Abstract

Quantum technologies able to manipulating single quantum systems, are presently developing. Among the dowries of the quantum realm, entanglement is one of the basic resources for the novel quantum revolution. Within this context, one is faced with the problem of protecting the entanglement when a system state is manipulated. In this paper, we investigate the effect of the classical driving field on the generation entanglement between two qubits interacting with a bosonic environment. We discuss the effect of the classical field on the generation of entanglement between two (different) qubits and the conditions under which it has a constructive role in protecting the initial-state entanglement from decay induced by its environment. In particular, in the case of similar qubits, we locate a stationary sub-space of the system Hilbert space, characterized by states non depending on the environment properties as well as on the classical driving-field. Thus, we are able to determine the conditions to achieve maximally entangled stationary states after a transient interaction with the environment. We show that, overall, the classical driving field has a constructive role for the entanglement protection in the strong coupling regime. Also, we illustrate that a factorable initial-state can be driven in an entangled state and, even, in an entangled steady-state after the interaction with the environment.

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

Sare Golkar, Mohammad Kazem Tavassoly

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.

Generation of steady entanglement via unilateral qubit driving in bad cavities

Zhao Jin, Shi‐Lei Su, Ai‐Dong Zhu +3 more

We propose a scheme for generating an entangled state for two atoms trapped in two separate cavities coupled to each other. The scheme is based on the competition between the unitary dynamics induced by the classical fields and the collective decays induced by the dissipation of two non-local bosonic modes. In this scheme, only one qubit is driven by external classical fields, whereas the other need not be manipulated via classical driving. This is meaningful for experimental implementation between separate nodes of a quantum network. The steady entanglement can be obtained regardless of the initial state, and the robustness of the scheme against parameter fluctuations is numerically demonstrated. We also give an analytical derivation of the stationary fidelity to enable a discussion of the validity of this regime. Furthermore, based on the dissipative entanglement preparation scheme, we construct a quantum state transfer setup with multiple nodes as a practical application.

Entanglement dynamics of moving qubits in a common environment

Sare Golkar, Mohammad Kazem Tavassoly, Alireza Nourmandipour

In this paper, we provide an analytical investigation of the entanglement dynamics of moving qubits dissipating into a common and (in general) non-Markovian environment for both weak and strong coupling regimes. We first consider the case of two moving qubits in a common environment and then generalize it to an arbitrary number of moving qubits. Our results show that when the system evolves from an initial entangled state, the amount of initial entanglement decreases and finally disappears after a finite interval of time due to the environmental effects. Moreover, we observe that the movement of qubits has a constructive role in the protection of the initial entanglement. In a sense, in this case, we observe a Zeno-like effect due to the velocity of qubits. On the other hand, we demonstrate how a stationary state of entanglement may be achieved when we consider the case in which at least one of the moving qubits is initially in the ground state. Surprisingly, we observe that when we extend the number of moving qubits with the same velocity, the stationary state of the qubits does not depend on the velocity of qubits as well as on the environmental properties. This means that, in this condition, the stationary state of entanglement depends only on the number of moving qubits.

Entanglement in a driven two-qubit system coupled to common cavity

Amit Dey

A system, comprised of a qubit pair coupled to a common cavity, is studied with the aim of establishing qubit entanglement. This study is the sequel of the paper Phys. Rev. A 111, 043705 (2025), where similar model was investigated for an initially vacuum cavity. In the present manuscript the cavity with finite initial occupancy is considered and the effect of asymmetric qubit cavity couplings is investigated. For a closed system scenario, the ratio of the qubit-cavity couplings shows a threshold beyond which no maximally-entangled qubit state is available. The threshold value is shown to depend on the excitation level of the cavity. For a driven-dissipative case steady state entanglement is shown to depend non-monotonically on the qubit drive. Intricate interplay of drive, dissipation, and coupling asymmetry is shown to be pivotal for steady-state entanglement generation.

Protection of entanglement between two qubits trapped in coupled cavities via cavity architecture

Abdul Basit, Hamad Ali, Fazal Badshah +3 more

Abstract Harnessing and protecting quantum entanglement from the detrimental effects of local environments is essential for quantum information and computation. With this aim, we present a simple scheme to preserve and control the quantum entanglement. The scheme consists of two coupled single-mode lossy cavities, each containing a qubit, which are in turn connected simultaneously with another two lossy cavities. We examine the protection of entanglement for initially maximal entangled state in both weak and strong coupling regimes. It is found that one can enhance the survival time of the entanglement expeditiously by adjusting the coupling strengths between the relevant cavities and increasing the number of auxiliary cavities. In addition, if the cavities without qubits do not lose photons then after certain damping oscillations the entanglement between two qubits becomes stable. Interestingly, the magnitude of the stable quantum entanglement depends not only on the hopping strengths but also on the number of contributing auxiliary cavities.
