We consider a ferromagnetic Heisenberg/XY spin chain, both numerically and analytically, and two mechanisms to generate a phase shift, the Aharonov-Casher effect and the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction. In both cases, the maximum attainable entanglement is shown to be significantly enhanced, suggesting its potential usefulness in quantum information processing.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2007-01-24T06:40:50.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "entanglement transfer", "phase shift-control", "ferromagnetic heisenberg/xy spin chain", "enhancement", "transferrable two-spin entanglement" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
