Thermal entanglement of a two-qubit Heisenberg XXZ chain in the presence of different Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya (DM) anisotropic antisymmetric interactions and entanglement teleportation using two independent Heisenberg chains as quantum channel are investigated. It is found that the anisotropic coupling coefficient Jz (z-component exchange constant) and DM interactions can excite the entanglement, and x-component DM interaction Dx has a more remarkable influence than the z-axis DM interaction Dz for exchange constant J > 0 (antiferromagnetic) case, which is contrary to coupling coefficient J < 0 (ferromagnetic) case. The output entanglement and fidelity increase with increasing z-axis coupling parameter Jz for both the antiferromagnetic J > 0 case and ferromagnetic J < 0 case. By introducing the different DM interactions, it is superior to teleportate initial state by using the Dz interaction in the model for J > 0 case. But for J < 0 case, the Dx interaction is better, and the output concurrence and fidelity can reach the maximum value 1 with suitable Dx.
