THERMAL ENTANGLEMENT FOR DIFFERENT INHOMOGENEOUS MAGNETIC FIELDS IN THE ANISOTROPIC HEISENBERG XY MODEL
Da-Chuang Li, Zhuo‐Liang Cao
Abstract
Thermal entanglement is investigated in a two-qubit Heisenberg XY model with different inhomogeneous magnetic fields. It is found that the entanglement is dependent on the magnetic field, and the magnetic fields along different axes have different control efficiencies of entanglement. In addition, no matter in antiferromagnetic model or in ferromagnetic model, according to the relation between spin–spin coupling coefficients, the more efficient control parameters of entanglement can be obtained by adjusting the direction of external magnetic fields.
