Entangling two unequal atoms through a common bath

preprint2009arXivOpen access

Abstract

The evolution of two, non-interacting two-level atoms immersed in a weakly coupled bath can be described by a refined, time coarse grained Markovian evolution, still preserving complete positivity. We find that this improved reduced dynamics is able to entangle the two atoms even when their internal frequencies are unequal, an effect which appears impossible in the standard weak coupling limit approach. We study in detail this phenomenon for an environment made of quantum fields.
