Evolution of field entropy in a system of Schrdinger cat state light field interacting with two moving entangled atoms
Cai Zhang
The field entropy evolution of a system which is composed of two moving entangled atoms interacting with the Schrdinger cat state is studied by means of the full quantum theory.The influences of the strength of light field,the phase angle between the two coherent states,the atomic motion and the field-model structure parameter on the field entropy are discussed.The result shows that the atomic motion leads to the periodic evolution of the field entropy.When the strength of light field is small,the degree of entanglement is maximum in a system of the moving atoms interacting with an odd coherent state;it is intermediate for a system of the the moving atoms interacting with Yurke-Stoler coherent state,and it is minimum in a system of the moving atoms interacting with an even coherent state.When the strength of light field is large enough,the degrees of entanglement between the moving atoms and the three different states of the light fields become equal,and the properties of field entropy evolvement are also same.With increasing atomic speed or field-model structure parameter,the evolution period of the field entropy is shortter,the degree of entanglement between field and moving atoms is weaker.
