Abstract

We investigate the quantum discord dynamics of two effective two-level atoms independently interacting with two quantized field modes through a Raman interaction in the presence of phase decoherence. The influence of the phase decoherence and detuning on the evolution of the quantum discord and entanglement between two atoms is discussed. It is found that the quantum discord is more robust than the entanglement under the phase decoherence, and the amount of discord and entanglement between two atoms can be increased by adjusting the detuning.

Controlling quantum discord dynamics in cavity QED systems by applying a classical driving field with phase decoherence

Yi Qian, Jing‐Bo Xu

We investigate a two-level atom interacting with a quantized cavity field and a classical driving field in the presence of phase decoherence and find that a stationary quantum discord can arise in the interaction of the atom and cavity field as the time turns to infinity. We also find that the stationary quantum discord can be increased by applying a classical driving field. Furthermore, we explore the quantum discord dynamics of two identical non-interacting two-level atoms independently interacting with a quantized cavity field and a classical driving field in the presence of phase decoherence. Results show that the quantum discord between two atoms is more robust than entanglement under phase decoherence and the classical driving field can help to improve the amount of quantum discord of the two atoms.

Enhancing quantum discord in cavity QED by an added nonlinear Kerr-like medium

Qi-Liang He, Jing‐Bo Xu

We investigate the quantum discord dynamics of two noninteracting two-level atoms, each trapped in a single-mode optical cavity which is filled with a nonlinear Kerr-like medium. It is found that quantum discord vanishes only asymptotically although entanglement disappears suddenly during the time evolution. Furthermore, we explore the influence of the nonlinear Kerr-like medium on the dynamics of quantum discord, quantum mutual information, and classical correlation of two atoms. It is shown that the amount of quantum discord, quantum mutual information, and classical correlation of two atoms can be improved by adjusting the value of the Kerr medium. Finally, we also study the effect of phase dissipation on this system by making use of the Monte Carlo wavefunction method.

Enhancing Quantum Discord in Cavity QED by Applying Classical Driving Field

Yi Qian, Jing‐Bo Xu

We investigate the quantum discord dynamics in a cavity quantum electrodynamics system, which consists of two noninteracting two-level atoms driven by independent optical fields and classical fields, and find that the quantum discord vanishes only asymptotically although entanglement disappears suddenly during the time evolution in the absence of classical fields. It is shown that the amount of quantum discord can be increased by adjusting the classical driving fields because the increasing degree of the amount of quantum mutual information is greater than classical correlation by applying the classical driving fields. Finally, the influence of the classical driving field on the fidelity of the system is also examined.

Quantum correlation dynamics of two two-level atoms in common environment

He Zhi, Li Long-Wu

By exactly solving the model of two two-level atoms with dipole-dipole interaction, interacting with a common environment, quantum entanglement and quantum discord of two atoms are obtained. In this paper, the influences of the non-Markovian effect of environment, the dipole-dipole interaction of two atoms and the detunings of the central frequency of the cavity and the transition frequency of the atoms on quantum entanglement and quantum discord dynamics of two atoms are comprehensively considered. The study shows that in the non-Markovian regime and the resonant case, if two atoms are initially in the entangled state, the damping of quantum entanglement and quantum discord will be remarkably suppressed. More specially, in the off-resonant case, the disentanglement time of the two atoms can be considerably prolonged. On the other hand, if two atoms are initially in the separable state, the dipole-dipole interaction can enhance the amplitude of oscillations of quantum entanglement and quantum discord in a short time, but the steady values of quantum entanglement and quantum discord cannot be changed by the dipole-dipole interaction in the long-time limit. Finally, the different influences of the dipole-dipole interaction on quantum entanglement and quantum discord also are discussed.

Quantum discord between two moving two-level atoms

Yao-Hua Hu, Mao-Fa Fang

Abstract Considering a double JC model, this paper investigates the quantum discord dynamics of two isolated moving two-level atoms each interacting with a single-mode thermal cavity field, and studies the effect of the atomic motion and the field-mode structure on quantumdiscord. The results show that, on the one hand the quantum discord evolves periodically with time and the periods are affected by the atomic motion and the field-mode structure; on the other hand, the quantum discord still can capture the quantum correlation between the two atoms when the entanglement is zero. It is interesting to note that the quantum discord can be effectively preserved by controlling the field-mode structure parameter

Quantum discord in the system of atoms interacting with coupled cavities

Rui-Qi Li, LU Dao-ming

The geometrical quantum discord (GQD) is an effective measure of quantum correlation in quantum systems. We have studied GQD dynamics of the system comprising two two-level atoms resonantly interacting with two coupled cavities. GQD between atoms and that between cavities are investigated. The influences of coupling constant between cavities and initial entanglement between atoms on GQD are discussed. Results obtained using a numerical method show that GQD between atoms is strengthened, and GQD between cavities is weakened with increasing initial entanglement between atoms. On the other hand, the evolution regularity of GQD between atoms and that between cavities are all strengthened with increasing coupling constant between cavities.
