Abstract

The atomic entanglement dynamics is studied in the double Jaynes-Cummings model composed of two coupled cavities.Effect of the cavity-cavity coupling constant A and the atomic initial states on entanglement sudden death(ESD) and entanglement sudden birth(ESB) is analysed.By studying the atomic concurrence,it was shown that when the atomic initial states are the first kind Bell-like states,ESD and ESB doesn't appear,coupling of the cavities can increase the atomic entanglement and entanglement occurs even the initial states are disentangled.When the atomic initial states are the second kind Bell-like states,the time intervals between the ESD and ESB,and whether the ESD occurs or not are controlled by the coupling constant A.The atomic entanglement can't be produced by the coupling between the cavities when the atomic initial states are disentangled and in the second kind Bell-like states.

Controlling entanglement sudden birth and sudden death of two-atom X-states in Tavis-Cummings model

Shan Chuan-Jia, Jibing Liu, Tao Chen +3 more

In this paper, we investigate the entanglement dynamics of two entangled two-level atoms with initial X state and dipole-dipole coupling intensity in Tavis-Cummings model. The interesting phenomena of entanglement sudden death as well as sudden birth appear during the evolution process. We analyze in detail the effect of purity of initially entangled state of two atoms, the dipole-dipole coupling intensity between two atoms, and the field in the Fock state on the apparition time of entanglement sudden death and entanglement sudden birth. Furthermore, the conditions for the conversion of entanglement sudden death and entanglement sudden birth can be generalized when the initial entangled state is not pure. The results show that the above system parameters affect the concurrence, entanglement sudden birth and sudden death remarkably, the dipole-dipole coupling intensity affects amplitudes of the concurrence oscillation and leads time interval of the ESD to decrease. With the increasing of the purity, the time of entanglement sudden death and entanglement sudden birth will decrease, it is also notable that invariant and stable entanglement, which can be controlled by different initial states of the atoms, occurs for particular initial X state.

Entanglement of two two-level atoms trapped in coupled cavities with a Kerr medium

Qin Wu, Zhi‐Ming Zhang

In this paper, the entanglement dynamics of two two-level atoms trapped in coupled cavities with a Kerr medium is investigated. We find that the phenomena of entanglement sudden death (ESD) and entanglement sudden birth (ESB) appear during the evolution process. The influences of initial atomic states, Kerr medium, and cavity—cavity hopping rate on the atom—atom entanglement are discussed. The results obtained by the numerical method show that the atom—atom entanglement is strengthened and even prevented from ESD with increasing cavity—cavity hopping rate and Kerr nonlinearity.

The entanglement between two isolated atoms in the double mode–mode competition model

Qin Wu, Mao-Fa Fang, Cai Jian-Wu +1 more

Extending the double Jaynes–Cummings model to a more complicated case where the mode–mode competition is considered, we investigate the entanglement character of two isolated atoms by means of concurrence, and discuss the dependence of atom–atom entanglement on the different initial state and the relative coupling strength between the atom and the corresponding cavity field. The results show that the amplitude and the period of the atom–atom entanglement evolution can be controlled by the choice of initial state and relative coupling strength, respectively. We find that the phenomenon of entanglement sudden death (ESD) is sensitive to the initial conditions. The length of the time interval for zero entanglement depends not only on the initial degree of entanglement between two atoms but also on the relative coupling strength of atom–field interaction. The ESD effect can be weakened by enhancing the mode–mode competition between the three- and single-photon processes.

Control of entanglement sudden death by Kerr medium

Qiang Zheng, Xiaoping Zhang, Zhongzhou Ren

The entanglement dynamics of system, where atoms A and B interact with single mode cavity fields a and b respectively, is studied. The interaction between atom A and cavity a may be described by using the typical Jaynes–Cummings model, while that between the atom B and cavity b filled with a Kerr medium is of a two-photon process. For a certain initial atom entanglement state, there is an entanglement sudden death effect between the two atoms. The Kerr medium in the cavity b can effectively prevent the undesirable entanglement sudden death from occurring. Also, from the viewpoint of the population dynamics, we discuss why the Kerr medium can do so.

Entanglement dynamics of a double two-photon Jaynes–Cummings model with Kerr-like medium

Ouyang Xi-Cheng, Mao-Fa Fang, Guodong Kang +2 more

In this paper, the entanglement dynamics of a double two-photon Jaynes–Cummings model with Kerr-like medium is investigated. It is shown that initial entanglement has an interesting subsequent time evolution, including the so-called entanglement sudden death effect. It is also shown analytically that the Kerr-like medium can repress entanglement sudden death and enhance the degree of atom-atom entanglement. A more interesting fact is that the Kerr effect is more obvious when each of the two cavities with have the Kerr-like medium than only one of them with the Kerr-like medium.

The Entanglement Dynamics of Two Atoms in a Double Two-Photon Jaynes-Cummings Model

Qinghong Liao, Wenjie Nie, Nanrun Zhou +2 more

By employing the concurrence, we investigate the dynamics of entanglement between two atoms in a double two-photon Jaynes-Cummings model when the cavity field is previously in a maximally entangled state. The influence of the atomic coherence on the time evolution of the atom-atom entanglement is examined. It is shown that the phenomenon of the sudden birth of entanglement occurs, and the atomic coherence decreases the degree of the atom-atom entanglement. Moreover, it is found that a maximally entangled two-atom state can be generated.
