Based on the standard criteria [P. van Loock and A. Furusawa, Phys. Rev.

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.Based on the standard criteria [P. van Loock and A.

TWO-MODE ENTANGLEMENT AND SQUEEZING IN A THREE-LEVEL CASCADE ATOMIC SYSTEM

Yunxia Ping

The generation and evolution of entanglement and squeezing for the two-mode fields are discussed in a cascade three-level atomic system. Two photons of a strong external pump field induce atomic coherence between the top and bottom levels. The dynamics of this system in the presence of cavity losses is studied. It is shown that entanglement and squeezing between the two modes increase initially, then decrease and eventually disappear. The periods of them are extended with the increasing of the pump field intensity. The effects of the cavity losses on squeezing and entanglement are also discussed.The generation and evolution of entanglement and squeezing for the two-mode fields are discussed in a cascade three-level atomic system.

Preparation of steady-state entanglement via a laser-excited resonant interaction

Guangling Cheng, Aixi Chen, Jun Geng +2 more

In this paper we propose a scheme in which two-mode entanglement in a steady state is produced by using two lasers to resonantly drive a single four-level atom embedded inside a two-mode optical cavity. In this scheme, atomic coherence induced by a classical laser plays an important role in the process of preparing the entangled state. With the coupling of a strong control field, direct two-photon transition is generated and the relatively weak pump field induces the parametric interaction between two photons, which makes them entangle with each other. By numerical calculation, we find that the degree of entanglement depends strongly on the Rabi frequencies of the classical laser fields and the cavity losses.In this paper we propose a scheme in which two-mode entanglement in a steady state is produced by using two lasers to resonantly drive a single four-level atom embedded inside a two-mode optical cavity.
