Entanglement and thermal entanglement in two-photon Jaynes-Cummings model

Abstract
We investigate atom-cavity entanglement in the time evolution and the thermal entanglement in two-photon Jaynes-Cummings model by means of concurrence. The result shows that atom-cavity entangled state appears with periodicity, which decreases with the increasing coupling strength between the atom and cavity; In finite temperature, the concurrence decreases with the increasing of temperature, thermal entanglement vanishes in this Jaynes-Cummings model when system temperature reaches the critical temperature, which is proportional to the coupling strength of atom-cavity. For typical experimental data, the critical temperature is on the order of 10~(-5) K.
