Generation of Different Classes of Multipartite Entanglement Using Cavity-QED

Abstract

Abstract Using a system of cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED) we present two schemes for multipartite entanglement generation. In the first scheme, a three-level atom is interacting with three cavities successively. In the second one, two three-level atoms are interacted with a coherent optical cavity. These protocols allow us to generate the six classes of tripartite entanglement (GHZ, W, A-B-C, AB-C, C-AB, and B-AC class states) by controling the interaction time between atoms and cavities. Moreover, they allow us to generate entanglement between the cavity fields degrees of freedom (from the first scheme), and a mixed entanglement between the cavity field degrees of freedom and the atomic degrees of freedom.

Entanglement engineering of a GHZ-state and W-state using arbitrary numbers of cavities

Zainub Liaqat, Aeysha Khalique, Manzoor Ikram

Abstract We develop a theoretical model for entanglement engineering to generate a multipartite system of field states in high-Q cavities using a cavity-QED. Our model consists of two-level atoms interacting successively with the field inside the arbitrary number of high-Q cavities for pre-calculated interaction times of the atoms with the fields. Controlling these pre-calculated interaction times of the atom-field gives the successful generation of the Greenberg–Horne–Zeilinger (GHZ) state and the W-state in N cavities. We also evaluate the dynamics of entanglement of GHZ entangled field states when they interact with the reservoir.

Generation of entangled coherent states in cavity QED and its nonclassicality

Chenchao Hua, Shi-Qing Tang

Cavity quantum electrodynamics is the intersection of quantum physics and microcavity optics research. In this paper, we presented a two-mode cavity coupled to a classical field driven by N three-level atoms to prepare entangled coherent states based on cavity QED. In this scheme, we adopt the interaction between the three-level atoms and the two-mode optical cavity, The initial state of one optical field is an odd-even coherent state, while the initial state of another optical field is a coherent state. After considering the time evolution of the initial states with the system, we obtained the specific form of the time evolution of the quantum states and prepared the entangled coherent state successfully. We discussed and analysed some of the nonclassical properties of the optical field and quantum states, including the second-order correlation function and the Wigner function. The results show that when calculating the second-order correlation function, the photons are found to exhibit a sub-Poisson distribution at some points in time. In addition, when observing the Wigner function of the quantum states evolving with time, it is found that there is a negative part of the Wigner distribution at some moments, which implies that the quantum state exhibits nonclassical properties at these certain moments.

Tripartite entanglement in multimode cavity quantum electrodynamics

Nishan Amgain, Mostafijur Rahman, Umar Arshad +3 more

We numerically investigate the generation and dynamics of tripartite entanglement among qubits (quantum emitters or atoms) in multimode cavity quantum electrodynamics (cQED). Our cQED architecture features three initially unentangled excited two-level quantum emitters confined within a triangle-shaped multimode optical cavity, which later become entangled due to a Jaynes-Cummings-like interaction. Using the tripartite negativity measure of entanglement and fidelity with respect to the genuine tripartite entangled state (Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger state, to be precise), we analyze the impact of the number of cavity modes, qubit locations, and losses (spontaneous emission from qubits and photon leakage from the cavity mirrors) on the generated entanglement. Our key results include the presence of two kinds of retardation effects: one resulting from the time it takes for photons to propagate from one qubit to another, and the other to complete one round trip in the cavity. We observed these retardation effects only in multimode cavities, with the exciting possibility of controlling the collapse and revival patterns of tripartite entanglement by altering the qubit locations in the cavity. Furthermore, the impact of losses on the generated entanglement and the dependence of maximum entanglement on the total number of modes yield results that surpass those reported for single and two excitations. With recent advances in circuit quantum electrodynamics, these findings hold promise for the development of entanglement-based quantum networking protocols and quantum memories.

Simulation of Multipartite Cavity Quantum Electrodynamics

Moslem Alidoosty Shahraki, Sina Ataollah Khorasani, Mohammad Hasan Aram

Cavity quantum electrodynamics of multipartite systems are studied in depth, which consists of an arbitrary number of emitters in interaction with an arbitrary number of cavity modes. The governing model is obtained by taking the full field-dipole and dipole-dipole interactions into account, and is solved in the Schrödinger picture with assumption of vanishing field and dipole interactions at high energies. An extensive code is developed that is able to solve the system and track its evolution in time, while maintaining sufficient degrees of arbitrariness in setting up the initial conditions and interacting partitions. Using this code, we have been able to numerically evaluate various parameters such as probabilities, expectation values (of field and atomic operators), and the concurrence as the most rigorously defined measure of entanglement of quantum systems. We present and discuss several examples including a seven-partition system consisting of six quantum dots interacting with one cavity mode. We observe for the first time that the behavior of quantum systems under ultrastrong coupling is significantly different than the weakly and strongly coupled systems, marked by onset of chaos and abrupt phase changes. We also discuss how to implement spin into the theoretical picture and thus, successfully simulate a recently reported spin-entanglement experiment.

We have theoretically investigated the physical realization of entangled coherent states using cavity quantum electrodynamics. Specifically, a protocol of the cyclic three-level atoms interacting with bimodal cavity QED is proposed. The results show that the entanglement degree of the entangled state can be maintained at a high level under certain conditions.

Generation of a GHZ-type optical entangled coherent state without measurements

Tong Liu, Y. H. Zhou, Qi‐Cheng Wu +1 more

Typically, multipartite entangled coherent states are difficult to be extended and produced without measurement. We here propose a way to deterministically generate a GHZ (Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger)-type entangled coherent state of cavities, utilizing a system consisting of a single superconducting qutrit (i.e., a three-level quantum system) and multiple microwave cavities. Due to the use of only a coupler qutrit, the architecture of the circuit system is quite simple. More importantly, our proposal does not require measurement on the state of qutrit compared with the previous proposals. Since the qutrit's third energy level is not populated during the operation, decoherence from the higher energy level is greatly minimized. Furthermore, the entire operation time is independent of the number of microwave cavities. As an example, our numerical simulations show that high-fidelity generation of a three-cavity GHZ-type entangled coherent state is feasible with present circuit quantum electrodynamics technology. This proposal is universal and can be applied to other physical systems, such as microwave or optical cavities, which are coupled to a single natural or artificial three-level atom.
