Abstract

We have studied dynamical properties of an exactly solvable quantum coupled double-well (DW) systems with Razavy's hyperbolic potential. With the use of four kinds of initial wavepackets, the correlation function Γ(t)\Gamma(t) and the concurrence C(t)C(t) which is a typical measure of the entanglement in two qubits, are calculated. We obtain the orthogonality time τ\tau which signifies a time interval for an initial state to evolve to its orthogonal state, and the temporal average of C(t)C(t), CavC_{av} (=C(t)2)(=\sqrt{\langle C(t)^2 \rangle}). The coupling dependence of τ\tau and the concurrence [CavC_{av} or C(0)C(0)], and the relation between τ\tau and the concurrence are investigated. Our calculations have shown that the evolution speed measured by τ1\tau^{-1} is not necessarily increased with increasing the concurrence in coupled DW systems.
