Nonequilibrium thermal entanglement for simple spin chains

Ilya Sinayskiy, N. Pumulo, Francesco Petruccione

The dynamics of a chain of two and three spins coupled at both ends to separate bosonic baths at different temperatures is studied. An exact analytical solution of the quantum master equation in the Born-Markov approximation for the reduced density matrix of the chain is constructed. It is shown that for long times the reduced density matrix converges to the nonequilibrium steady-state. Dynamical and steady state properties of the concurrence between the first and the last spin are studied.

Dynamics of nonequilibrium thermal entanglement

Ilya Sinayskiy, Francesco Petruccione, Daniel Klaus Burgarth

The dynamics of a simple spin chain (two spins) coupled to bosonic baths at different temperatures is studied. The analytical solution for the reduced density matrix of the system is found. The dynamics and temperature dependence of spin-spin entanglement is analyzed. It is shown that the system converges to a steady state. If the energy levels of the two spins are different, the steady-state concurrence assumes its maximum at unequal bath temperatures. It is found that a difference in local energy levels can make the steady-state entanglement more stable against high temperatures.

Entanglement in stationary nonequilibrium states at high energies

Marko Žnidarič

In recent years it has been found that quantum systems can posses entanglement in equilibrium thermal states provided temperature is low enough. In the present work we explore a possibility of having entanglement in nonequilibrium stationary states. We show analytically that, in a simple one-dimensional spin chain, there is entanglement even at the highest attainable energies; that is, starting from an equilibrium state at infinite temperature, a sufficiently strong driving can induce entanglement, even in the thermodynamic limit. We also show that dissipative dephasing, on the other hand, destroys entanglement.
