and the Schmidt ones) of the photon beam as functions of the applied magnetic field and the parameters of the electron medium.
