Abstract

Several recent experiments have shown that long-range exchange interactions can determine collective magnetic ground states of nanostructures in bulk and on surfaces. The ability to generate and control entanglement in a system with long-range interaction will be of great importance for future quantum technology. An important step forward to reach this goal is the creation of entangled states for spins of distant magnetic atoms. Herein, the generation of long-distance entanglement between remote spins at large separations in bulk and on surface is studied theoretically, based on a quantum spin Hamiltonian and time-dependent Schrödinger equation for experimentally realized conditions. We demonstrate that long-distance entanglement can be generated between remote spins by using an appropriate quantum spin chain (a quantum mediator), composed by sets of antiferromagnetically coupled spin dimers. Ground state properties and quantum spin dynamics of entangled atoms are studied. We demonstrate that one can increase or suppress entanglement by adding a single spin in the mediator. The obtained result is explained by monogamy property of entanglement distribution inside a quantum spin system. We present a novel approach for non-local sensing of remote magnetic adatoms via spin entanglement.
