title: Quantum coherence and quantum correlation of two qubits mediated by a one-dimensional plasmonic waveguide.
abstract: We investigate the dynamics of quantum coherence and quantum correlation of two qubits mediated by a one-dimensional plasmonic waveguide. The analytical expression of the dissipative dynamics of the two qubits is obtained for the initial X state. The dynamical behaviors of the quantum coherence and quantum correlation are shown to be largely dependent on the parameters of the initial state. Starting from a product state, quantum coherence and quantum correlation can be induced by the plasmonic waveguide. Under continuous drivings, steady quantum correlation can be obtained at specific distance larger than the operating wavelength and large values of steady quantum coherence are attainable at arbitrary distance. The detuning effect on the dissipation-driven generation of steady quantum coherence and quantum correlation is also explored.
