Abstract

The Wigner quasi-probability distribution function is an important tool for estimating the quantumness of quantum states. The Wigner distribution function (WDF) is related monotonically to the coherent field state density operator and their probability distributions. In this paper, we analyze the time-dependent resonator coherent field states produced by a flux qubit’s interaction with a resonator through a two-photon coupling. The WDF dynamics of the coherent field states is investigated under the effects of the qubit-resonator detuning and the intrinsic decoherence. The WDF non-classicality associated with the mixedness resonator entropy dynamics can be controlled by varying the qubit-resonator interaction, detuning as well as the decoherence. The intrinsic decoherence clearly affects the WDF non-classicality, identified by the negative values of the WDF. Finally, by fixing one or both of the complex phase space components, we are able to explore the dynamics of the Wigner-distribution functions.

Influence of the Coupling between Two Qubits in an Open Coherent Cavity: Nonclassical Information via Quasi-Probability Distributions

In this paper, we investigate the dynamics of two coupled two-level systems (or qubits) that are resonantly interacting with a microwave cavity. We examine the effects of the intrinsic decoherence rate and the coupling between the two qubits on the non-classicality of different system partitions via quasi-probability functions. New definitions for the partial Q-function and its Wehrl entropy are used to investigate the information and the quantum coherence of the phase space. The amount of the quantum coherence and non-classicality can be appropriately tuned by suitably adopting the rates of the intrinsic-decoherence and the coupling between the two qubits. The intrinsic decoherence has a pronounced effect on the negativity and the positivity of the Wigner function. The coupling between the two qubits can control the negativity and positivity of the quasi-probability functions.

Quantum coherence induced by a flux qubit coupled by a resonator coherent field through a two-photon interaction

Abstract The intrinsic decoherence effects on a flux qubit coupled to a resonator through a two-photon interaction where the resonator field is initially in coherent and even coherent states are investigated. The qubit-resonator entanglement and coherence loss (mixedness) of the system and its subsystems are examined using entropy and negativity. The ability of the qubit-resonator interaction to generate quantum coherence (qubit-resonator entanglement and mixedness) is shown to be dependent on the initial cavity non-classicality, detuning, and decoherence. For larger values of the qubit-resonator detuning, the initial resonator non-classicality can enhance the generation and stability of quantum coherence. The decoherence degrades the qubit-resonator entanglement and destroys the sudden death-birth entanglement.

Quasi-probability information in a coupled two-qubit system interacting non-linearly with a coherent cavity under intrinsic decoherence

Abdel‐Baset A. Mohamed, Hichem Eleuch

We explore the phase space quantum effects, quantum coherence and non-classicality, for two coupled identical qubits with intrinsic decoherence. The two qubits are in a nonlinear interaction with a quantum field via an intensity-dependent coupling. We investigate the non-classicality via the Wigner functions. We also study the phase space information and the quantum coherence via the Q-function, Wehrl density, and Wehrl entropy. It is found that the robustness of the non-classicality for the superposition of coherent states, is highly sensitive to the coupling constants. The phase space quantum information and the matter-light quantum coherence can be controlled by the two-qubit coupling, initial cavity-field and the intrinsic decoherence.

Wigner Function Non-Classicality Induced in a Charge Qubit Interacting with a Dissipative Field Cavity

We explore a superconducting charge qubit interacting with a dissipative microwave cavity field. Wigner distribution and its non-classicality are investigated analytically under the effects of the qubit–cavity interaction, the qubit–cavity detuning, and the dissipation. As the microwave cavity field is initially in an even coherent state, we investigate the non-classicality of the Wigner distributions. Partially and maximally frozen entanglement are produced by the qubit–cavity interaction, depending on detuning and cavity dissipation. It is found that the amplitudes and frequency of the Wigner distribution can be controlled by the phase space parameters, the qubit–cavity interaction and the detuning, as well as by the dissipation. The cavity dissipation reduces the non-classicality; this process can be accelerated by the detuning.

Optical tomography dynamics induced by qubit-resonator interaction under intrinsic decoherence

A.‐B. A. Mohamed, Hichem Eleuch

A superconducting circuit with a qubit and a resonator coupled via a two-photon interaction is considered. When the resonator is initially in a superposition of coherent states, optical tomography and quantum coherence dynamics are examined in the context of intrinsic decoherence. The results reveal that optical tomography is a good quantifier of the quantum coherence produced by the qubit-resonator interaction. The effects of qubit-resonator detuning and intrinsic decoherence on the dynamics of optical tomography distributions for coherent and even coherent states are investigated. The dynamics of optical tomography distributions are highly dependent on detuning and intrinsic decoherence. Our numerical simulations reveal that there is a relation between the optical tomography and the generated quantum coherence. When the qubit-resonator detuning and intrinsic decoherence are augmented, the amplitude and intensity, as well as the structure of the optical tomography, change substantially.
