Dissipation-driven entanglement between qubits mediated by plasmonic nanoantennas
arXiv:1403.0794 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.89.235413
Abstract
A novel scheme is proposed to generate a maximally entangled state between two qubits by means of a dissipation-driven process. To this end, we entangle the quantum states of qubits that are mutually coupled by a plasmonic nanoantenna. Upon enforcing a weak spectral asymmetry in the properties of the qubits, the steady-state probability to obtain a maximally entangled, subradiant state approaches unity. This occurs despite the high losses associated to the plasmonic nanoantenna that are usually considered as being detrimental. The entanglement scheme is shown to be quite robust against variations in the transition frequencies of the quantum dots and deviations in their prescribed position with respect to the nanoantenna. Our work paves the way for novel applications in the field of quantum computation in highly integrated optical circuits.
