We study the entanglement dynamics of a pair of non-identical interacting atoms (qubits) coupled off-resonance to a single-mode cavity radiation field and exposed to dephasing environments. The qubits are studied starting from various initial states that are disentangled from an initially coherent field. The system models the basic building units of quantum information processing (QIP) platforms under the realistic considerations of asymmetry and external environmental influences. We investigate how introducing a radiation field alters the system's entanglement dynamics in the presence of dephasing environments, and how it impacts the effects of the dephasing environments themselves. The work examines the problem under various settings of inter-qubit interactions, which are now experimentally controllable in some of the newly engineered artificial qubit systems. We illustrate that only upon introducing the radiation field, the system suffers a terminal disentanglement (followed by no revivals) in a finite time. This behavior is exacerbated when the atoms' interaction with the field is stronger. Moreover, the effects of the field's intensity and the atoms' detunings are vastly sensitive to the choice of the initial state. We also demonstrate that the closer the atoms' transition frequencies are to resonance with the field, the more pronounced are the effects of strengthening the independent dephasing environments corresponding to some initial states. Those states also suffered a greater reduction in entanglement content when the qubits with stronger atom-field interaction strength were influenced by a stronger independent dephasing environment. In addition, we examined the ability of the correlated dephasing environment to induce a noise-enhanced efficiency in the presence of an external radiation field. We showed that the radiation field could play a decisive role in enabling or restricting noise-enhanced efficiency, but one that is also highly sensitive to the system's initial state.

One of the main obstacles toward building efficient quantum computing systems is decoherence, where the inevitable interaction between the qubits and the surrounding environment leads to a vanishing entanglement. We consider a system of two interacting asymmetric two-level atoms (qubits) in the presence of pure and correlated dephasing environments. We study the dynamics of entanglement while varying the interaction strength between the two qubits, their relative frequencies, and their coupling strength to the environment starting from different initial states of practical interest. The impact of the asymmetry of the two qubits, reflected in their different frequencies and coupling strengths to the environment, varies significantly depending on the initial state of the system and its degree of anisotropy. For an initial disentangled, or a Werner, state, as the difference between the frequencies increases, the entanglement decay rate increases, with more persistence at the higher degrees of anisotropy in the former state. However, for an initial anti-correlated Bell state, the entanglement decays more rapidly in the symmetric case compared with the asymmetric one. The difference in the coupling strengths of the two qubits to the pure (uncorrelated) dephasing environment leads to higher entanglement decay in the different initial state cases, though the rate varies depending on the degree of anisotropy and the initial state. Interestingly, the correlated dephasing environment, within a certain range, was found to enhance the entanglement dynamics starting from certain initial states, such as the disentangled, anti-correlated Bell, and Werner, whereas it exhibits a decaying effect in other cases such as the initial correlated Bell state.
We study a model of two coupled two-level atoms (qubits) interacting off-resonance (at non-zero detuning) with a single mode radiation field. This system is of special interest in the field of quantum information processing (QIP) and can be realized in electron spin states in quantum dots or Rydberg atoms in optical cavities and superconducting qubits in linear resonators. We present an exact analytical solution for the time evolution of the system starting from any initial state. Utilizing this solution, we show how the entanglement sudden death (ESD), which represents a major threat to QIP, can be efficiently controlled by tuning atom-atom coupling and non-zero detuning. We demonstrate that while one of these two system parameters may not separately affect the ESD, combining the two can be very effective, as in the case of an initial correlated Bell state. However in other cases, such as a W-like initial state, they may have a competing impacts on ESD. Moreover, their combined effect can be used to create ESD in the system, as in the case of an anti-correlated initial Bell state. A clear synchronization between the population inversion collapse-revival pattern and the entanglement dynamics is observed at all system parameter combinations. Nevertheless, only for initial states that may evolve to ESD, the population inversion revival oscillations, where exchange of energy between the atoms and the field takes place, temporally coincide with the entanglement revival peaks, whereas the population collapse periods match the ESD intervals. The variation of the radiation field intensity has a clear impact on the duration of the ESD at any combination of the other system parameters.
Entanglement dynamics of two identical non-interacting atoms (qubits) coupled individually with simultaneous classical and quantum fields are studied. The cavity field is filled with a nonlinear Kerr medium and initially prepared in a coherent state. The atoms are initially set up as a Bell-like pure state (BS). We present an approach for diagonalization of time-dependent nonlinear Hamiltonian of the system exactly. Connection between the change in the degree of entanglement and tomography of field state in phase space are also illustrated and interpreted. We demonstrate the possibility of atom–atom (qubit–qubit) entanglement optimization by suitably choosing initial interaction settings. Overall, we show that both classical driving amplitude and detuning as well as Kerr media and initial atomic states acts as the control parameters for the qubit–qubit entanglement. By adjusting of these parameters, accurately, entanglement can be enhanced noticeably and high degree of steady periodical entanglement can be generated. Moreover, starting with initial atomic BSs in presence of classical driving suppresses coherences randomness and considerably accompanied with (for specific values of detuning) slight decrease in their amplitudes. Furthermore, the addition of cross Kerr term suppresses degree of entanglement noticeably, where entanglement creation and enhancement could just be possible if cross Kerr effect is moved out from interaction. Our present approach promises the great advantage of being suitable for large quantum systems of various kinds of nonlinearities.
The exact dynamics of a model consisting of two identical qubits interacting non-resonantly with the electromagnetic field mode of an ideal resonator via single-photon transitions is found in the presence of direct Ising interaction of qubits. The exact solution is used to calculate the two-qubit negativity of qubits in the case of a coherent initial state of qubits and a thermal state of the resonator field. It is shown that in the case of resonant interaction of qubits with the field, the initial atomic coherence leads to a significant increase in the maximum degree of entanglement. The inclusion of direct Ising interaction of qubits can significantly enhance the entanglement of qubits in both coherent and non-coherent initial states of qubits. In the case of non-resonant interaction of qubits and the resonator field, the detuning leads to a weakening of the effect of atomic coherence on the dynamics of qubit entanglement.
This study examines the analysis of the teleportation process in a two-qubit state, particularly scrutinizing the interplay of atomic dipole coupling interaction, the detuning parameter, photon count, and the surrounding environment. Our investigation assumes the existence of a teleportation channel comprising two-qubit systems interacting with a photon field enveloped by the dephasing environment. Within this framework, we closely examine the quantum correlations exhibited by the teleported state, encompassing dimensions of entanglement, steering, and non-locality. Our results underscore the pivotal role played by the initial state of the atomic and field subsystems in shaping quantum relations. The dipole coupling has a profound impact, significantly enhancing the three quantifiers. Particularly, the entanglement changes from a de-entangled state to a partially entangled state. On the other hand, the detuning parameter introduces distortion in the quantum correlations, a phenomenon that can be effectively mitigated by controlling the dipole coupling.
In this article, author investigated the dynamics of entanglement of two dipole-coupled natural or artificial two-level atoms (qubits) interacting nonresonantly with the intensive one-mode cavity thermal field. Author found an exact solution of the quantum Liouville equation for the full density matrix of the system two atoms + field mode for a coherent initial state of atoms in the dressed states representation. The full system density matrix is used to calculate the two-atom reduced density matrix and to calculate the quantitative criterion for atom-atom entanglement ‒ negativity. The results of computer simulation of the time dependence of negativity showed that in the case of a model with nonresonant interaction, the presence of initial atomic coherence leads to a significant decrease in the maximum degree of atomic entanglement, in contrast to the model with resonant interaction of atoms and a field. For the resonance model, the initial atomic coherence greatly enhances the degree of atomic entanglement.
