Entanglement of two dipole-coupled qubits interacting with a detuned cavity thermal field

Abstract

This paper studies the entanglement properties in a system of two dipole-coupled natural or artificial two-level atoms not-resonantly interacting with an intensive single-mode thermal field for coherent initial atomic states. The results show that the entanglement is weaken due to the initial atomic coherence for model with detuning in contrast to the model with resonant atom-field interaction. For non-dissipative model under consideration the detuning results also in decreasing of the atom-atom entanglement in time for separable initial atomic state and intensive cavity thermal field.
