Three-mode entanglement via tunneling-induced interference in a coupled triple-semiconductor quantum-well structure

Abstract

A simple scheme is proposed to achieve three-mode continuous-variable (CV) entanglement in a coupled triple-semiconductor quantum-well (TSQW) structure via tunneling-induced interference. In the present scheme, the TSQW structure is trapped into a triply resonant cavity, and the tunneling-induced interference effects considered here are the key to realizing entanglement. By numerically simulating the dynamics of the system, we show that the strength of tunneling-induced interference can effectively influence the period of entanglement, and the generation of entanglement does not depend intensively on the initial condition of the cavity field in our scheme. As a result, the present research provides an efficient approach to achieve three-mode CV entanglement in a semiconductor nanostructure, which may have an impact on the progress of solid-state quantum-information theory.

Interference-induced enhancement of field entanglement in a microwave-driven V-type single-atom laser

Wen‐Xing Yang, Aixi Chen, Ting-Ting Zha +2 more

Abstract We demonstrate the generation of two-mode continuous-variable (CV) entanglement in a V-type three-level atom trapped in a doubly resonant cavity using a microwave field driving a hyperfine transition between two upper excited states. By numerically simulating the dynamics of this system, our results show that the CV entanglement with large mean number of photons can be generated even in presence of the atomic relaxation and cavity losses. More interestingly, it is found that the intensity and period of entanglement can be enhanced significantly with the increasing of the atomic relaxation due to the existence of the perfect spontaneously generated interference between two atomic decay channels. Moreover, we also show that the entanglement can be controlled efficiently by tuning the intensity of spontaneously generated interference and the detuning of the cavity field.

Entanglement via atomic coherence induced by two strong classical fields

Xin‐You Lü, Pei Huang, Wen‐Xing Yang +1 more

Based on the standard criteria [P. van Loock and A. Furusawa, Phys. Rev. A 67, 052315 (2003)], we propose a scheme to achieve the fully tripartite continuous-variable (CV) entanglement in a $Y$-type atomic system driven by two strong classical fields. By numerically simulating the dynamics of system, we show that the generation of entanglement does not depend intensively on the initial condition of cavity field and the time for which the cavity modes remain entangled can be prolonged via enhancing the intensities of classical fields in our scheme. Moreover, our numerical results also show that a tripartite entanglement amplifier can be realized in the present scheme. The present research provides an efficient approach to achieve fully tripartite CV entangled state even when the three entangled modes have different frequencies and initial states, which may be useful for the progress of quantum information networks with many nodes.

Efficient creation of continuous-variable entanglement for two atomic ensembles in coupled cavities

Jie Song, Xiudong Sun, Yan Xia +1 more

We investigate the generation of continuous-variable (CV) entanglement of two separated atomic ensembles in coupled cavities. We find that under certain conditions, the entanglement between the two ensembles is gained periodically when the three-level $\ensuremath{\Lambda}$-type atoms in each ensemble dispersively interact with one classical field and one cavity mode. Generation of the entangled state does not completely depend on the cavity photon number. In addition, the effect of decoherence can be suppressed effectively.

Continuous-Variable Entanglement in Tunnel-Coupled Double Quantum Wells

Xin‐You Lü, Jibing Liu, Xiangying Hao +2 more

This paper investigates the generation and evolution of continuous-variable entanglement in an asymmetric coupled-quantum well (CQW) system. Our numerical results show that this CQW system can be regarded as a source of macroscopic entangled light over a wide range of initial states of the cavity field. This investigation can be used for achieving the macroscopic entangled light in the CQW solid-state medium, which is much more practical than that in an atomic medium because of its flexible design and the controllable interference strength.

Tripartite entanglement of microwave radiation via nonlinear parametric interactions enhanced by quantum interference in superconducting quantum circuits

Guangling Cheng, Aixi Chen, Wenxue Zhong

We present an efficient scheme for generating the tripartite continuous variable entanglement of microwave radiation in a Δ-type three-level artificial atom placed in a transmission line resonator, simultaneously driven resonantly by two strong electromagnetic fields. We show that it is possible to obtain the full tripartite entanglement with the different frequencies in the presence of atom and cavity decays. In our scheme, interestingly, the nonlinear process of simultaneous parametric downconversion and upconversion interactions between microwave modes can be achieved via quantum interference induced by two classical fields and can be greatly enhanced under the condition of resonant driving of the two classical fields. Such a nonlinear interaction is responsible for the generation of the strong tripartite entanglement among three microwave modes. In practice, the system considered here could offer an alternative for implementing the scalable information processing in the solid-state system.

Holographic Laser as a Source of Continuous Variable Entanglement

Yang Bin, Xin‐You Lü, Wu Meng-Xi

We study the generation and evolution of continuous-variable entanglement in a holographic laser. The two-level atomic medium is trapped in a ring cavity, and couples with two counter-propagating modes. By simulating the dynamics of the system, our numerical results show that the two-mode continuous variable (CV) entanglement can be realized in the present system even in the presence of cavity loss. This investigation provides a research clue for realizing CV entanglement in a two-level atomic medium, which is simpler than the previous works.
