Complete Conditions for Entanglement Transfer
Mauro Paternostro, Wonmin Son, M. S. Kim · Physical Review Letters · 2004
We investigate the conditions to entangle two qubits interacting with local environments driven by a continuous-variable correlated field. We find the conditions to transfer the entanglement from the driving field to the qubits both in dynamical and steady-state cases. We see how the quantum correlations initially present in the driving field play a critical role in the entanglement-transfer process. The system we treat is general enough to be adapted to different physical setups.
