Generation and stabilization of maximal entanglement between two atomic qubits coupled to a decaying resonator

Abstract

An efficient scheme is proposed for generating and stabilizing a Bell state for two qubits coupled to a decaying resonator. The scheme requires neither specifically designed three-level systems nor additional drives applied to the resonator. We show that the fidelity of the steady state with respect to the singlet state is insensitive to the drive amplitudes and resonator decay rate. The scheme is generic, applicable to different coupled qubit–resonator systems.

Preparation of two-qubit steady entanglement through driving a single qubit

Li-Tuo Shen, Rongxin Chen, Zhen‐Biao Yang +2 more

Inspired by a recent paper [J. Phys. B 47, 055502 (2014)], we propose a simplified scheme to generate and stabilize a Bell state of two qubits coupled to a resonator. In the scheme only one qubit is needed to be driven by external classical fields, and the entanglement dynamics is independent of the phases of these fields and insensitive to their amplitude fluctuations. This is a distinct advantage as compared with the previous ones that require each qubit to be addressed by well-controlled classical fields. Numerical simulation shows that the steady singlet state with high fidelity can be obtained with currently available techniques in circuit quantum electrodynamics.

Engineering steady-state entanglement via dissipation in coupled cavities

Zhao Jin, Shi‐Lei Su, Ai‐Dong Zhu +2 more

Abstract We present a scheme for the dissipative preparation of an entangled steady state between two atomic qubits separately trapped in the coupled cavities. The combination of coherent driving fields and dissipative processes will drive the system into a steady state. By choosing different frequency of classical laser field, the target steady state can be generated in different ways. In our scheme, the atomic spontaneous emission and the cavity decay can be used as a prerequisite. The numerical simulation shows that the maximally entangled state with high fidelity and purity can be produced regardless of the initial state. The fidelity is insensitive to the fluctuation of the system parameters.

Generating maximal entanglement between non-interacting atoms by collective decay and symmetry breaking

Xiaoting Wang, S. G. Schirmer

A simple scheme is presented for achieving effectively maximal pure-state entanglement between non-interacting atoms through purely collective decay and controlled symmetry breaking. The scheme requires no measurements or feedback or even knowledge of the initial states of the atoms. It relies on breaking the symmetry of the system Hamiltonian to ensure the existence of a unique attractive steady state and minimal control to achieve almost perfect overlap of this steady state with the maximally entangled singlet state. We demonstrate how our scheme can be implemented for two qubits encoded in hyperfine levels of atoms such as Rubidium in a lossy microwave cavity using only small magnetic field gradient. Error analysis suggests considerable robustness with regard to many imperfections including atomic decay, asymmetric atom-cavity coupling and frequency offsets.

Efficient steady-state-entanglement generation in strongly driven coupled qubits

Ana Laura Gramajo, Daniel Domı́nguez, María José Sánchez

We report on a mechanism to optimize the generation of steady-state entanglement in a system of coupled qubits driven by microwave fields. Due to the interplay between Landau-Zener-St\"uckelberg-Majorana pumping involving three levels and a subsequent fast relaxation channel, which is activated by tuning the qubits-reservoir couplings, a maximally entangled state can be populated. This mechanism does not require the fine tuning of multiphoton resonances but depends on the sign of the qubit-qubit coupling. In particular, we find that by a proper design of the system parameters and the driving protocol, the two-qubit steady-state concurrence can attain values close to 1 in a wide range of driving amplitudes. Our results may be useful to gain further insight into entanglement control and manipulation in dissipative quantum systems exposed to strong driving.

Efficient Entanglement Generation of Two Superconducting Qubits in a Circuit QED

Run‐Ying Yan, Zhi‐Bo Feng

Abstract The optimal generation of entangled states is of significance to information processing and state engineering. Here, an efficient scheme is proposed for creating entangled states between two superconducting qubits in a circuit quantum electrodynamics (QED). The two qubits that resonantly interact with a common cavity mode of transmission‐line resonator (TLR) can be effectively coupled by the data bus of the microwave resonator. By the invariant‐based shortcuts to adiabaticity (STA), two types of maximally entangled states can be controllably induced only by adjusting the Rabi drivings. Based on the resonant drivings with constant rates, the shortcut strategy is capable of implementing faster operations when compared with the dispersive approach. The fidelities are highly robust against the decoherence effects and the instabilities of Rabi rates. Thus the proposal could offer a potential route toward the entanglement generations in an optimized manner.

Robust generation of high-fidelity entangled states for multiple atoms

Lin Li-Hua

A scheme is presented for generating entangled states of multiple atoms in a cavity. In the scheme the atoms simultaneously interact with a cavity mode, with the first atom driven by two classical fields and the other atoms driven by a classical field. Our scheme is valid even if the cavity decay rate is larger than the effective coupling strength, which is important for experiment. The generation of entangled states is conditional on the detection of a photon decaying from the cavity and thus the fidelity of the entangled state is insensitive to the detection inefficiency. Furthermore, the scheme can be applied to the case with any number of atoms in principle.
