Robust quantum entanglement and teleportation in the tetrapartite spin-1/2 square clusters: Theoretical study on the effect of a cyclic four-spin exchange

Abstract

The whole entanglement measure so-called geometric Π4 average of tangles and bipartite entanglement of the antiferromagnetic spin-1/2 XXX Heisenberg model on a tetranuclear square cluster with cyclic four-spin interaction are rigorously examined by the help of thermal negativities. The model comprises two nearest-neighbor exchange couplings J1 and J2 such that J1≫J2. When the cyclic four-spin exchange is zero, the maximum value of whole entanglement Π4 is achieved at low enough temperatures and relatively high magnetic fields (B≈J1). Also, maximum bipartite entanglement between pair spins with exchange coupling J1 is achievable at high temperature and high magnetic field. This quantity remains alive for sufficiently high temperature and high magnetic field values comparable with the relevant exchange coupling J1. A nonzero value of the cyclic four-spin exchange notably enhances the degree of the whole entanglement, while it weakens the bipartite entanglement degree. We demonstrate that the whole entanglement reaches an unconventional minimum at a special parameter region of cyclic four-spin exchange almost ten order of magnitude smaller than J1, where the system is in a quantum antiferromagnetic state. The real complex [Cu4L4(H2O)4](ClO4)4 as a strong antiferromagnetic tetranuclear square compound provides us an experimental representative to estimate the strength of the whole and bipartite entanglements at high enough temperature. It is demonstrated that the entanglement negativities of this complex are yet depend on the considered cyclic four-spin interaction even though its magnitude is significantly smaller than J1. We realize that the possibility of quantum teleportation through a couple of discrete Cu4II complexes would solely happen for the magnetic fields lower than a critical value. It is also demonstrated that enhancing the cyclic four-spin exchange results in diminishing the average fidelity. Moreover, we conclude that the quantum Fisher information investigated for the pair of spins with exchange interaction J1 reaches its minimum close to the critical magnetic field at which a ground-state phase transition occurs from highly entangled state to separable one.
