The entanglement of two dipole–dipole coupled atoms interacting with a thermal field via a two-photon process

This paper studies entanglement between two dipole–dipole coupled atoms interacting with a thermal field via a two-photon process. It shows that the entanglement is dependent on the mean photon number of the thermal field and the dipole–dipole interaction. The results also show that the atom–atom entanglement through the two-photon process is larger than that through the one-photon process and a remarkable amount of entanglement between the atoms still remains at certain times even for a very highly noisy thermal field.

Quantum entanglement in the system of a moving V-type three-level atom interacting with the SU(1,1)-related coherent fields

In a system with a moving V-type three-level atom interacting with the SU(1,1)-related coherent fields, we investigate the entanglement between the moving three-level atom and the SU(1,1)-related coherent fields by using the quantum-reduced entropy, and that between the SU(1,1)-related coherent fields by using the quantum relative entropy of entanglement. It is shown that the two kinds of entanglement are dependent on the atomic motion and exhibit the periodic evolution with a period of 2π/p. The maximal atom—field qutrit entanglement state can be prepared, and the entanglement preservation of the SU(1,1)-related coherent fields can be realized in the interacting process via the appropriate selection of system parameters and interaction time.

Quantum Entanglement in a System of Two Spatially Separated Atoms Coupled to the Thermal Reservoir

We study quantum entanglement between two spatially separated atoms coupled to the thermal reservoir. The influences of the initial state of the system, the atomic frequency difference and the mean number of the thermal field on the entanglement are examined. The results show that the maximum of the entanglement obtained with nonidentical atoms is greater than that obtained with identical atoms. The degree of entanglement is progressively decreased with the increase of the thermal noise. Interestingly, the two atoms can be easily entangled even when the two atoms are initially prepared in the most mixed states.

Stationary entanglement between two spatially separated atoms driven by a coherent laser field

This paper studies quantum entanglement between two spatially separated atoms driven by a coherent laser field in the dissipative process of spontaneous emission. It is shown that the entanglement strongly depends on the detuning of the laser frequency from atomic transition frequency, the interatomic separation and the Rabi frequency of the coherent laser field. A considerable amount of steady state entanglement can be obtained near Δ= —α (i.e., the dipole-dipole interaction and the detuning cancel out mutually) for small atomic separation and large Rabi frequency of the coherent laser field.

Teleportation for an Ionic Entangled Internal State by Entanglement Swapping

We present an effective scheme to teleport an unknown ionic entangled internal state via trapped ions without joint Bell-state measurement. In the constructed quantum channel process, we adopt entanglement swapping to avoid decrease of entanglement during the distribution of particles. Thus our scheme provides new prospects for quantum teleportation over longer distance. The distinct advantages of our scheme are that our scheme is insensitive to heating of vibrational mode and can be generalized to teleport an N-ion electronic entangled GHZ class state. Furthermore, in our scheme the success probability can reach 1.

A scheme for conditional quantum phase gate via bimodal cavity and a Λ-type three-level atom

We propose a scheme to implement a two-qubit conditional quantum phase gate for the intracavity field via a single three-level Λ-type atom driven by two modes in a high-Q cavity. The quantum information is encoded on the Fock states of the bimodal cavity. The gates averaged fidelity is expected to reach 99.8%.

Scheme for implementing quantum dense coding with four-particle decoherence-free states in an ion trap

This paper proposes an experimentally feasible scheme for implementing quantum dense coding of trapped-ion system in decoherence-free states. As the phase changes due to time evolution of components with different eigenenergies of quantum superposition are completely frozen, quantum dense coding based on this model would be perfect. The scheme is insensitive to heating of vibrational mode and Bell states can be exactly distinguished via detecting the ionic state.

A scheme of quantum phase gate for trapped ion

We propose a scheme to implement two-qubit controlled quantum phase gate(CQPG) via a single trapped two-level ion located in the standing wave field of a quantum cavity, in which the trap works beyond the Lamb–Dicke limit. When the light field is resonant with the atomic transition |g> ↔ |e> of the ion located at the antinode of the standing wave, we can perform CQPG between the internal and external states of the trapped ion; while the frequency of the light field is chosen to be resonant with the first red sideband of the collective vibrational mode of the ion located at the node of the standing wave, we can perform CQPG between the cavity mode and the collective vibrational mode of the trapped ion. Neither the Lamb–Dicke approximation nor the assistant classical laser is needed. Also we can generate a GHZ state if assisted with a classical laser.

A Scheme of Conditional Quantum Phase Gate for Dissipative Cavity QED System

We propose a scheme to implement a two-qubit conditional quantum phase gate via a single mode cavity and a cascade four-level atom assisted by a classical laser. The quantum information is encoded on the Fock states of the cavity mode and the two metastable ground states of the atom. Even under the condition of systematic dissipations, this scheme can also be realized with fidelity of 98.6% and success probability of 0.767.

Three-body entanglement induced by spontaneous emission in a three two-level atoms system

We study three-body entanglement induced by spontaneous emission in a three two-level atoms system by using the entanglement tensor approach. The results show that the amount of entanglement is strongly dependent on the initial state of the system and the species of atoms. The three-body entanglement is the result of the coherent superposition of the two-body entanglements. The larger the two-body entanglement is, the stronger the three-body entanglement is. On the other hand, if there exists a great difference in three two-body entanglement measures, the three-body entanglement is very weak. We also find that the maximum of the two-body entanglement obtained with nonidentical atoms is greater than that obtained with identical atoms via adjusting the difference in atomic frequency.
