Entanglement between a two-level atom and spontaneous emission field in anisotropic photonic crystal
|
Abstract:
By means of Von Neumann entropy and Schmidt number K, we study the time evolution properties of the entanglement between a two-level atom and spontaneous emission field in anisotropic photonic crystal. The evolution properties of the atom-field entanglement are directly related to the relative position of the upper level from the band edge. The atom-field entanglement can keep steady when the atomic upper level is within the band gap. The atom-field entanglement increases to the maximum value firstly and then decay to zero when the atomic upper level is within the transmitting band. The atom-field entanglement also depends on the initial state of the atom. We can control the time evolution properties of the atom-field entanglement by choosing special atomic initial state and the relative position of the upper level from the band edge.
