Time evolution and transfer of entanglement between an isolated atom and a Jaynes–Cummings atom

Abstract

We investigate the entanglement dynamics of two space-separated atoms, one of them in Jaynes–Cummings cavity and the other isolated completely. We show analytically that initial entanglement has an interesting subsequent time evolution and transfer, including the so-called sudden death effect. A little inconsistency of concurrence and negativity is indicated qualitatively to measure the two-qubit states.

Sudden death of entanglement of two Jaynes–Cummings atoms

Muhammed Yönaç, Ting Yu, Joseph H. Eberly

We investigate entanglement dynamics of two isolated atoms, each in its own Jaynes–Cummings cavity. We show analytically that initial entanglement has an interesting subsequent time evolution, including the so-called sudden death effect.

Entanglement evolution of two remote and non-identical Jaynes–Cummings atoms

Stanley Chan, M. D. Reid, Z. Ficek

A detailed treatment of the entanglement dynamics of two distant but non-identical systems is presented. We study the entanglement evolution of two remote atoms interacting independently with a cavity field, as in the double Jaynes–Cummings model. The four-qubit pairwise concurrences are studied, allowing for asymmetric atom–cavity couplings and off-resonant interactions. Counter to intuition, imperfect matching can prove advantageous to entanglement creation and evolution. For two types of initial entanglement, corresponding to spin-correlated and anti-correlated Bell states Φ and Ψ, a full, periodic and directed transfer of entanglement into a specific qubit pair is possible, for resonant interactions, depending on the choice of relative couplings. Furthermore, entanglement transfer and sudden death (ESD) can be prevented using off-resonant interactions, although for some initial states, detunings will trigger an otherwise frozen entanglement, to allow a full entanglement transfer.

Effects of cavity–cavity interaction on the entanglement dynamics of a generalized double Jaynes–Cummings model

Mahasweta Pandit, Sreetama Das, Sudipto Singha Roy +2 more

Abstract We consider a generalized double Jaynes–Cummings model consisting of two isolated two-level atoms, each contained in a lossless cavity that interact with each other through a controlled photon-hopping mechanism. We analytically show that at low values of such a mediated cavity–cavity interaction, the temporal evolution of entanglement between the atoms, under the effects of cavity perturbation, exhibits the well-known phenomenon of entanglement sudden death (ESD). Interestingly, for moderately large interaction values, a complete preclusion of ESD is achieved, irrespective of its value in the initial atomic state. Our results provide a model to sustain entanglement between two atomic qubits, under the adverse effect of cavity induced perturbation, by introducing a non-intrusive inter-cavity photon exchange that can be physically realized through cavity-QED setups in contemporary experiments.

A NEW FEATURE ON THE SUDDEN DEATH OF ENTANGLEMENT

Xue‐Qun Yan

Based on the exactly analytic solution obtained of the intensity-dependent Jaynes–Cummings model for a certain class of initial entangled mixed states, we explore the time evolution of the entanglement between two atoms, initially non-locally correlated and separately interacting with two distinct cavities. The results show that entanglement sudden death is dependent on the different initial states of atoms, and the length of the time interval for the zero entanglement is invariant for a certain class of initial mixed states.

Entanglement dynamics of a double two-photon Jaynes–Cummings model with Kerr-like medium

Ouyang Xi-Cheng, Mao-Fa Fang, Guodong Kang +2 more

In this paper, the entanglement dynamics of a double two-photon Jaynes–Cummings model with Kerr-like medium is investigated. It is shown that initial entanglement has an interesting subsequent time evolution, including the so-called entanglement sudden death effect. It is also shown analytically that the Kerr-like medium can repress entanglement sudden death and enhance the degree of atom-atom entanglement. A more interesting fact is that the Kerr effect is more obvious when each of the two cavities with have the Kerr-like medium than only one of them with the Kerr-like medium.

Entanglement dynamics of W-like states within the framework of triple Jaynes–Cummings model

Zhong‐Xiao Man, Yun‐Jie Xia, Nguyen Ba An

Entanglement dynamics of two atomic W-like states is studied within the framework of a triple Jaynes–Cummings model. It is shown that the two states, though initially being equivalent under simple local operations and thus having the same amounts of pairwise entanglements, undergo qualitatively different evolutions. Namely, one of them may suffer from the so-called entanglement sudden death depending on the parameters, while the other one does not for whatever parameters.
