The thermal entanglement in a spin-1 Heisenberg XXZ chain

Ni Hui-Ying, Jianxing Fang, Xiaoyan Zhou, Shuiheng Gu

Published Oct 26, 2007• 0 citations

Abstract

In this paper, the entanglement in a spin-1 Heisenberg XXZ chain with uniform and nonuniform external magnetic field is investigated in the terms of the measure of entanglement called 'negativity'. The effects of the external magnetic field, the anisotropy parameter and the temperature on the negativity are discussed respectively. It can be seen that the entanglement in this spin chain for any temperature is symmetric with respect to zero magnetic field. We calculate the partially transposed density matrix and give qualitatively results at different temperatures. In order to show the results clearly, the behavior of negativity is presented for five different cases. It can be found that the temperature and the external magnetic field can effect the feature of the thermal entanglement significantly. In addition, under certain condition, the negativity may be enhanced under a nonuniform magnetic field.

Entanglement in a two-spin (1/2, 3/2) mixed-spin Heisenberg XXZ chain with an inhomogeneous external magnetic field

Using the concept of negativity, we investigate the thermal entanglement of a two-spin (1/2, 3/2) mixed-spin Heisenberg XXZ chain with an inhomogeneous external magnetic field. We obtain the analytical results of entanglement of this model. For the case of uniform magnetic field, we find that the critical temperature increases with the increase of the anisotropy parameter k , and for the same couplings, the critical temperature is higher than the results of the spin-1/2 XXZ chain and (1/2, 1) mixed-spin XXZ chain. Evidence of the quantum phase transition is found, and by adjusting the inhomogeneous magnetic parameter b , one is able to obtain more entanglement at higher temperature.

Thermal Entanglement in the Spin- S Heisenberg XYZ Model

Hu Li, Da-Chuang Li, Xianping Wang +2 more

The thermal entanglement in the spin-S Heisenberg XYZ model is studied in detail by using the entanglement measure of negativity. The effects of spin on the thermal entanglement, the threshold temperature, the critical uniform external magnetic field, the nonuniform external magnetic field and the entanglement extremum are discussed, respectively. It is shown that with increasing spin, the entanglement will increase, and then decrease slowly. In addition, we find that entanglement will approach a constant N c with the increase of DM interaction, the constant increases with the increase of spin, and both the threshold temperature T c and critical uniform external magnetic field B c will increase with the increasing spin. Thus high-spin system can inhibit the influence of the external environment better.

Thermal entanglement in two-qutrit spin-1 anisotropic Heisenberg model with inhomogeneous magnetic field

Erhan Albayrak

The thermal entanglement of a two-qutrit spin-1 anisotropic Heisenberg XXZ chain in an inhomogeneous magnetic field is studied in detail. The effects of the external magnetic field ( B ), a parameter b which controls the inhomogeneity of B , and the bilinear interaction parameters J x = J y ≠ J z on the thermal variation of the negativity are studied in detail. It is found that negativity N decreases when the values of magnetic field, inhomogeneity b and temperature are increasing. In addition, N remains at higher temperatures for higher values of J z and lower values of B and b .

Effects of anisotropy and external magnetic field on the thermal entanglement in a (1/2,1) mixed-spin Heisenberg model

Jin‐Liang Guo, X. L. Huang, He‐Shan Song

In contrast to the spin-half Heisenberg model, we investigate the effects of anisotropy and external magnetic field on thermal entanglement in a (1/2,1) mixed-spin Heisenberg model. By using the concept of negativity, we find the critical temperature T c and critical magnetic field B c of mixed-spin are much higher than that of spin-half, and this phenomenon is more evident with increasing anisotropy coefficient Δ. Contrary to the spin-half, we also observe that the nonuniform field can enhance the entanglement of mixed-spin to a great extent.

Thermal entanglement in a mixed-spin Heisenberg XXZ model under a nonuniform external magnetic field

Jia Hong

The thermal entanglement in (1/2,1) mixed-spin Heisenberg XXZ model is investigated under an external nonuniform magnetic field. In the uniform magnetic field system,the critical magnetic field Bc and critical temperature Tc are increased by increasing the anisotropic parameter k. The degree of magnetic field b plays an important role in improving the critical temperature and enlarging the region of entan-glement in the nonuniform magnetic field system.
