Abstract

We study analytically the generation of maximally entangled states (MESs) formed by a two-component Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC) trapped in an adiabatically driven single potential well. Under the condition of the linear interaction controlled by a driven field being much stronger than the effective nonlinear interaction between the components, MESs, as some particular cases of superpositions of spin coherent states (SSCS), may emerge periodically along with not only time evolution but also the equidifferent change of the linear coupling strength at a particular time.

Entanglement dynamics in two-component Bose–Einstein condensates

Hao Ya-Jiang, Liang Jiu-Qing

Based on the exact solution of the time-dependent Schrödinger equation for two-species Bose–Einstein condensates (BECs) consisting of two hyperfine states of the atoms coupled by a tuned adiabatic and time-varying Raman coupling, we obtain analytically the entanglement dynamics of the system with various initial states, particularly the SU(2) coherent state, for both of cases with and without the nonlinear interactions. It is shown that the effect of nonlinear interaction on the entanglement appears only in a longer time period depending on the BEC parameters.

Entanglement and entropy production in coupled single-mode Bose-Einstein condensates

Izabella Lovas, József Fortágh, Eugene Demler +1 more

We investigate the time evolution of the entanglement entropy of coupled single-mode Bose-Einstein condensates in a double-well potential at $T=0$ temperature by combining numerical results with analytical approximations. We find that the coherent oscillations of the condensates result in entropy oscillations on the top of a linear entropy generation at short time scales. Due to dephasing, the entropy eventually saturates to a stationary value, in spite of the lack of equilibration. We show that this long-time limit of the entropy reflects the semiclassical dynamics of the system, revealing the self-trapping phase transition of the condensates at large interaction strength by a sudden entropy jump. We compare the stationary limit of the entropy to the prediction of a classical microcanonical ensemble and find surprisingly good agreement in spite of the nonequilibrium state of the system. Our predictions should be experimentally observable on a Bose-Einstein condensate in a double-well potential or on a two-component condensate with interstate coupling.

Quantum squeezing and entanglement in a two-mode Bose-Einstein condensate with time-dependent Josephson-like coupling

Seok Jin Choi, N. P. Bigelow

Dynamical evolution of quantum mechanical squeezing and entanglement in a two-mode Bose-Einstein condensate (TBEC) with an adiabatic, time-varying Raman coupling is studied by finding analytical expressions for these quantities. In particular, we study the entanglement between the atoms in the condensate as well as that between the two modes. The nature of the enhanced quantum correlations in TBEC is clarified by considering squeezing and entanglement both with and without the nonlinear interaction turned on; it is found that entanglement approaching maximal value can be achieved with the nonlinear interactions present. Somewhat counterintuitively, greater squeezing is found in the absence of nonlinear interactions. This is due to the collapses and revivals of the TBEC quantum state induced by the nonlinear interactions. In addition, results involving the self-trapping phase state of TBEC indicate potential for creating a dynamically stable, macroscopic entangled quantum state which is relatively robust with respect to atom number fluctuations.

Coherently controlled entanglement generation in a binary Bose-Einstein condensate

Niklas Teichmann, Christoph Weiß

Considering a two-component Bose-Einstein condensate in a double-well potential, a method to generate a Bell state consisting of two spatially separated condensates is suggested. For repulsive interactions, the required tunnelling control is achieved numerically by varying the amplitude of a sinusoidal potential difference between the wells. Both numerical and analytical calculations reveal the emergence of a highly entangled mesoscopic state.

Theory of an Output Coupler for Bose-Einstein Condensed Atoms

R. J. Ballagh, Keith R. Burnett, Thomas Scott

The evolution of a two component Bose-Einstein condensate, consisting of atoms in two distinct hyperfine states, is modeled using a generalization of the Gross-Pitaevskii equation. Coherent coupling of the components by a microwave or RF field gives rise to a range of spatiotemporal behaviors, controlled by the strength and detuning of the applied field. From an initial trapped single component state, a second component can be generated which may escape from the trapping region or remain trapped within the first component. The initiating mechanism is identified and characterized.

Generation of Bell states in two-component Bose–Einstein condensates

Zhang Guo-Feng, Yin Wen, Liang Jiu-Qing +1 more

We examine analytically the generation of Bell state in Bose condensates of two interacting species trapped in a double well configuration. The density of probability for finding the entangled Bell state is given. The effect of the tunnelling rate and the interspecies interaction strength on the generation of Bell state is discussed. We find that the oscillation amplitude of the density of probability for finding the entangled Bell state becomes greater as the tunnelling rate Ω increases and the self-interaction strength of the component A(B) has no effect on it.
