Engineering atom-atom thermal entanglement via two-photon process

Abstract

We study the system that two atoms simultaneously interact with a single-mode thermal field via different couplings and different spontaneous emission rates when two-photon process is involved. It is found that we indeed can employ the different couplings to produce the atom-atom thermal entanglement in two-photon process. The different atomic spontaneous emission rates are also utilizable in generating thermal entanglement. We also investigate the effect of the cavity leakage. To the initial atomic state $|ee> ,$a slight leakage can relieve the restriction of interaction time and we can obtain a large and steady entanglement.

Spontaneously created entanglement between two atoms

Z. Ficek

Spontaneous emission as a potential tool for creation of entanglement between two atoms is investigated. We assume that the atoms are coupled to the same environment and study entanglement engineering between the atoms and its transfer between different states. The role of the atomic coherence induced by spontaneous emission will be explored which, in contrast to what is generally believed, can create entanglement between initially unentangled atoms. We quantify entanglement by the concurrence and find that it exhibits threshold properties that can lead to interesting noncontinuous phenomena of sudden birth and sudden death of entanglement. In addition, we consider the mechanism involved in creation of entanglement between distant atoms coupled to a single-mode cavity field. We include a possible variation of the coupling constants between the atoms and the cavity mode with location of the atoms in a standing-wave cavity mode. Effectively, we engineer two coupled atoms whose the dynamics are analogous to that of interacting and collectively damped two nonidentical atoms. We illustrate the interesting result that spatial variations of the coupling constants can lead to a stationary entanglement between the atoms. We explain this effect in terms of the trapping phenomenon of atomic population in a non-decaying entangled state.

Entanglement induced by a single-mode thermal field and the criteria for entanglement

Ling Zhou, H. S. Song, C Li

We study the entanglement between two two-level atoms simultaneously interacting with a single-mode thermal field through a two-photon process. When the two atoms are initially in different states they can be entangled through interaction with the thermal field, and the entanglement induced by nonlinear interaction is larger than that induced by linear interaction. On the basis of our results we review two entanglement criteria.

Entanglement and Thermal Entanglement in Two-photon Model with Atomic Motion

LI Qu-lian

We investigate the entanglement and thermal entanglement between moving atom and Single-mode cavity in two-photon model by means of concurrence.It is shown that initial photons number and field-mode structure parameter affect entanglement and thermal entanglement in a certain degree.The evolution period of thermal entanglement doesn't change when the coupling constant between atom and cavity field has different values,while,the time of the system in maximum entanglement decreases when coupling constant reduces.Thermal entanglement decreases with the increase of system temperature when the temperature is under critical temperature.

Entanglement between two qubits one of which interacts with a thermal field

Eugene K. Bashkirov, Michail S. Mastyugin

In this paper, we have investigated the entanglement between two dipole coupled two-level atoms. The model, in which only one atom is trapped in an lossless cavity and interacts with single-mode thermal field, and the other one can be spatially moved freely outside the cavity has been carried out. We have considered the effect of the atomic coherence on the entanglement behavior. We have shown that a thermal field might cause high entanglement between the atoms both for coherent and incoherent initial atomic states only for small values of the cavity mean photon number. In the considered model the atoms would get entangled even when both atoms are initially in the excited state. We have also derived that the degree of entanglement is weakly dependent on the strength of dipole-dipole interaction for coherent initial states.

Thermal entanglement in Tavis–Cummings model with Kerr nonlinearity

Mikhail M. Evseev, Eugene K. Bashkirov

In this paper, we investigate entanglement between two two-level atoms when they simultaneously interact with a single-mode thermal field of a lossless cavity with Kerr medium. We show that a slight Kerr nonlinearity might enhance the degree of entanglement between the atoms. More interestingly, both atoms would somehow get entangled even when both atoms are initially in the excited state.
