Entanglement sudden death and sudden birth of an atom coupled to a bimodal lossy cavity

Abstract

We propose another method for realizing entanglement sudden death and sudden birth using a single atom interacting with a bimodal cavity field in a dissipative environment. By suitably choosing the system's parameters and precisely controlling the dynamics, we find a novel connection between maximum entanglement and mixed state parameters. We discuss the intricate relationship between the entanglement dynamics and the dissipative environment.

Sudden birth and sudden death of entanglement

Z. Ficek, Tana sacute Ryszard

We discuss a simple model for creation of entanglement in a system composed of two two-level atoms interacting with a common environment. The role of the environment in entangling and disentangling of the atoms is explored. We demonstrate how the spontaneous decay of an initial excitation of the system can create a transient entanglement between the atoms. The opposite situation is also discussed where a spontaneous disentanglement of initially entangled atoms may exhibit some unusual features such as entanglement sudden birth, the phenomenon of entanglement sudden death and revival of entanglement. We provide a discussion of these unusual phenomena in terms of the density matrix elements of the system and show the connection of the phenomena with the threshold behaviour of the concurrence.

Sudden birth and control of entanglement between two atoms successively passing through a bimodal cavity

Liao Qing-Hong, Liu Ye

The dynamics of entanglement of two atoms passing through a bimodal cavity one after another are investigated by employing the concurrence. The effects of the atomic coherence of the first atom and the initial entanglement of the cavity field on the time evolution of atom-atom entanglement are analyzed. The results show that the phenomenon of sudden birth of entanglement between two atoms occurs under some conditions and the maximum for the creation of the entanglement is dependent on the initial entanglement of the cavity field. Moreover, the threshold time and maximum for the creation of the entanglement can be controlled by changing the amplitude of atom. We find that the proposal may provide us with a theoretical way to control and manipulate the entanglement.

Control of entanglement sudden death by Kerr medium

Qiang Zheng, Xiaoping Zhang, Zhongzhou Ren

The entanglement dynamics of system, where atoms A and B interact with single mode cavity fields a and b respectively, is studied. The interaction between atom A and cavity a may be described by using the typical Jaynes–Cummings model, while that between the atom B and cavity b filled with a Kerr medium is of a two-photon process. For a certain initial atom entanglement state, there is an entanglement sudden death effect between the two atoms. The Kerr medium in the cavity b can effectively prevent the undesirable entanglement sudden death from occurring. Also, from the viewpoint of the population dynamics, we discuss why the Kerr medium can do so.

Study on sudden death of the entanglement between an isolated atom and an atom inside a bimodal cavity

Liao Qing-Hong

The entanglement dynamics of two atoms initially in an entangled state system interacting with a bimodal field is investigated by making use of the concurrence and linear entropy.The effect of the initial entanglement degree of two atoms and the cavity field on the time evolution of concurrence is analyzed.The results show that the phenomenon of sudden death of the entanglement between two atoms occurs.The length of the death time interval is independent of the initial entanglement degree of two atoms.However,the death time depends on the initial entanglement degree of the cavity field.The atom and the field are entangled during all the evolution process.

A STUDY ON THE SUDDEN DEATH AND SUDDEN BIRTH OF ENTANGLEMENT IN AN OPEN SYSTEM

YING-JIE ZHANG, Yun‐Jie Xia

In this paper, we consider the entanglement dynamics of two cavities interacting with independent reservoirs. When the cavity entanglement suddenly disappeared, the reservoir entanglement suddenly and necessarily appears. We study the effect of purity of initial entangled state of two cavities on the entanglement evolution, and acquire that the purity of initial entangled state of two cavities can control the apparition time of the entanglement sudden death and the entanglement sudden birth. Also, we find that the conditions on the apparition of the entanglement sudden death and the entanglement sudden birth can be generalized when the initial entangled state of cavities is not pure, which is a complement to the result in the paper [Phys. Rev. Lett.101 (2008) 080503] for the pure case.

Sudden Death and Sudden Birth of Entanglement Between Two Atoms Successively Passing Fock State Field

Gao De-ying

The dynamics of entanglement of two initially separate atoms passing through a cavity one after another is studied by the negativity method.The effects of the two atom initial states and the field in the fock state on the time evolution of atom-atom entanglement are examined.The phenomenon of sudden birth and death of entanglement occurs when the photon number in the fock state is not zero and the phenomenon will change with the two atom initial states and the photon number.
