Quantum correlation and entropic uncertainty in a quantum-dot system

Abstract

We explore the dynamical behaviors of the measurement uncertainty and quantum correlation for a vertical quantum-dot system in the presence of magnetic field, including electron-electron interaction and Coulomb-blocked systems. Stemming from the quantum-memory-assisted entropic uncertainty relation, the uncertainty of interest is associated with temperature and parameters related to the magnetic field. Interestingly, the temperature has two kinds of influences on the variation of measurement uncertainty with respect to the magnetic-field-related parameters. We also discuss the relation between the lower bound of Berta et al. and the quantum discord. It is found that there is a natural competition between the quantum discord and the entropy min Π i B S Π i B ( ρ A | B ) . Finally, we bring in two improved bounds to offer a more precise limit to the entropic uncertainty.

Probing entropic uncertainty and quantum correlations in a quadruple quantum dot device for two charge qubits

Hao Wang

Abstract We analyze the quantum correlations, the quantum-memory-assisted entropic uncertainty (QMA-EUR), and its lower bound in a quadruple quantum dot device for two charge qubits. Herein, we select incompatible Pauli operators σ ^ x and σ ^ z as a pair of observables of interest for the measurement of particle A, and the uncertainty can be predicted from the entanglement of particle A with quantum memory B . We explore the dynamics of quantum discord and QMA-EUR, taking into account the effects of electron temperature, energy offsets, tunneling coupling, and the strength of coupling (i.e., the Coulomb interaction between electrons). Interestingly, our results indicate that there are certain adjustable parameters that can be tuned to suppress the entropy uncertainty bound and enhance quantum correlations.

Quantum correlations and quantum-memory-assisted entropic uncertainty relation in a quantum dot system

Soroush Haseli

The uncertainty principle is one of the comprehensive and fundamental concept in quantum theory. This principle states that it is not possible to simultaneously measure two incompatible observatories with high accuracy. Uncertainty principle has been formulated in various form. The most famous type of uncertainty relation is expressed based on the standard deviation of observables. In quantum information theory the uncertainty principle can be formulated using Shannon and von Neumann entropy. Entropic uncertainty relation in the presence of quantum memory is one of the most useful entropic uncertainty relations. Due to their importance and scalability, solid state systems have received considerable attention nowadays. In this work we will consider a quantum dot system as a solid state system. We will study the quantum correlation and quantum memory assisted entropic uncertainty in this typ of system. We will show that the temperature in of quantum dot system can affect the quantum correlation and entropic uncertainty bound. It will be observed that the entropic uncertainty bound decreases with decreasing temperature and quantum correlations decreases with increasing the temperature.

Probing the entropic uncertainty bound and quantum correlations in a quantum dot system

Soroush Haseli, Saeed Haddadi, Mohammad Reza Pourkarimi

Abstract The uncertainty principle is one of the most comprehensive and fundamental concepts in quantum theory and it states that it is not possible to simultaneously measure two incompatible observables with high accuracy. In particular, we show that the entropic uncertainty relation that uses quantum memory is one of the most useful entropic uncertainty relations. In this work, we consider a quantum dot system as a solid-state system which is in the thermal regime, and we then probe the quantum correlations and the quantum-memory-assisted entropic uncertainty bound in this type of system. Interestingly, our results show that there are some system parameters that can be adjusted to suppress the entropic uncertainty bound and improve quantum correlations.

The uncertainty and quantum correlation of measurement in double quantum-dot systems

Long-Yu Cheng, Fei Ming, Fa Zhao +2 more

In this work, we study the entropic uncertainty and quantum discord in two double-quantum-dot (DQD) system coupled via a transmission line resonator (TLR). Explicitly, the dynamics of the systemic quantum correlation and measured uncertainty are analysed with respect to a general X-type state as the initial state. Interestingly, it is found that the different parameters, including the eigenvalue α of the coherent state, detuning amount δ , frequency ω and the coupling constant g , have subtle effects on the dynamics of the entropic uncertainty, such as the oscillation period of the uncertainty. It is clear to reveal that the quantum discord and the lower bound of the entropic uncertainty are anti-correlated when the initial state of the system is the Werner-type state, while quantum discord and the lower bound of the entropic uncertainty are not anti-correlated when the initial state of the system is the Bell-diagonal state. Thereby, we claim that the current investigation would provide an insight into the entropic uncertainty and quantum correlation in DQDs system, and are basically of importance to quantum precision measurement in practical quantum information processing.

Entropic Uncertainty Relations with Quantum Memory in Accelerated Frames via Unruh-DeWitt Detectors

Ming-Ming Du, Hong-Wei Li, Shu-Ting Shen +5 more

Quantum uncertainty is deeply linked to quantum correlations and relativistic motion. The entropic uncertainty relation with quantum memory offers a powerful way to study how shared entanglement affects measurement precision. However, under acceleration, the Unruh effect can degrade quantum correlations, raising questions about the reliability of QMA-EUR in such settings. Here, we investigate the QMA-EUR for two uniformly accelerating Unruh-DeWitt detectors coupled to a massless scalar field. Using the Kossakowski-Lindblad master equation, we calculate the entropic uncertainty, its lower bound, and the tightness of the relation under different Unruh temperatures. We find that acceleration does not always increase the lower bound on the uncertainty relation. Depending on the initial correlations between the detectors, it may either increase or decrease. This behavior results from the interplay between quantum discord and minimal missing information. Interestingly, a higher quantum discord does not necessarily lead to lower uncertainty.

Entropic uncertainty and quantum correlations dynamics in a system of two qutrits exposed to local noisy channels

Atta Ur Rahman, Mahmoud Youssef Abd‐Rabbou, S. M. Zangi +1 more

Abstract We address the dynamics of the lower bound of geometric quantum discord and quantum-memory-assisted entropic uncertainty in a two-qutrit system when exposed to classical channels characterized by power-law (PL) and random telegraph (RT) noises. The system-channel coupling strategy is examined in two contexts: common qutrit-environment (CQE) and different qutrit-environment (DQE) configurations. We show that the geometric quantum discord functions remain anti-correlated with entropic uncertainty and decline as uncertainty appears in the system. The rate of entropic uncertainty appearance seems more prevalent than the decline rate of quantum discord function, suggesting that uncertainty causes the quantum correlations to fade in quantum systems. We find that non-local correlations estimated by the lower bound of geometric quantum discord are not destroyed even at the maximum entropic disorder and entropic uncertainty. In addition, the efficacy of entropic uncertainty and the lower bound is strongly influenced by the state’s purity factor, with the former being more robust at higher purity values and the latter at lower purity values. All the parameters impact entropic uncertainty, however, the mixedness of the state is noticed to greatly alter the generation of quantum memory. Besides, PL noise caused Markovian behavioral dynamics, and the RT noise allowed non-Markovian dynamics, while the latter remains more resourceful for the quantum correlations preservation and entropic uncertainty suppression. We also demonstrate how to model longer quantum correlations and provide optimal parameter settings for suppressing the dephasing and entropic uncertainty effects.
