Dynamics of quantum steerability for two atoms in coupled cavities

Abstract

We study the dynamics of quantum steerability between two non-interacting atoms, each of which is trapped inside one of two coupled cavities. Compared with entanglement, quantum steerability manifests sudden birth and sudden death phenomenon during the time evolution. We find that the cavity decay plays a destruction role for both steerability and entanglement. It is also shown that the survival time as well as the maximal value of steerability are sensitive to the asymmetry of the cavities. Moreover, it is found the sudden death of steerability can be controlled by the hopping rate of the coupled cavities.

The dynamics of entanglement and quantum discord of two atoms in coupled cavities

Qing-Xia Mu, Ye-Qi Zhang, Jie Song

We investigate the dynamics of quantum correlations such as entanglement and quantum discord between two noninteracting atoms, each of which is trapped inside one of two coupled cavities. We find that the cavity decay can induce both entanglement and quantum discord between the two atoms when they are initially prepared in doubly excited state. The result shows the sudden death and sudden birth of entanglement and robustness of the quantum discord to sudden death. It is also found that the doubly excited state is responsible for the sudden death of entanglement. Moreover, the sudden death of entanglement can be controlled by the intercavity hopping rate.

Quantum Entanglement Dynamics of Two Atoms in Two Coupled Cavities

Rong‐Can Yang, Pengfei Zhang, Yanqiang Guo +1 more

Quantum entanglement dynamics for two atoms trapped in two coupled cavities is investigated. Numerical results show that the present of the two atomic excitations is mainly accounted for the entanglement-sudden-death (ESD) effect with the two cavities initially in the vacuum. The entanglement can also be controlled by the hopping rate and the imbalances between the two atom-cavity coupling rates.

Control of two-atom entanglement with two thermal fields in coupled cavities

Li-Tuo Shen, Zhen‐Biao Yang, Huai‐Zhi Wu +2 more

The dynamical evolution of a quantum system composed of two coupled cavities, each containing a two-level atom and a single-mode thermal field, is investigated under different conditions. The entanglement between the two atoms is controlled by the hopping strength and the detuning between the atomic transition and the cavities. We find that when the atomic transition is far off-resonant with both the eigenmodes of the coupled-cavity system, the maximally entangled state for the two atoms can be generated with the initial state in which one atom is in the ground state and the other is in the excited state. When both the two atoms are initially in the excited state, the entanglement exhibits periodical sudden birth and death. By choosing appropriate parameter values, the initial maximal entanglement of the two atoms can be frozen. The relation between the concurrence and the cooperative parameter is calculated.

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.

Sudden Death and Sudden Birth of Entanglement Between Two Atoms Successively Passing Fock State Field

Gao De-ying

The dynamics of entanglement of two initially separate atoms passing through a cavity one after another is studied by the negativity method.The effects of the two atom initial states and the field in the fock state on the time evolution of atom-atom entanglement are examined.The phenomenon of sudden birth and death of entanglement occurs when the photon number in the fock state is not zero and the phenomenon will change with the two atom initial states and the photon number.
