Dynamics of entanglement between a quantum dot spin qubit and a photon qubit inside a semiconductor high-Q nanocavity Article uri icon

abstract

  • We investigate in this paper the dynamics of entanglement between a QD spin qubit and a single photon qubit inside a quantumnetwork node, aswell as its robustness against various decoherence processes. First, the entanglement dynamics is considered without decoherence. In the small detuning regime (Δ = 78 μeV), there are three different conditions for maximum entanglement, which occur after 71, 93, and 116 picoseconds of interaction time. In the large detuning regime (Δ = 1.5meV), there is only one peak for maximum entanglement occurring at 625 picoseconds. Second, the entanglement dynamics is considered with decoherence by including the effects of spin-nucleus and hole-nucleus hyperfine interactions. In the small detuning regime, a decent amount of entanglement (35%25 entanglement) can only be obtained within 200 picoseconds of interaction. Afterward, all entanglement is lost. In the large detuning regime, a smaller amount of entanglement is realized, namely, 25%25. And, it lasts only within the first 300 picoseconds. Copyright © 2010 Hubert Pascal Seigneur et al.
