Persistent entanglement of valley exciton qubits in transition metal dichalcogenides integrated into a bimodal optical cavity

We report dissipative dynamics of two valley excitons residing in the $K$ and $K^\prime$-valleys of bare WSe$_2$ monolayer and the one being integrated into a bimodal optical cavity. In the former, only when the exciton-field detunings in the $K$ and $K^\prime$-valleys are rigorously equal (resonant detuning), partially entangled stationary states can be created. Otherwise the concurrence of exciton qubits turns to zero. Remarkably, in the latter (the WSe$_2$ monolayer in a bimodal optical cavity), the transfers of entanglement from one subsystem (exciton/light) to the other (light/exciton) take place. Hence a finite stationary concurrence of exciton qubits is always generated, independent of whether the exciton-field detuning in two valleys is resonant or non-resonant. In addition, it can even reach as high as 1 (maximally entangled state of two valley excitons). Since there no real system which has a strictly resonant detuning, an immersion of the WSe$_2$ monolayer in a bimodal optical cavity provides an opportunity to overcome the challenge facing by the bare WSe$_2$, opening a novel realm of potential qubits.
