Thermal Entanglement of a Three-Qubit Heisenberg Chain with a Nonuniform Magnetic Field

Abstract

The thermal entanglement of a three-qubit Heisenberg chain under a nonuniform magnetic field is studied. It is very interesting to note that the next nearest neighbor entanglement (NNNE) could be larger than the nearest neighbor entanglement (NNE). We analyze the ground state entanglement, and give the conditions that NNNE is larger than NNE near zero temperature. Our results also show that the nonuniform field could induce the entanglement and improve the threshold temperature at certain parameter region.

Entanglement properties of a two-qubit, mixed-spin, Heisenberg chain under a nonuniform magnetic field

Guo-Hui Yang, Ling Zhou

We investigate the entanglement property of a two-qubit, mixed-spin, Heisenberg system under a nonuniform magnetic field. We show that increasing b can improve the threshold temperature, and can also make the entanglement enhanced. It is very interesting to note that the joining of the nonuniform magnetic field b can not only induce the entanglement for the ferromagnetic case, but can also make the entanglement symmetrical in terms of J for a larger value of b , while the uniform field B cannot do this. We also analyze the ground-state entanglement features in detail.

Pairwise thermal entanglement in a three-qubit Heisenberg XX model with a nonuniform magnetic field and Dzyaloshinski—Moriya interaction

Ren Jin-Zhong, Shao Xiao-Qiang, Zhang Shou +1 more

Pairwise thermal entanglement in a three-qubit Heisenberg XX model is investigated when a nonuniform magnetic field and the Dzyaloshinski—Moriya interaction are included. We find that the nonuniform magnetic field and Dzyaloshinski—Moriya interaction are the more efficient control parameters for the increase of entanglement and critical temperature. For both the nearest neighbour sites and the next nearest neighbour sites, the magnetic field can induce entanglement to a certain extent and the Dzyaloshinski—Moriya interaction can enhance the entanglement to a stable value. The steady value of the nearest neighbour site entanglement C 12 is larger than the next nearest neighbour site entanglement C 13 . An interesting phenomenon is that the entanglement curve of C 12 appears a peak value when the Dzyaloshinski—Moriya interaction is considered in a nonuniform magnetic field.

Entanglement of the Heisenberg XXX spin chain under uniform and nonuniform magnetic fields

D. Tian

We study the nearest and next nearest neighbor entanglement of the Heisenberg XXX spin chain (antiferromagnet) under uniform and nonuniform magnetic fields up to 10 spins.At zero absolute temperature,we show that there are staircase structures in concurrence C,this may be used to construct a quantum entanglement amplifier or switch.For finite temperature,we show that when a nonuniform magnetic field Bi=(-1)iB is introduced,the nearest neighbor entanglement may be enhanced at certain regions of B and T,while the next nearest neighbor entanglement completely disappeared.The critical temperature Tcn at which the nearest neighbor entanglement vanishes is also improved by introducing the nonuniform magnetic field Bi=(-1)iB,Tcn increases with the increase of B,which means one can get entanglement at any temperature by adjusting the magnetic field strength.

Entanglement in an anisotropic spin-1 Heisenberg chain

Zhu Yan, Zhu Shi-Qun, Hao Xiang

The entanglement in an anisotropic spin-1 Heisenberg chain with a uniform magnetic field is investigated. The ground-state entanglement will undergo two different kinds of transitions when the anisotropy Δ and the amplitude of the magnetic field B are varied. The thermal entanglement of the nearest neighbour always declines when B increases no matter what the value of the anisotropy is. It is very interesting to note that the entanglement of the next-nearest neighbour can increase to a maximum at a certain magnetic field. Regardless of the boundary condition, the nearest-neighbour entanglement always decreases and approaches to a constant value when the size of the system is very large. The constant value of open boundary condition is much larger than that of periodic boundary condition.

Thermal entanglement properties of N-qubit quantum Heisenberg chain in a two-component magnetic field

Ümit Akıncı, Erol Vatansever, Yusuf Yüksel

We elucidate the finite temperature entanglement properties of $N=9$ qubits Heisenberg $XX$ and $XXZ$ models under the presence of a polarized magnetic field in $xz$ plane by means of concurrence concept. We perform a systematic analysis for a wide range of the system parameters. Our results suggest that the global phase regions which separate the entangled and non-entangled regions sensitively depend upon the spin-spin interaction term of the $z-$ component of two neighboring spins $J_{z}/J_{x}$, temperature as well as polarized magnetic field components. Thereby, we think that polarized magnetic field can be used a control parameter to determine the amount of thermal entanglement between pair of qubits for different temperatures and spin-spin interaction terms. Moreover, it has been found that the nearest-neighbor pair of qubits does not point out a re-entrant type entanglement character when one only deals with the nearest-neighbor pair of qubits. However, as one considers next-nearest neighbor pair of qubits, it is possible to see the evidences of re-entrant type entanglement behaviors.
