Abstract In this work, our prime objective is to study non-locality and long range effect of two body correlation using quantum entanglement from various information theoretic measure in the static patch of de Sitter space using a two body Open Quantum System (OQS). The OQS is described by a system of two entangled atoms, surrounded by a thermal bath, which is modelled by a massless probe scalar field. Firstly, we partially trace over the bath field and construct the Gorini Kossakowski Sudarshan Lindblad (GSKL) master equation, which describes the time evolution of the reduced subsystem density matrix. This GSKL master equation is characterized by two components, these are-Spin chain interaction Hamiltonian and the Lindbladian. To fix the form of both of them, we compute the Wightman functions for probe massless scalar field. Using this result alongwith the large time equilibrium behaviour we obtain the analytical solution for reduced density matrix. Further using this solution we evaluate various entanglement measures, namely Von-Neumann entropy, R$$e'$$e′nyi entropy, logarithmic negativity, entanglement of formation, concurrence and quantum discord for the two atomic subsystem on the static patch of De-Sitter space. Finally, we have studied violation of Bell-CHSH inequality, which is the key ingredient to study non-locality in primordial cosmology.

ABSTRACTWe present a density-matrix approach for the description of nonequilibrium carrier dynamics in optically excited semiconductor quantum dots, that explicitly accounts for exciton-exciton as well as exciton-carrier interactions. Within this framework, we analyze few-particle effects in the optical spectra and provide a consistent description of additional peaks appearing at high photoexcitation density. We discuss possible applications of such optical nonlinearities in future coherent-control experiments.

AbstractWe show how to compute the optical response of a Quantum Disk (QDisk) to an electromagnetic wave as a function of the incident wave polarization, in the energetic region of interband transitions. Both the TM and TE polarization in guided-wave geometry are analyzed. The method uses the microscopic calculation of Quantum Disk eigenfunctions and the macroscopic real density matrix approach to compute the effective QDisk susceptibility, taking into account the valence band structure of the QDisk material and the Coulomb interaction between the electron and the hole. Analytical expressions for the QDisk susceptibility are obtained for a certain model electron — hole potential. Using these expressions, all optical functions can be computed. Results for the absorption coefficient are computed for InAs/GaAs QDisks. Fair agreement with experiments is obtained.

Based on the density-matrix approach and iterative treatment, a detailed procedure for the calculation of the linear and nonlinear intersubband refractive index changes (RICs) in wurtzite GaN-based coupling quantum wells (CQWs) is given. The simple analytical formulas for electronic eigenstates and the linear and third-order nonlinear RICs in the systems are also deduced. Numerical result on a typical AlGaN / GaN CQW shows that the linear and nonlinear RICs sensitively depend on the structural parameters of the CQW system as well as the doped fraction of nitride semicondutor.
