Physical Review A

Establishment of an entangled atom-field state in the Jaynes-Cummings model

Abstract

We use the eigenstates of the reduced density operators to give an explicit form of the entangled atom-field state in the Jaynes-Cummings model. We relate the expansion coefficients to physical quantities and discuss the effect of atomic coherence on this entangled state.

Bound entanglement in the Jaynes–Cummings model

Nicolás Quesada, Anna Sanpera

We study in detail entanglement properties of the Jaynes-Cummings model assuming a two-level atom (qubit) interacting with the first $N$ levels of an electromagnetic field mode (qudit) in a cavity. In the Jaynes-Cummings model, the number operator is the conserved quantity that allows for the exact diagonalization of the Hamiltonian and thus we study states that commute with this conserved quantity and whose structure is preserved under the Jaynes-Cummings dynamics. Contrary to the common belief, we show that there are bound entangled states that satisfy the symmetries imposed by the conservation of the number of excitations when $N>3$. Furthermore we show that \emph{the Jaynes-Cummings interaction can be used to generate bound-entanglement} between the atom and the mode.

Atom-field entanglement in two-atom Jaynes-Cummings model with intensity-dependent coupling

Eugene K. Bashkirov

An exact solution of the problem of two-atom one- and two-mode Jaynes-Cummings model with intensity-dependent coupling is presented. Asymptotic solutions for system state vectors are obtained in the approximation of large initial coherent fields. The atom-field entanglement is investigated on the basis of the reduced atomic entropy dynamics. The possibility of the system being initially in a pure disentangled state to revive into this state during the evolution process for both models is shown. Conditions and times of disentanglement are derived.

Correlated coherent states in the Jaynes-Cummings model: I

É. M. Verlan, Margarita A. Razumova

In the representation of dressed states, which diagonalizes the Hamiltonian in the Jaynes-Cummings model, the Bose operator for excitation annihilation Â, the spin operator $$\hat \Sigma \_$$ , and the corresponding Hermitian-conjugate operators are found. Using these operators, correlated coherent states were constructed and statistical properties of a field mode and an atom in these states are studied. Nonclassical field properties, such as the deviation of the probability distribution for the number of photons from the Poissonian distribution, its time dependence, and the squeezing of quadrature field components are found. For small interaction coefficients k, all these characteristics of the model vary weakly in time in the resonance case.

Population trapping in the Jaynes-Cummings model via phase coupling

J. I. Cirac, Luis Lorenzo Sánchez-Soto

An expression for the population inversion in the Jaynes-Cummings model and the most general initial state of the atom-field system is presented. States that maintain the same level of population inversion when the atom and the field are initially decoupled are found. When the atom is prepared in a coherent superposition of its states and the field is in an eigenstate of the Susskind-Glogower phase operator, for a certain choice of the relative phase between the atomic dipole and the field, coherent trapping occurs. The evolution of the squeezing of the field for these states is given, and the dependence on the phase and on the mean photon number of the field is studied.

Diagonalizing the Jaynes-Cummings Hamiltonian and Jaynes-Cummings coherent states

Stephen Mark Barnett, Bryan J. Dalton

We determine the form of the unitary transformation that diagonalizes the Jaynes-Cummings Hamiltonian. This leads to operators the action of which has a simple interpretation in terms of the dressed states, the energy eigenstates. This suggests a set of coherent states and spin coherent states based on the dressed states.
