摘要
Recently, there has been considerable interest in investigating quantum entanglement in two-electron systems, such as two-electron model atoms and quantum dots. In this work, the quantum entanglement of the helium atom and helium-like ions are explored using the two-electron wave functions constructed by the B-spline basis. As a measure of the spatial entanglement, the linear entropy of the reduced density matrix is investigated for the ground state and the singlet excited 1sns(1)S states, with n = 2-10, of the helium atom. The variation of the spatial entanglement with the nuclear charges Z = 2-15 for the helium-like ions is reported. Results are compared with the existing predictions. DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevA.87.022316
