Thermal entanglement of the Ising–Heisenberg diamond chain with Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya interaction

Abstract

We investigate the thermal entanglement in a spin-1/2 Ising–Heisenberg diamond chain, in which the vertical Heisenberg spin dimers alternate with single Ising spins. Due to the fact that the Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya (DM) interaction contributes to unusual and interesting magnetic properties in actual materials, and moreover it plays a significant role in the degree of the entanglement of the Heisenberg quantum spin systems, we focus on the effects of different DM interactions, including D z and D x , on the thermal entanglement of the Heisenberg spin dimer. The concurrence, as a measure of spin dimer entanglement, is calculated for different values of exchange interactions, DM interaction, external magnetic field, and temperature. It is found that the critical temperature and the critical magnetic field corresponding to the vanishing of entanglement increase with DM interaction, and the entanglement revival region gets larger by increasing DM interaction, thus DM interaction favors the formation of the thermal entanglement. It is observed that different DM interaction parameters ( D z and D x ) have remarkably different influences on the entanglement. Different from the case D z , there is the non-monotonic variation of the concurrence with temperature in the case D x , and additionally the DM interaction D x can induce the entanglement near zero temperature in the case that the antiferromagnetic Ising-type interaction constant is larger than the antiferromagnetic Heisenberg interaction constant. It is also shown that for the same value of DM interaction the critical magnetic field of the case D x is larger than that of the case D z .

Thermal quantum correlations of a spin-1/2 Ising–Heisenberg diamond chain with Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya interaction

Yidan Zheng, Zhu Mao, Bin Zhou

We investigate the properties of thermal quantum correlations in an infinite spin-1/2 Ising–Heisenberg diamond chain with Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya (DM) interaction. The thermal quantum discord (TQD) and the thermal entanglement (TE) are discussed as two kinds of important methods to measure the quantum correlation, respectively. It is found that DM interaction plays an important role in the thermal quantum correlations of the system. It can enhance the thermal quantum correlations by increasing DM interaction. Furthermore, the thermal quantum correlations can be promoted by tuning the external magnetic field and the Heisenberg coupling parameter in the antiferromagnetic system. It is shown that the behaviors of TQD differ from those of TE. TQD is more robust against decoherence than TE. For the measurement of TQD, the "regrowth" phenomenon occurs in the ferromagnetic system. We also find that the anisotropy favors the thermal quantum correlations of the system with weak DM interaction.

Thermal entanglement of the spin-1/2 diamond chain

Levon Chakhmakhchyan, N.S. Ananikian, L. Ananikyan +1 more

The entanglement thermal (equilibrium) properties in spin-1/2 Ising-Heisenberg model on an ideal diamond chain is analyzed. Due to the classical character of Ising-type exchange interactions between two neighboring antiferromagnetic Heisenberg dimers, the calculation of quantum entanglement (by tracing out Ising spins) can be performed for each of the dimers separately. The concurrence, as a measure of entanglement is obtained and different regimes depending on the values of exchange interactions are revealed. The effects of the magnetic field are incorporated and critical temperatures corresponding to the vanishing or arising of entanglement are considered.

Thermal Entanglement in Two-Qutrit Heisenberg XX Chain with Different Dzyaloshinskii—Moriya Interaction and Nonuniform Magnetic Field

Meng Qin, Yanbiao Li, Zhong Bai +2 more

The effects of the different Dzyaloshinskii—Moriya (DM) interaction on thermal entanglement of a two-qutrit Heisenberg XX spin chain in a nonuniform magnetic field are investigated. Our results imply that the x-component DM interaction plays a central role in enhancing quantum entanglement and it has a higher critical temperature than the z-component DM interaction. The entanglement can be tunable controlled by changing the multiple of the magnetic fields B 1 and B 2 . Also we found that different DM interaction are competitive to each other in some conditions.

EFFECT OF DIFFERENT DZYALOSHINSKII–MORIYA INTERACTIONS ON ENTANGLEMENT IN THE HEISENBERG XYZ CHAIN

Da-Chuang Li, Zhuo‐Liang Cao

In this paper, we study the thermal entanglement in a two-qubit Heisenberg XYZ system with different Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya (DM) couplings. We show that different DM coupling parameters have different influences on the entanglement and the critical temperature. In addition, we find that when Ji (i-component spin coupling interaction) is the largest spin coupling coefficient, Di (i-component DM interaction) is the most efficient DM control parameter, which can be obtained by adjusting the direction of DM interaction.

Thermal entanglement in the four-qubit Heisenberg XXZ model with the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction

Zhang Ying-Li, Bin Zhou

In this paper, we study the property of thermal entanglement in four-qubit Heisenberg model, where Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) interaction is considered, and investigate the pairwise concurrences of two nearest-neighbor qubits and two next-neighbor qubits to study this entanglement property. The result shows that for the two-next-neighbor-qubit case, there exists pairwise concurrence neigher in ferromagnetic model nor in antiferromagnetic model; but for the two-nearest-neighbor-qubits case, the DM interaction and the parameter of the anisotropy exchange coupling have a significant influence on the pairwise entanglement and critical temperature Tc. Moreover, the pairwise concurrence will decrease with the increase of temperature. When the temperature execeds its critical value, the pairwise concurrence disappears. Therefore, the pairwise entanglement can be controlled and enhanced by choosing the appropriate parameters of the DM interaction and the anisotropy exchange coupling.

Three-Qubit Ground State and Thermal Entanglement of $XXZ$ Model With Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya Interaction

Rouhollah Jafari, A. Langari

We have studied the symmetric and non-symmetric pairwise ground state and thermal entanglement in three-qubit anisotropic Heisenberg (XXZ) and Ising in a magnetic field models and in the presence of Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) interaction. We have found that increasing of the DM interaction and magnetic field can enhance and reduce the entanglement of system. We have shown that the non-symmetric pairwise has higher value concurrence and critical temperature (above which the entanglement vanishes) than the symmetric pairwise. For negative anisotropy the non-symmetric entanglement is a monotonic function of DM interaction while for positive anisotropy it has a maximum versus DM parameter and vanishes for larger values of DM interaction. The conditions for the existence of thermal entanglement are discussed in details. The most remarkable result happens at zero temperature where 3-qubit ground state entanglement of the system (in spite of 2-qubit counterpart) shows the fingerprint of quantum phase transition for an infinite size system.
