Quantum entanglement and drifting generated by an AC field resonant with frequency-doubled Bloch oscillations of correlated particles

We show that initially localized and uncorrelated two-particles quantum wavepackets evolving in a one-dimensional discrete lattice become strongly entangled while drifting under the action of an harmonic AC field resonant with doubled Bloch oscillations promoted by a static DC field. Although partial entanglement is achieved when the AC field is resonant with the single-particle Bloch oscillations, it is strongly limited by the survival of anti-correlated unbounded states. We further show that the phase dependence of the wavepacket centroid velocity is similar to the semiclassical behavior depicted by a single-particle. However, the drift velocity exhibits a non-trivial non-monotonic dependence on the interaction strength, vanishing in the limit of uncorrelated particles, that unveils its competing influence on unbounded and bounded states.
