Entangled Phase States via Quantum Beam Splitter    [PDF]

M. Daoud, E. B. Choubabi

We study the entanglement effect of beam splitter on the temporally stable phase states. Specifically, we consider the eigenstates (phase states) of an unitary phase operator resulting from the polar decomposition of ladder operators of generalized Weyl--Heisenberg algebras possessing finite dimensional representation space. The linear entropy that measures the degree of entanglement at the output of the beam splitter is analytically obtained. We find that the entanglement is not only strongly dependent on the Hilbert space dimension but also quite related to strength the parameter ensuring the temporal stability of the phase states. Finally, we discuss the evolution of the entangled phase states.
