Entanglement dynamics and population inversion of a two-qubit system in two cavities coupled with optical fiber in the presence of two-photon transition

Abstract

In this paper, the entanglement between two qubits that exist in two distinct cavities which are connected by an optical fiber is investigated by using the concurrence, while two-photon transitions and Kerr medium effect are also considered. Each cavity contains a qubit and a single-mode quantized field. The appearance of entanglement between the two qubits in the separate cavities originates from the presence of optical fiber. The obtained numerical results of the considered system show that, if the Kerr medium is large enough, the initial values of entanglement between the two qubits (which may have the maximum possible value, i.e. 1) can be approximately protected from the large amplitude fluctuations, so that acceptable stability is created. Also, qubit-field coupling and detuning effects are investigated and it is observed that symmetric coupling results in more stability of entanglement. Eventually, atomic population inversion is also studied and it is observed that it is controllable by considering different parameters.
