TL;DR

This paper investigates how squeezed radiation in a cavity induces entanglement between atoms and radiation, revealing that increased squeezing enhances cavity radiation but can diminish atom-radiation entanglement.

Contribution

It introduces a method to analyze spontaneous atom-radiation entanglement in a squeezed cavity environment, highlighting the effects of squeezing on entanglement dynamics.

Findings

Cavity radiation exhibits squeezing due to the squeezed input.

Cavity radiation intensity increases with squeeze parameter and interaction time.

Squeezed radiation can significantly destroy atom-radiation entanglement.

Abstract

Analysis of the spontaneously induced correlation on atom-radiation entanglement in an ensemble of two-level atoms initially prepared in the upper level and placed in a cavity containing a squeezed radiation employing the method of evaluating the coherent-state propagator is presented. It is found that the cavity radiation exhibits squeezing which is directly attributed to the squeezed radiation in the cavity. The intensity of the cavity radiation increases with the squeeze parameter and interaction time. It is also shown that substantial degree of entanglement between the atomic states and radiation mode exits at a particular time that depends on the coupling constant and squeeze parameter. We come to understand that though the squeezed radiation is directly accountable for the cavity squeezing, it significantly destroys the atom-radiation entanglement.
