Abstract

A system of two interacting qubits off-resonantly coupled to a common non-Markovian reservoir at zero temperature is analyzed. Comparing with the results in Markovian case, we find that much higher values of entanglement can be obtained for an initially factorized state of the two-qubit system. The maximal value of the entanglement increases as the strength of dipole-dipole interaction and detuning grow. Moreover, the entanglement induced by non-Markovian reservoir is more robust against the asymmetrical couplings between the two qubits and the reservoir.
