Thermal entanglement in a mixed spin Heisenberg XXX chain with DM interaction
Nizar Ahami, M. El Baz
Abstract
We consider a one-dimensional, mixed spin Heisenberg XXX model with an homogeneous external magnetic field and Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya interaction. Alternating spin-[Formula: see text] and spin-1 particles are forming the chain. The effect of the different parameters of the system on the bipartite thermal entanglement is studied. The type of chain used (mixed) and the size of the chain ([Formula: see text]) allow to study three types of bipartite entanglement, the qubit–qubit, qubit–qutrit and qutrit–qutrit thermal entanglement.
