Multipartite quantum coherence under electromagnetic vacuum fluctuation with a boundary

Zhiming Huang

We investigate the dynamics of multipartite quantum coherence (QC) for accelerated detector qubit coupled with fluctuating electromagnetic field by presence of a perfectly reflecting boundary. We firstly derive the master equation that the detector evolution obeys. We find that without boundary, QC declines under the impact of Unruh thermal effect and vacuum fluctuation. However, with a boundary, the degradation, floating and protection of QC are closely related to boundary effect, detector polarization and acceleration. The presence of boundary can effectively protect QC under the influence of vacuum fluctuation and Unruh thermal effect in some certain conditions and give us more freedom of adjusting the QC behaviors. Besides, it is shown that the QC of W state manifests better robustness than that of GHZ state under the influence of the vacuum fluctuation and acceleration.

Decohering power of thermal fluctuating electromagnetic field with a boundary

Zhiming Huang, Wei Zhang, Shenggen Zheng +3 more

In this paper, we analyze the decohering power behaviors for an atom immersed in a thermal bath of fluctuating electromagnetic field in the presence of a perfectly reflecting plane boundary. Firstly, we analytically solve the master equation that governs the system evolution. Then, we discuss the behaviors of decohering power for an atom affected by thermal fluctuating electromagnetic field. It is found that the behaviors of decohering power are dependent on the field temperature, atomic position and polarization. Decohering power fluctuates to relatively stable values with the increasing atom’s distance from the boundary, which suggests a possible way of detecting the vacuum fluctuating and boundary effect. Additional conditions on the electromagnetic field give one more freedom to manipulate the variations of decohering power. Decohering power variations can efficiently reflect the behaviors of quantum coherence affected by electromagnetic vacuum fluctuation, and it is shown that quantum coherence can be effectively enhanced with the presence of a reflecting boundary.
