Quantum Energy Transport and Entanglement in Plasmonic Environments
Master equations form the basis for the theoretical treatment of open quantum systems and also allow to treat the coupling of quantum systems to realistic environments using the Green's function method. We apply this method to study energy transport (Förster resonance energy transfer, FRET) and entanglement of quantum systems in dissipative environments (like an atomic layer of graphene as shown in the figure). In particular, we investigate energy transport and entanglement in dissipative plasmonic environments.
