Dynamics of nonclassical properties of two- and four-mode Bose–Einstein condensates

Abstract

A two-mode Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC) prepared in a Fock state initially evolves due to the coupling of modes. The time evolution of nonclassical properties exhibits that inter-mode entanglement, single-mode and higher order antibunching are present. A four-mode BEC is considered with the initial minimum-energy Bloch states, and the nonclassical behaviour is confirmed.

Single-mode and intermodal higher-order nonclassicalities in two-mode Bose-Einstein condensates

Sandip Kumar Giri, Biswajit Sen, C. H. Raymond Ooi +1 more

An analytic operator solution of a generalized quantum mechanical Hamiltonian of two-mode Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) is obtained for short-time dynamics and the same is used to investigate the nonclassical properties of the modes present in the system. Nonclassical characters are observed by means of single-mode and intermodal quadrature squeezing, single-mode and intermodal sub-Poissonian boson statistics, and intermodal entanglement. In addition to the traditionally studied lower-order nonclassical properties, signatures of higher-order nonclassical characters of two-mode BEC systems are also obtained by investigating the possibility of higher-order antibunching and higher-order entanglement. The mutual relation among the observed nonclassicalities and their evolution (variation) with time and the ratio of the single boson tunneling amplitude ($\ensuremath{\varepsilon}$) and the coupling constant for the intramodal interaction ($\ensuremath{\kappa}$) are also reported.

Higher-order nonclassical properties of atom-molecule Bose-Einstein Condensate

Sandip Kumar Giri, Kishore Thapliyal, Biswajit Sen +1 more

The transient quantum statistical properties of the atoms and molecules in an atom-molecule BEC system are investigated by obtaining a third-order perturbative solution of the Heisenberg's equations of motion corresponding to the Hamiltonian of an atom-molecule BEC system where two atoms can collide to form a molecule. Time dependent quantities like two boson correlation, entanglement, squeezing, antibunching, etc., are computed and their properties are compared. It is established that atom-molecule BEC system is highly nonclassical as lower-order and higher-order squeezing and antibunching in pure (atomic and molecular) modes, squeezing and antibunching in compound mode and lower-order and higher-order entanglement in compound mode can be observed in the atom-molecule BEC system. Exact numerical results are also reported and analytic results obtained using the perturbative technique are shown to coincide with the exact numerical results.

Time-evolution of entanglement and Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger states in two-mode Bose-Einstein condensates

Wen Yin, J.-Q. Liang, Q.-W. Yan +1 more

In this Brief Report we investigate the time evolution of entanglement in two-mode Bose-Einstein condensates (BEC's) with various parameters of the scattering lengths of interatoms collisions, Josephson coupling strength, and initial states. The degree of entanglement increases by strengthening the tunnel coupling and keeping the balance of the collision interaction. In the latter stage we show that the two-mode BEC's can be used for preparing the Greenberger-Home-Zeilinger state.

Nonclassical properties and entanglement generation in an optical cavity containing two atomic Bose–Einstein condensates

Ren-Fei Zheng, Qi-Hui Jiang, Lu Zhou +1 more

We consider the model of a weakly driven optical cavity containing two clouds of atomic Bose–Einstein condensates (BECs). Nonclassical photon correlations and correlations between the two atomic BECs are investigated under different cavity conditions including strong atom-field coupling and bad cavity regime. We show that the nonlinear interatom collisional interactions in BEC leads to a significant loss of cavity light coherence. Various types of nonclassical properties are investigated such as sub-Poissonian statistics, antibunching and entanglement. We show that the entanglement can be generated between BECs and the cavity field. The time evolution of entanglement is also numerically studied.

Lower- and higher-order nonclassicality in a Bose-condensed optomechanical-like system and a Fabry-Perot cavity with one movable mirror: squeezing, antibunching and entanglement

Nasir Alam, Kishore Thapliyal, Anirban Pathak +3 more

Various lower- and higher-order nonclassical properties have been studied for two physical systems- (i) an optomechanical system composed of a Fabry-Perot cavity with one nonlinearly oscillating mirror and (ii) an optomechanical-like system formed using a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) trapped inside an optical cavity. The investigation is performed using a perturbation method that leads to closed form analytic expressions for the time evolution of the relevant bosonic operators. In the first system, it is observed that the radiation pressure coupling leads to the emergence of lower- and higher-order squeezing, antibunching, entanglement and intermodal squeezing. The effects of the coherent interaction of a nonlinear oscillating mirror with the cavity mode are studied, and it is observed that the optomechanical system studied here becomes more nonclassical (entangled) when the coupling strength is increased. It is also observed that the possibility of observing entanglement depends on the phase of the movable mirror. The Hamiltonian of the trapped BEC system is obtained as a special case of the Hamiltonian of the first system, and the existence of various nonclassicality in the trapped BEC system has been established, and variations of those with various physical parameters have been reported with an aim to understand the underlying physical process that leads to and controls the nonclassicality.

Mode dynamics of Bose–Einstein condensates in a single-well potential

Yao-Jun Ying, Lizhen 李真 Sun 孙, Haibin 海彬 Li 李

We investigate dynamics of Bose–Einstein condensates (BECs) in a single-well potential using the mode-coupling method. Symmetry is shown to play a key role in the coupling between modes. A proper mode-coupling theory of the dynamics of BECs in a single-well potential should include at least four modes. In this context, the ideal BEC system can be decomposed into two independent subsystems when the coupling is caused by external potential perturbation and is linear. The mode dynamics of non-ideal BECs with interaction shows rich behavior. The combination of nonlinear coupling and initial condition leads to the different regimes of mode dynamics, from regularity to non-regularity, which also indicates a change of the dependence of coupling on the symmetry of modes.
