Phys. Rev. B 75, 033402 (2007) [4 pages]Entanglement of a pair of atomic qubits near a carbon nanotubeReceived 8 November 2006; published 5 January 2007 We investigate the entanglement of quasi-one-dimensional atomic polariton states formed by atoms (ions) located close to or encapsulated inside carbon nanotubes and strongly coupled to the nanotube virtual photonic modes. Small-diameter metallic nanotubes are shown to result in sizable amounts of two-qubit atomic entanglement, which persists with no damping for very long times. © 2007 The American Physical Society URL:
