Abstract

The spin-dependent scattering process in a system of a topological insulator and a quantum dot is studied. The unitary scattering process is viewed as a gate transformation applied to an initial state of two electrons. Due to the randomness imposed through the impurities and alloying-induced effects of band parameters, the formalism of the random unitary gates is implemented. For quantifying entanglement in the system, we explored concurrence and ensemble-averaged R\'enyi entropy. We found that an applied external magnetic field leads to long-range entanglement on distances much larger than the confinement length. We showed that topological features of itinerant electrons sustain the formation of robust long-distance entanglement, which survives even in the presence of strong disorder.

Fermionic entanglement in altermagnets

Marco Kulig, Tomasz Masłowski, K. A. Kouzakov +6 more

Altermagnetism became very popular because of unique features, namely coupling between magnetic properties and momentum of itinerant electrons. The particular model of the altermagnetic system of our interest has already been studied in recent publications in a different context: . Here, we study the scattering process of an itinerant electron from the altermagnetic material on the electron localized in a GaAs quantum dot doped on the altermagnetic material. We found a spatially inhomogeneous distribution of quantum entanglement in the postscattering state. An interesting observation is the spatially anisotropic distribution of concurrence which depends on the values of the altermagnetic spin-orbit interaction constant. We also studied Rényi entropy and the effect of disorder in the system leading to randomness in the spin-orbit constant. Our main finding is that, due to the unique properties of an altermagnetic system, tuning the applied external magnetic field allows tailoring of the desired entangled state. Thus the scattering process, in essence, mimics the Hadamard-CNOT gate transformation, converting the initial disentangled state into the entangled state of Bell's state. In particular, we achieved more than 70 % fidelity between the postscattering and Bell's states.

Influences of spin–orbit interaction on quantum speed limit and entanglement of spin qubits in coupled quantum dots

M. Bagheri Harouni

Quantum speed limit and entanglement of a two-spin Heisenberg XYZ system in an inhomogeneous external magnetic field are investigated. The physical system studied is the excess electron spin in two adjacent quantum dots. The influences of magnetic field inhomogeneity as well as spin–orbit coupling are studied. Moreover, the spin interaction with surrounding magnetic environment is investigated as a non-Markovian process. The spin–orbit interaction provides two important features: the formation of entanglement when two qubits are initially in a separated state and the degradation and rebirth of the entanglement.

Topological signatures in the entanglement of a topological insulator-quantum dot hybrid

L. A. Castro-Enríquez, A. Martín-Ruiz, M. Cambiaso

In the present work, we consider a hybrid plexciton composed of a semiconductor quantum dot interacting with a topological insulator nanoparticle subject to an external magnetic field. Due to the topological magnetoelectricity of the nanoparticle, long-living plasmonic surface modes are induced, which are quantized and coupled with the quantum dot through its polarization operator. We consider the hybrid as an open quantum system, such that environment effects are accounted by the master equation in the Born-Markov approximation. Then, we apply the Peres' positive partial transpose criterion to quantify the entanglement of the hybrid. We show that this entanglement is a direct signature of the [Formula: see text] invariant of topological insulators.

Impurity Scattering Induced Entanglement of Ballistic Electrons

A. T. Costa, Sougato Bose

We show how entanglement between two conduction electrons is generated in the presence of a localized magnetic impurity embedded in an otherwise ballistic conductor of special geometry. This process is a generalization of beam-splitter mediated entanglement generation schemes with a localized spin placed at the site of the beam splitter. Our entangling scheme is unconditional and robust to randomness of the initial state of the impurity. The entangled state generated manifests itself in noise reduction of spin-dependent currents.

Entanglement of two-electron spin states in a double quantum dot

Vladislav G. Bagrov, Dmitri M Gitman, Aleksandr D. Levin +1 more

Recently, an implementation of a universal set of one- and two-quantum-bit gates for quantum computation using spin states of coupled single-electron quantum dots was proposed. It was demonstrated that it is possible to execute a coherent control of a quantum system based on two-electron spin states in a double quantum dot, allowing state preparation, coherent manipulation, and projective readout. This possibility is based on rapid electrical control of the spin exchange interaction. These results motivated us to develop a formal theoretical study of the corresponding model of two coupled spins placed in a magnetic field and subjected to a time-dependent mutual Heisenberg interaction. Using possible exact solutions of the corresponding quantum problem, we study entangling of different separable initial states in this model. It is demonstrated that the entanglement due to a time-dependent Heisenberg interaction is dominating in comparison with the entanglement due to the action of an external magnetic field.

Entanglement entropy of random fractional quantum Hall systems

B A Friedman, G C Levine, D Luna

The entanglement entropy of the ν=1/3 and ν=5/2 quantum Hall states in the presence of short-range random disorder has been calculated using direct diagonalization. A microscopic model of electron–electron interaction is used and spin-polarized electrons are confined to a single Landau level and interact with long-range Coulomb interaction. In the case of very weak disorder, the values of topological entanglement entropy are roughly consistent with the expected theoretical results. By considering a broad range of disorder strengths, entanglement entropy was studied in an effort to detect quantum phase transitions. In particular, there is a signature of the transition as the function of the disorder strength for the ν=5/2 state. Prospects of using the density matrix renormalization group to compute the entanglement entropy for larger system sizes are discussed.
