Berry Phases and Entanglement of a Two Spin-1/2 Model with Dzyaloshinski-Moriya Interaction in Magnetic Fields

Abstract

We show that the entanglement (as quantified by the concurrence) and Berry phases of the adiabatic quantum states vanish for a two spin-1/2 system with Dzyaloshinski-Moriya (DM) interaction, while one of the spins is driven by a time-varing rotating magnetic field and the other one is coupled with a strong static magnetic field. The system is described by the Heisenberg XX model and the static field is in the direction of the rotation axis. We also investigate that how the concurrence and Berry phases depend on the DM interaction, coupling coefficient and the static magnetic field. In addition, we show that reversing the sign of the static magnetic field can cause exchange of the Berry phases and entanglement between the adiabatic states. Finally it is shown that each energy level approach causes jumps or cusp-like behaviour in the Berry phases and the concurrences.
