Abstract

We investigate the entanglement dynamics in a quantum system consisting of three two-level atoms resonantly coupled to a single mode electromagnetic field in a cavity. An explicit analytical solution of the system is obtained and the entanglement of the system is studied with the help of the concurrence and tangle. It is also shown that the W states could be generated if the interaction time of the two-level atoms and the cavity field is chosen appropriately.

Dynamics of three qubits interacting with electromagnetic field in a lossless cavity

Ekaterina Averchenko, Eugene K. Bashkirov

We investigated the entanglement dynamics in a quantum system consisting of three two-level atoms resonantly coupled to a single mode electromagnetic field. We considered the dynamics of the system under consideration for Fock and thermal initial cavity states. An explicit analytical solution of the system has been obtained and the entanglement has been studied with the help of the two-qubit negativity. It was also shown that for both initial cavity states the sudden death of two-qubit entanglement takes place.

Entanglement sharing in the two-atom Tavis-Cummings model

Tracey E. Tessier, Ivan Deutsch, A. Delgado +1 more

Individual members of an ensemble of identical systems coupled to a common probe can become entangled with one another, even when they do not interact directly. We investigate how this type of multipartite entanglement is generated in the context of a system consisting of two two-level atoms resonantly coupled to a single mode of the electromagnetic field. The dynamical evolution is studied in terms of the entanglements in the different bipartite partitions of the system, as quantified by the I tangle. We also propose a generalization of the so-called residual tangle that quantifies the inherent three-body correlations in our tripartite system. This enables us to completely characterize the phenomenon of entanglement sharing in the case of the two-atom Tavis-Cummings model, a system of both theoretical and experimental interest.

DYNAMICS OF THE THREE-QUBITS TAVIS — CUMMINGS MODEL

Alexander R. Bagrov, Eugene K. Bashkirov

In this article, we have studied the entanglement dynamics of three identical qubits (natural or artificial two-level atoms) resonantly interacting with the one mode of the thermal field of a microwave lossless resonator via one-photon transitions. An exact solution of the quantum time Schrodinger equation is found for the total wave function of the system for the initial separable and entangled states of qubits and the Fock initial state of the resonator. On the basis of this solution, an exact solution of the quantum Liouville equation for the total time-dependent density matrix of the system in the case of a thermal field of the resonator is constructed. The exact solution for the full density matrix is used to calculate the criterion of entanglement of pairs of qubits negativity. The resultsof numerical simulation of the time dependence of the negativity of pairs of qubits showed that with an increase in the intensity of the thermal resonator field, the degree of entanglement of pairs of qubits decreases. It is also shown that In the model under consideration, for any initial states of qubits and intensities of the thermal field of the resonator, the effect of sudden death of entanglement takes place. This behavior of the entanglement parameter in the model under consideration differs from that in the two-qubit model. For two-qubit model, the effect of the sudden death of entanglement takes place only for the initial entangled states of qubits and intense thermal fields of the resonator.

LONG-LIVED ENTANGLEMENT OF THREE-ATOM IN AN OPTICAL CAVITY WITH PHASE DECOHERENCE

Jian-Song Zhang, Aixi Chen

We investigate the entanglement dynamics in a quantum system consisting of three two-level atoms resonantly coupled to a single mode cavity in the presence of phase decoherence. With the help of the dynamical algebraic method, we obtain an analytical solution of the present system. The influence of phase decoherence on the entanglement of the system is studied. We find that the entanglement between the cavity field and any atom will be destroyed completely by phase decoherence as the system evolves. However, there is long-lived entanglement (or stationary state entanglement) of arbitrary two atoms, that is, the entanglement of atoms is more robust against phase decoherence than that of the atom-field system.

PAIRWISE ENTANGLEMENT DYNAMICS OF A MULTIPARTITE SYSTEM IN THE TAVIS–CUMMINGS MODEL

Feng Han, Yun‐Jie Xia

The pairwise entanglement dynamics in a multipartite system consisting of three two-level atoms A, B, C and a single-mode cavity field a is studied via negativity. Three atoms are arranged in such a way that atoms BC are embedded in and locally interact with the cavity while atom A is located in a spatially separate place outside of the cavity. Initially, atom-pair AB is prepared in a Bell-like state while atom C in a superposition of ground and excited state, |gC〉 and |eC〉. It shall be shown that all the pairwise negativities of the total system including atoms and cavity undergo qualitatively different evolutions. The so-called entanglement sudden death is observed for atom-pair AB under certain conditions and the entanglement transfer among all the possible degrees of freedom of the whole system is also discussed.

Dynamics of atom-field entanglement: Towards strong-coupling and non-Markovian regimes

Nick Cummings, B. L. Hu

We examine the dynamics of bipartite quantum entanglement between a two-level atom and the electromagnetic field. We begin with the Jaynes-Cummings model with a single field mode and examine in detail the exact time evolution of entanglement, including cases where the atomic state is initially mixed and the atomic transition is detuned from resonance. We then explore the effects of other nearby modes by calculating the exact time evolution of entanglement in more complex systems with two, three, and five field modes. For these cases we can obtain exact solutions which include the strong-coupling regime. Finally, we consider the entanglement of a two-level atom with the infinite collection of modes present in the intracavity field of a Fabre-Perot cavity. In contrast to the usual treatment of atom-field interactions with a continuum of modes using the Born-Markov approximation, our treatment in all cases describes the full non-Markovian dynamics of the atomic subsystem under general couplings. Only when an analytic expression for the infinite mode case is desired do we need to make a weak coupling assumption which at late times approximates Markovian dynamics.
