Tripartite entanglement dynamics and entropic squeezing of a three-level atom interacting with a bimodal cavity field

Abstract: In this paper, we study the interaction between a Λ-type three-level atom and two quantized electromagnetic fields which are simultaneously injected in a bichromatic cavity surrounded by a Kerr medium in the presence of field–field interaction (parametric down conversion) and detuning parameters. By applying a canonical transformation, the introduced model is reduced to a well-known form of the generalized Jaynes–Cummings model. Under particular initial conditions which may be prepared for the atom and the field, the time evolution of the state vector of the entire system is analytically evaluated. Then, the dynamics of the atom is studied through the evolution of the atomic population inversion. In addition, two different measures of entanglement between the tripartite system (three entities make the system: two field modes and one atom), i.e., von Neumann and linear entropy are investigated. Also, two kinds of entropic uncertainty relations, from which entropy squeezing can be obtained, are discussed. In each case, the influences of the detuning parameters and Kerr medium on the above nonclassicality features are analyzed in detail via numerical results. It is illustrated that the amount of the above-mentioned physical phenomena can be tuned by choosing the evolved parameters, appropriately.

Construction of a nanostructure-based electrochemical sensor for voltammetric determination of bisphenol A.

Abstract: A novel carbon paste electrode modified with graphene oxide nanosheets and an ionic liquid (n-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluoro phosphate) was fabricated. The electrochemical study of the modified electrode, as well as its efficiency for voltammetric oxidation of bisphenol A, is described. The electrode was also employed to study the electrochemical oxidation of bisphenol A, using cyclic voltammetry, chronoamperometry, square wave voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy as diagnostic techniques. Square wave voltammetry exhibits a linear dynamic range from 9.0 × 10−8 to 2.5 × 10−4 M and a detection limit of 55.0 nM for bisphenol A. Finally, this new sensor was used for determination of bisphenol A in water samples using the standard addition method.
