Title: Stabilizing two-qubit entanglement by mimicking a squeezed environment

Journal Article · · Physical Review Research

It is well known that qubits immersed in a squeezed vacuum environment exhibit many exotic phenomena, including dissipative entanglement stabilization. Here we show that these effects only require interference between excitation and decay processes, and can be faithfully mimicked without nonclassical light using a simple classical temporal modulation. We present schemes that harness this idea to stabilize entanglement between two remote qubits coupled via a transmission line or waveguide, where either the qubit-waveguide coupling is modulated, or the qubits are directly driven. We analyze the resilience of these approaches against various imperfections and also characterize the trade-off between the speed and quality of entanglement stabilization. Our protocols are compatible with state-of-the-art cavity QED systems.
