This is done via Bell state measurement performing on the photons leaving the dissipative cavities. In the continuation, we introduce the concept of entangling power to measure the average of swapped entanglement over all possible pure initial states. Then, we present our results in two strong and weak coupling regimes and discuss the role of detuning parameter in each regime on the amount of swapped entanglement. We also determine the conditions in which the maximum amount of entanglement can be swapped between two qubits. It is revealed that despite of the presence of dissipation, it is possible to create long-living stationary entanglement between two qubits.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-07-27T05:04:50.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "entanglement swapping", "dissipative systems", "pure initial states", "swapped entanglement", "create long-living stationary entanglement" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 9, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
