We discuss the evolution towards persistent entangled state in an atom–photon system. A maximally entangled state can be stabilized at a local minimum of the system by draining some energy, thus obtaining a persistent entangled state. This scheme can be realized in three-level, Λ type atomic systems since the third level is a meta-stable state. In particular, we compare dynamical description based on the exact and effective models. Some experimental realizations are discussed.
