Hierarchy of temporal quantum correlations using a correlated spontaneous emission laser.

Abstract

As an active quantum system, the correlated spontaneous emission laser has many valuable applications in quantum information processing. Here, we report on temporal evolution of the quantum correlations such as quantum discord, entanglement, steering, and Bell non-locality for the field retrieved in the form of two-mode Gaussian state using a system of correlated spontaneous emission laser. We consider the initial modes of the cavity field as two independent arbitrary single-mode Gaussian states inside the cavity. The density matrix for the resulting cavity field is evaluated both analytically and numerically with respect to the time evolution of the laser system. The influences of the non-classicality and purity of the initial cavity modes, the Rabi frequency of the classical coupling field, and the cavity damping rates are studied thoroughly. We show explicitly that the boundaries for the four kinds of the temporal quantum correlations of the cavity field retrieved satisfy a strict hierarchy.
