quantum statistical properties in a single trapped ion interacting with a laser field
Mahmoud Abdel‐Aty, Shigeru Furuichi, S. Nakamura
In this paper we use the quasi-mutual entropy, which does not depend on quantum channel, as a measure of information content of ionic state due to ion-laser interaction in a single trapped ion. It is found that the quasi-mutual entropy is a good measure of the entanglement degree of the ionic state at any time. We examine numerically the population inversion, the photon number distribution and degree of entanglement due to quasi-mutual entropy for a single trapped ion interacting with a laser held. During the transition from collapse to revival and vice-versa we have a minimum degree of entanglement value. Successive revival peaks show a lowering of the local maximum points indicating a dissipative irreversible change in the ionic state. We propose a generation of Bell-type states having a simple initial state preparation of a single trapped ion.
