Abstract

Abstract This study investigates the quantum information dynamics of a multi-level atomic system interacting with an SU(1;1) quantum system, focusing on atomic inversion, entropy, coherence, and skew information. The system is specified as a two-level and three-level Λ-type configuration, incorporating multi-mode SU(1;1) quantum systems and the Stark effect. Numerical simulations are performed to solve the time-dependent density matrix equations under varying shift, intensity, and Stark parameters. Results show that increasing the shift stabilizes inversion but raises statistical uncertainty, while greater field intensity amplifies entropy. The Stark amplitude suppresses decoherence and improves quantum information retention. Negativity is used to quantify entanglement between the first two SU(1;1) modes, showing that stronger Stark shifts stabilize entanglement and coherence. Three-level systems consistently outperform two-level ones in preserving coherence and entanglement due to enhanced interference and spectral separation. Eigenvalue analysis reveals the nonlinear structure of three-level systems, explaining their robustness. These findings are supported by recent experiments in SU(1;1) interferometry and Stark-tuned quantum systems, offering insights for quantum sensing, computation, and communication.

Quantum coherence in three-level systems under the combined effect of stark effect and non-linear Kerr medium

Syed Jamal Anwar, Muklis Abdul Fattah Ibrahim, Majid Khan +3 more

This study investigates the quantum dynamics of three-level Stark-shifted atomic systems under the influence of a Nonlinear Kerr Medium (NLKM), focusing on the interplay between Quantum Fisher Information (QFI), Von Neumann Entropy (VNE), and photon-mediated interactions. By analyzing the temporal evolution of QFI (quantifying parameter estimation precision) and VNE (measuring quantum entanglement (QE), we demonstrate how Kerr nonlinearity (χ), Stark shifts (β), phase (ϕ), and photon numbers govern system behavior. Key findings reveal that lower χ values (e.g., [Formula: see text]) induce oscillatory QFI decay and rapid VNE growth, driven by atomic motion and NLKM interactions, with QFI peaks inversely correlated to VNE dips. Higher [Formula: see text] stabilizes both metrics, suppressing decoherence and entanglement fluctuations. Elevated photon numbers enhance stability by strengthening field-atom correlations, reducing oscillation amplitudes (particularly at low χ), and mitigating quantum fluctuations. The Stark effect (SE) amplifies energy-level shifts, while phase adjustments introduce asymmetries in quantum interference. These results highlight the system's tunability via [Formula: see text], and photon density. They position it as a versatile platform for quantum metrology and information processing, where precision, entanglement stability, and photon-mediated coherence are critical. Kerr interactions suppress long-time coherence and entanglement, while when [Formula: see text], Stark shifts can induce mild, transient quantum correlations. These dynamics are essential for controlling entanglement in cavity QED systems, especially when precise metrological performance is desired.

Enhancing the information of nonlinear SU(1, 1) quantum systems interacting with a two-level atom

Mahmoud Youssef Abd‐Rabbou, S. I. Ali, M. M. A. Ahmed

Abstract The effect of nonlinearity, initial atomic state, and different resonance cases on the interaction between nonlinear SU (1, 1) quantum states and a two-level atom is discussed. The optimal behaviours of decoherence, entanglement and quantum coherence are predicted via using the skew information, tomographic entropy, and the relative entropy of coherence, respectively. It is shown that the detuning parameter has a destructive effect on the coherence and consequently on the entanglement if the quantum system is regulated in the ideal SU (1, 1) quantum systems. For the nonlinear SU (1, 1) quantum systems, the ability to suppress the decay of entanglement induced by the detuning may be increased by preparing the initial atomic state in its excited state.

Quantum Fisher Information of Three-Level Atom Under the Combined Influence of the Non-Linear Kerr Medium and the Stark Effect

Syed Jamal Anwar, Muhammad Ibrahim, Majid Khan

We explore the dynamics of Quantum Fisher Information (QFI) and Von Neumann Entropy (VNE) in three-level stationary and moving Stark-shifted atomic systems influenced by a Nonlinear Kerr Medium (NLKM). QFI, which measures coherence and sensitivity to parameter changes, decreases over time due to decoherence, with slower decay at higher nonlinearity values. VNE, an indicator of quantum entanglement, increases over time, with stronger growth observed at lower nonlinearity valueThe Stark effect, caused by an external electric field, introduces energy level shifts that result in oscillatory behavior in both QFI and VNE. Stronger electric fields amplify these oscillations, enhancing sensitivity and entanglement dynamics. The system's phase significantly impacts its behavior, with symmetric patterns emerging at zero phase and more complex dynamics occurring at other phase values. In moving systems, atomic motion interacts with NLKM and Stark effects to produce periodic modulations in QFI and VNE. Lower nonlinearity values lead to pronounced oscillations, reflecting stronger quantum interactions, while higher values stabilize coherence. Peaks in QFI often align with dips in VNE, indicating a trade-off between precision and entanglement. Transient spikes in VNE highlight moments of enhanced quantum entanglement, while high QFI values signify robust coherence, critical for precision measurements. This study demonstrates the tunability of quantum systems through external field strength, nonlinearity, and phase, providing a framework for optimizing quantum sensing and exploring the fundamental dynamics of coherence and entanglement in quantum systems.

Dynamics of an adiabatically effective two-level atom interacting with a star-like system

M. Sebawe Abdalla, M. M. A. Ahmed, Eied Mahmoud Khalil +1 more

Using the adiabatic elimination we have managed to deal with the problem of the interaction between a single three-level atom and |$N$| two-level non-interacting atoms. The adiabatic elimination is used to obtain the effective Hamiltonian that describes a nonlinear interaction in the form of a Stark-like shift between a two-level atom and su|$(2)N$| two-level atoms. The time evolution operator is calculated in the presence of a Stark-like shift and the detuning parameters. The time-dependent wave function is determined through the evolution operator and consequently the density matrix is obtained. We adopt an initial wave function for the |$N$| two-level atoms that takes into account the structural degeneracies occurring in the system and thus generalize the atomic coherent state. The phenomenon of the collapses and revivals of the atomic population inversion for different values of the Stark shift parameters is considered. The degree of entanglement is also investigated and discussed, where the linear entropy is used. Finally we examine the variance squeezing for the system for different values of the involved parameters. It is shown that different values of the Stark shift parameters lead to different observations of the squeezing in the quadratures.

Entanglement Dynamics of Three and Four Level Atomic System under Stark Effect and Kerr-Like Medium

Syed Jamal Anwar, Muhammad Asif Ramzan, M. Usman +1 more

We investigated numerically the dynamics of quantum Fisher information (QFI) and entanglement for three- and four-level atomic systems interacting with a coherent field under the effect of Stark shift and Kerr medium. It was observed that the Stark shift and Kerr-like medium play a prominent role during the time evolution of the quantum systems. The non-linear Kerr medium has a stronger effect on the dynamics of QFI as compared to the quantum entanglement (QE). QFI is heavily suppressed by increasing the value of Kerr parameter. This behavior was found comparable in the cases of three- and four-level atomic systems coupled with a non-linear Kerr medium. However, QFI and quantum entanglement (QE) maintain their periodic nature under atomic motion. On the other hand, the local maximum value of QFI and von Neumann entropy (VNE) decrease gradually under the Stark effect. Moreover, no prominent difference in the behavior of QFI and QE was observed for three- and four-level atoms while increasing the value of Stark parameter. However, three- and four-level atomic systems were found equally prone to the non-linear Kerr medium and Stark effect. Furthermore, three- and four-level atomic systems were found fully prone to the Kerr-like medium and Stark effect.
