Asymptotic Discord and Entanglement of Non-Resonant Harmonic Oscillators in an Equilibrium Environment
arXiv:1111.0806 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.86.012110
Abstract
In this work, we calculate the exact asymptotic quantum correlations between two interacting non-resonant harmonic oscillators in a common Ohmic bath. We derive \emph{analytical formulas} for the covariances, fully describing any Gaussian stationary state of the system, and use them to study discord and entanglement in the strong and weak dissipation regimes. We discuss the rich structure of the discord of the stationary separable states arising in the strong dissipation regime. Also under strong dissipation, when the modes are not mechanically coupled, these may entangle only through their interaction with the \emph{common} environment. Interestingly enough, this stationary entanglement is only present within a \emph{finite band of frequencies} and increases with the dissipation rate. In addition, robust entanglement between \emph{detuned} oscillators is observed at low temperature.
