Abstract

Abstract This study explores the dynamic evolution of non-classical correlations and coherence within a two-dimensional graphene layer, examining its vulnerability to intrinsic decoherence. We use local quantum uncertainty (LQU) to quantify the level of quantum correlations, while assessing quantum coherence using the $$l_1$$ l 1 -norm ( $$C_{l_1}$$ C l 1 ) and relative entropy of coherence ( $$C_r$$ C r ). We investigate how these quantum estimators respond to various parameters of the graphene system, including wavenumber operators, the initial-state mixing parameter, and intrinsic decoherence factor. Our results demonstrate that adjusting the wavenumber operators, increasing the purity parameter, and reducing the intrinsic decoherence rate can enhance both quantum coherence and correlations in the graphene layer system. Furthermore, we observe that $$C_{l_1}$$ C l 1 and $$C_{r}$$ C r exhibit greater resilience to intrinsic decoherence compared to LQU.

Effects of intrinsic decoherence on quantum coherence and correlations between spins within a two-dimensional honeycomb lattice graphene layer system

Zakaria Bouafia, Samira Elghaayda, Mostafa Mansour

This research delves into the influence of intrinsic decoherence on the behavior of quantum correlations and coherence between two interacting qubits in a graphene-based system. To evaluate the amount of nonclassical correlations in the system, we employ local quantum uncertainty (LQU), and to assess quantum coherence we use the relative entropy of coherence [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]-norm [Formula: see text]. We assume that the system is initially prepared in an extended-Werner-like (EWL) state, and we investigate how these quantifiers evolve over time and examine their sensitivity to various graphene layer system parameters, mixture parameter of the initial state and the intrinsic decoherence rate. Our results indicate that by adjusting the wave number operators, decreasing the intrinsic decoherence rate, and increasing the initial state mixing parameter, it is possible to enhance both quantum correlations and coherence within the two-dimensional honeycomb lattice system. In addition, we found that quantum coherence is more resilient to intrinsic decoherence than LQU, moreover, the [Formula: see text]-norm is more robust than the relative entropy of coherence.

Quantum interferometric power versus quantum correlations in a graphene layer system with a scattering process under thermal noise

Zakaria Bouafia, Mostafa Mansour

Abstract Cutting-edge quantum processing technology is currently exploring the remarkable electronic properties of graphene layers, such as their high mobility and thermal conductivity. Our research is dedicated to investigating the behavior of quantum resources within a graphene layer system with a scattering process, specifically focusing on quantum interferometric power (QIP) and quantum correlations, while taking into account the influence of thermal noise. To quantify these correlations, we employ measures like local quantum uncertainty (LQU) and logarithmic negativity (LN). We examine how factors like temperature, inter-valley scattering processes strength, and other system parameters affect both QIP and quantum correlations. Our results reveal that higher temperatures lead to a reduction in QIP and non-classical correlations within graphene layers. Moreover, it is noteworthy that QIP and LQU respond similarly to changes in temperature, whereas LN is more sensitive to these variations. By optimizing system parameters such as band parameter, wavenumber operators and scattering processes strength, we can mitigate the impact of thermal noise and enhance the quantum advantages of graphene-based quantum processing

Dynamics of quantum-memory assisted entropic uncertainty and entanglement in two-dimensional graphene

Abdel‐Haleem Abdel‐Aty, Mohamed Omri, A.‐B. A. Mohamed +1 more

We explore the quantum-memory assisted entropic uncertainty (QMA-EU), Jensen-Shannon coherence and entanglement dynamics in a Graphene sheet of disordered electrons in the presence of the intrinsic decoherence. The Graphene sheet containing two sublattices in a two-dimensional honeycomb lattice, which results due to the impurity-potentials interaction of two Dirac points. Entropic uncertainty and logarithmic negativity are used to investigate the generation and preservation of QMA-EU and entanglement under the major factors of Graphene material, including the band structure parameter, the wave numbers as well as the decoherence effect. For the initial uncorrelated two-lattice-point-qubit state, it is found that the lattice-point interactions have high capacity to generated partially/maximally two-lattice-point-qubit entangled and hence the partial/perfect Bob’s ability to guessing the outcome of Alice’s measurement. The increase of the graphite band structure parameter, the wave numbers enhance the generated lattice-point entanglement and Jensen-Shannon coherence, and hence the quantum memory game has a high prediction accuracy. For the intrinsic decoherence, the ability to generate entanglement, Jensen-Shannon coherence. and guessing the Alice’s measurement outcomes weakens. The sudden death-birth phenomenon in the logarithmic-negativity dynamics appears. The increase of the graphite band structure parameter weakens the robustness dynamics against the decoherence effect, while the increase of the wave number operators enhances this robustness. For initial maximally correlated state, the robustness dynamics of the QMA-EU, Jensen-Shannon coherence, and logarithmic-negativity entanglement is very sensitive to the increase of the band structure, wave numbers, and intrinsic decoherence.

Nonclassical correlations in two-dimensional graphene lattices

Hao Wang

Abstract We investigate nonclassical correlations via negativity, local quantum uncertainty (LQU) and local quantum Fisher information (LQFI) for two-dimensional graphene lattices. The explicitly analytical expressions for negativity, LQU and LQFI are given. The close forms of LQU and LQFI confirm the inequality between the quantum Fisher information and skew information, where the LQFI is always greater than or equal to the LQU, and both show very similar behavior with different amplitudes. Moreover, the effects of the different system parameters on the quantified quantum correlation are analyzed. The LQFI reveals more nonclassical correlations than LQU in a two-dimensional graphene lattice system.

Dynamics of quantum correlations in a quantum dot system with intrinsic decoherence effects

Essalha Chaouki, Zakaria Dahbi, Mostafa Mansour

In this paper, we explore the dynamics of quantum correlations in an isolated physical quantum dot under the influence of intrinsic decoherence (ID). We characterize quantum correlations in the quantum dot system using Concurrence to capture the amount of entanglement, and we use Trace Distance Discord (TDD) and Local Quantum Uncertainty (LQU) to measure nonclassical correlations. Likewise, we investigate the effect of ID on the temporal evolution of these quantifiers. In particular, the behavior of the two discord-like quantifiers in terms of the system parameters and the ID rate is investigated and analyzed in detail. We found that TDD and LQU behave similarly for different parameters characterizing the considered system and that TDD is more resistant than Concurrence and LQU against the ID effects. Our results also show that the robustness of quantum correlations can be modulated by adjusting the ID rate, quantum dot physical properties and initial conditions.

Local quantum uncertainty in a two-qubit Heisenberg spin chain with intrinsic decoherence

You-neng Guo, Hu-Ping Peng, Qinglong Tian +2 more

Abstract Quantum correlation plays an important role in quantum information processing, for which various quantifiers have been proposed so far. In this paper, we address the dynamics of local quantum uncertainty (LQU) as a reliable quantifier of quantum correlation in a two-qubit Heisenberg spin chain in the presence of nonuniform external magnetic field and Dzyaloshinski-Moriya interaction with intrinsic decoherence. The influences of the initial states, external magnetic field strength, Dzyaloshinski-Moriya interaction strength and intrinsic decoherence rate on the dynamics of LQU have been in detail investigated. Our analytical results show that the dynamics of LQU is strongly depended on the form of initial states. For an initial correlated state, the dynamical behaviors of LQU exhibit either monotonic decay or damped oscillations with respect to time. While for an initial separable state, quantum correlation quantified by LQU can be created due to the Dzyaloshinski-Moriya interaction and Heisenberg anisotropic interaction. Besides, the relationship between LQU and l -norm coherence or concurrence is also demonstrated in the present model.
