Engineering a stationary entanglement between atoms or ions placed at small distances is a challenging problem in quantum information science. In this paper, the stationary and dynamics of entanglement in a system of dipole-coupled qubits interacting with a single-mode optical cavity in the strong coupling regime are theoretically investigated. We find that the entanglement in the steady state can be induced and tuned in nonresonance cases by considering the dipole-dipole interaction (DDI) between the qubits. We also point out that the novel measure used in this study can quantify the net multiqubit entanglement in the system. By increasing the DDI intensity, the behavior of the system depends on the number of qubits. Interestingly, with only two qubits, the amounts of steady-state entanglement enhances as the DDI intensity increases. For a system with more than two qubits, we find that DDI in the weak range of intensity plays a constructive role in the entanglement between qubits. However, it could destroy the stationary entanglement as the interaction between qubits intensifies. The entanglement of a system consisting of more than two qubits tends to disappear for an ensemble of qubits with smaller interatomic distances that lead to stronger dipolar interaction between nonadjacent qubits. Finally, we study the atomic population transfer as well as the transmitted spectrum.

Abstract
Engineering a stationary entanglement between atoms or ions placed at small distances is a challenging problem in quantum information science. In this paper, the stationary and dynamics of entanglement in a system of dipole-coupled qubits interacting with a single-mode optical cavity in the strong coupling regime are theoretically investigated. We find that the entanglement in the steady state can be induced and tuned in nonresonance cases by considering the dipole-dipole interaction (DDI) between the qubits. We also point out that the novel measure used in this study can quantify the net multiqubit entanglement in the system. By increasing the DDI intensity, the behavior of the system depends on the number of qubits. Interestingly, with only two qubits, the amounts of steady-state entanglement enhances as the DDI intensity increases. For a system with more than two qubits, we find that DDI in the weak range of intensity plays a constructive role in the entanglement between qubits. However, it could destroy the stationary entanglement as the interaction between qubits intensifies. The entanglement of a system consisting of more than two qubits tends to disappear for an ensemble of qubits with smaller interatomic distances that lead to stronger dipolar interaction between nonadjacent qubits. Finally, we study the atomic population transfer as well as the transmitted spectrum.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
