Physical Review A

Dissipation-induced stationary entanglement in dipole-dipole interacting atomic samples

Abstract

The dynamics of two two-level dipole-dipole interacting atoms coupled to a common electro-magnetic bath and closely located inside a lossy cavity, is reported. Initially injecting only one excitation in the two-atom cavity system, loss mechanisms asymptotically drive the matter sample toward a stationary maximally entangled state. The role played by the closeness of the two atoms, with respect to such a cooperative behavior, is carefully discussed. Stationary radiation trapping effects are found and transparently interpreted.

Loss induced long-lived entanglement in a multiatom sample

Stefania Nicolosi, Anna Napoli, ANTONINO MESSINA

The exact dynamics of $N$ two-level atoms coupled to a common electromagnetic bath and closely located inside a lossy cavity is reported. Stationary radiation trapping effects are found and very transparently interpreted in the context of our approach. We prove that initially injecting one excitation only in the $N$ atoms cavity system, loss mechanisms asymptotically drive the matter sample toward a long-lived collective subradiant Dicke state. The role played by the closeness of the $N$ atoms with respect to such a cooperative behaviour is brought to light and carefully discussed.

The entangleable properties of two atoms inside the dissipative cavity

Zhang Li-Hui

We have investigated the entangleable properties of two two-level atoms inside the dissipative cavity coupled to a single-mode radiation field under the big detuning,and discussed the influence of the initial state of the two atoms,the cavitity decay constant and the mean photon number on the entanglement degree.It have shown that if the two atoms are initially in the exicited or the ground states,they will be separate always;if the two atoms are initially in the coherent superposition of the excited and the ground states,the influence of cavity dissipation on the entanglement degree will vanish gradually with the time evolution,but the dipole-dipole interaction can enhance the entanglement degree.

Multipartite stationary entanglement generation in the presence of dipole-dipole interaction in an optical cavity

Azar Vafafard, Alireza Nourmandipour, Roberto Franzosi

Engineering a stationary entanglement between atoms or ions placed at small distances is a challenging problem in quantum information science. In this paper, the stationary and dynamics of entanglement in a system of dipole-coupled qubits interacting with a single-mode optical cavity in the strong coupling regime are theoretically investigated. We find that the entanglement in the steady state can be induced and tuned in nonresonance cases by considering the dipole-dipole interaction (DDI) between the qubits. We also point out that the novel measure used in this study can quantify the net multiqubit entanglement in the system. By increasing the DDI intensity, the behavior of the system depends on the number of qubits. Interestingly, with only two qubits, the amounts of steady-state entanglement enhances as the DDI intensity increases. For a system with more than two qubits, we find that DDI in the weak range of intensity plays a constructive role in the entanglement between qubits. However, it could destroy the stationary entanglement as the interaction between qubits intensifies. The entanglement of a system consisting of more than two qubits tends to disappear for an ensemble of qubits with smaller interatomic distances that lead to stronger dipolar interaction between nonadjacent qubits. Finally, we study the atomic population transfer as well as the transmitted spectrum.

Entanglement between two qubits one of which interacts with a thermal field

Eugene K. Bashkirov, Michail S. Mastyugin

In this paper, we have investigated the entanglement between two dipole coupled two-level atoms. The model, in which only one atom is trapped in an lossless cavity and interacts with single-mode thermal field, and the other one can be spatially moved freely outside the cavity has been carried out. We have considered the effect of the atomic coherence on the entanglement behavior. We have shown that a thermal field might cause high entanglement between the atoms both for coherent and incoherent initial atomic states only for small values of the cavity mean photon number. In the considered model the atoms would get entangled even when both atoms are initially in the excited state. We have also derived that the degree of entanglement is weakly dependent on the strength of dipole-dipole interaction for coherent initial states.
