Enhancing Quantum Discord in Cavity QED by Applying Classical Driving Field

Publisher

Abstract

We investigate the quantum discord dynamics in a cavity quantum electrodynamics system, which consists of two noninteracting two-level atoms driven by independent optical fields and classical fields, and find that the quantum discord vanishes only asymptotically although entanglement disappears suddenly during the time evolution in the absence of classical fields. It is shown that the amount of quantum discord can be increased by adjusting the classical driving fields because the increasing degree of the amount of quantum mutual information is greater than classical correlation by applying the classical driving fields. Finally, the influence of the classical driving field on the fidelity of the system is also examined.

Enhancing quantum discord in cavity QED by an added nonlinear Kerr-like medium

Qi-Liang He, Jing‐Bo Xu

We investigate the quantum discord dynamics of two noninteracting two-level atoms, each trapped in a single-mode optical cavity which is filled with a nonlinear Kerr-like medium. It is found that quantum discord vanishes only asymptotically although entanglement disappears suddenly during the time evolution. Furthermore, we explore the influence of the nonlinear Kerr-like medium on the dynamics of quantum discord, quantum mutual information, and classical correlation of two atoms. It is shown that the amount of quantum discord, quantum mutual information, and classical correlation of two atoms can be improved by adjusting the value of the Kerr medium. Finally, we also study the effect of phase dissipation on this system by making use of the Monte Carlo wavefunction method.

Controlling quantum discord dynamics in cavity QED systems by applying a classical driving field with phase decoherence

Yi Qian, Jing‐Bo Xu

We investigate a two-level atom interacting with a quantized cavity field and a classical driving field in the presence of phase decoherence and find that a stationary quantum discord can arise in the interaction of the atom and cavity field as the time turns to infinity. We also find that the stationary quantum discord can be increased by applying a classical driving field. Furthermore, we explore the quantum discord dynamics of two identical non-interacting two-level atoms independently interacting with a quantized cavity field and a classical driving field in the presence of phase decoherence. Results show that the quantum discord between two atoms is more robust than entanglement under phase decoherence and the classical driving field can help to improve the amount of quantum discord of the two atoms.

Enhancement of quantum correlations for the system of cavity QED by applying bang-bang pulses

Hang-Shi Xu, Jing‐Bo Xu

We propose a scheme of increasing quantum correlations for the cavity quantum electrodynamics system consisting of two noninteracting two-level atoms each locally interacting with its own quantized field mode by bang-bang pulses. We investigate the influence of the bang-bang pulses on the dynamics of quantum discord, entanglement, quantum mutual information and classical correlation between the two atoms. It is shown that the amount of quantum discord and entanglement of the two atoms can be improved by applying the bang-bang pulses.

Ehancement of quantum coherence and three-body entanglement by dynamical decoupling pulses

HE Qi-liang, DING Min, Song Xiao-Shu +1 more

The influence of dynamical decoupling pulses on the quantum coherence, quantum entanglement and quantum discord in cavity quantum electrodynamics system is investigated. We find that the quantum coherence and non-classical correlations (entanglement and quantum discord) between two atoms can be increased by applying a train of dynamical decoupling pulses. Furthermore, by making use of the trace distance, we also explore the reason for enhancement of quantum coherence of two atoms. It is shown that the dynamical decoupling pulses can control and accelerate the return of quantum information from other subsystems to two atoms, and reduce the flow of quantum information between two atoms and other subsystems, which leads to the increase of quantum coherence and non-classical correlations between two atoms. Finally, we investigate the three-body entanglement of the system by using state preparation fidelity. It demonstrates that the genuine three-body entanglement may emerge in the system during the evolution of time. In particular, the period of emergence of three-body entanglement can be adjusted and enhanced by dynamical decoupling pulses.

Classical correlation and quantum discord mediated by cavity in two coupled qubits

Chengzhi Wang, Chun-Xian Li, Liu-Ying Nie +1 more

We study the dynamics of classical correlation and quantum discord of two coupled two-level atoms interacting with a cavity initially in vacuum, coherent and thermal equilibrium states, respectively. The interplay between the atom–atom coupling and mean number of photons is considered. We find that, for a cavity in a vacuum state, classical correlation or quantum discord shows a sudden change in behaviour during the evolution, and evolves periodically for zero and very large qubit–qubit couplings. However, for coherent and thermal equilibrium states, the classical correlation and quantum discord present the phenomenon of collapse–revival when the qubit–qubit coupling is much greater than the mean number of photons. The period of collapse–revival becomes long as the qubit–qubit coupling and mean number of photons increase. The relationship between quantum discord and entanglement in the studied system is considered.

Sudden transition between classical and quantum decoherence in dissipative cavity QED and stationary quantum discord

Qi-Liang He, Jing‐Bo Xu, Dao‐Xin Yao +1 more

We investigate the phenomenon of sudden transition between classical and quantum decoherence in the study of quantum discord for a dissipative cavity QED system, which consists of two noninteracting two-level atoms, each trapped in a dissipative cavity. It is found that the quantum discord between the two atoms, which are prepared initially in the X-type quantum states, is not destroyed by the dissipation of the cavities for a finite time interval, and the stationary quantum discord can arise in the interaction of atoms with cavities as the time approaches infinity. The transition time is sensitive to the initial state parameter of the two atoms and the mean photon number of the coherent field. Interestingly, the quantum discord between the two atoms is completely unaffected by the dissipation of the cavities if we choose the suitable value of the ratio, which depends on the decay rate of the two cavities and the atom-field coupling constant.
