Asymptotic discord and entanglement of nonresonant harmonic oscillators under weak and strong dissipation
Abstract
In this work, we calculate the exact asymptotic quantum correlations between two interacting nonresonant harmonic oscillators in a common Ohmic bath. We derive analytical formulas for the covariances, fully describing any Gaussian stationary state of the system, and use them to study discord and entanglement in the strong- and weak-dissipation regimes. We discuss the rich structure of the discord of the stationary separable states arising in the strong-dissipation regime. Also under strong dissipation, when the modes are not mechanically coupled, these may entangle only through their interaction with the common environment. Interestingly enough, this stationary entanglement assisted by dissipation is only present within a finite band of frequencies and increases with the dissipation rate. Robust entanglement between detuned oscillators is also observed at low temperature.
