Abstract
We present solutions of the time dependent Schrodinger equation for a SQUID ring coupled to an electromagnetic field, both treated quantum mechanically. We that show the SQUID ring can be used to create a maximally entangled state with the em field that without dissipation remains constant in time. Using methods familiar in quantum optics, we extend the model to include the effects of coupling this system to a dissipative environment. With this model we show that although such an environment makes a noticeable difference to the time evolution of the system, it need not destroy the the entanglement of this coupled system over time scales required for quantum technologies.
