Decoherence and entanglement dynamics in fluctuating fields

Abstract: We study pure phase damping of two qubits due to fluctuating fields. As frequently employed, decoherence is thus described in terms of random unitary (RU) dynamics, that is, a convex mixture of unitary transformations. Based on a separation of the dynamics into an average Hamiltonian and a noise channel, we are able to analytically determine the evolution of both entanglement and purity. This enables us to characterize the dynamics in a concurrence-purity (CP) diagram: We find that RU phase-damping dynamics se… Show more

“…Decoherence arises as a result of coupling of the desired system and quantum environment. Decoherence is the most important obstacle to use quantum states in larger and larger scale [4]. Phase damping channel is one type of decoherence in which non-diagonal elements of density matrix are altered due to the coupling of the system and environment; however, diagonal elements of density matrix remain unchanged.…”

“…In fact, the latter situation is often realized in real systems, especially in the case of large environments, high temperatures, or noise resulting from e. g. fluctiating semi-classical fields [13][14][15][16]. The distinction between entangling and non-entangling evolutions is not trivial in itself, since the non-entangling case is not limited to random unitary evolutions [1,[17][18][19][20][21], and a straightforward criterion for the generation of qubit-environment entanglement during pure dephasing has only recently been found [3].…”

“…For example, in the case of two-qubit system coupled to two local bosonic baths, a Markov environment typically induces both irreversible decoherence and disentanglement [15,16]. However, the non-Markovian environment with a finite memory time can assist in regenerating quantum coherence and entanglement in the system [17][18][19][20]. Some interesting physics induced by a non-Markovian environment has been studied extensively by employing an exact or an approximate non-Markovian master equation, which has many experimental applications in quantum device, quantum information, and quantum optics [21][22][23][24][25].…”
