Dynamics of Entanglement for One-Dimensional Spin Systems in an External Time-Dependent Magnetic Field

Zhen Huang, Sabre Kais

abstract: We study the dynamics of entanglement for the XY-model, one-dimensional spin systems coupled through nearest neighbor exchange interaction and subject to an external time-dependent magnetic field. Using the two-site density matrix, we calculate the time-dependent entanglement of formation between nearest neighbor qubits. We investigate the effect of varying the temperature, the anisotropy parameter and the external time-dependent magnetic field on the entanglement. We have found that the entanglement can be localized between nearest neighbor qubits for certain values of the external time-dependent magnetic field. Moreover, as known for the magnetization of this model, the entanglement shows nonergodic behavior, it does not approach its equilibrium value at the infinite time limit.
