Dissipative Quantum Systems: Reservoir‐Mediated Enhancement of Quantum Fisher Information and Non‐Classical Correlations

Abstract

ABSTRACT We study the steady‐state quantum Fisher information (QFI) and several quantum resources entanglement, quantum coherence, and quantum discord for a pair of coupled qubits interacting with either bosonic or fermionic reservoirs. Using the Bloch–Redfield master equation beyond the secular approximation, we derive analytical expressions for the steady‐state density matrix and analyze how equilibrium and nonequilibrium conditions shape the resulting quantum correlations. In thermal equilibrium, the quantum resources display distinct behaviors depending on the bath statistics, with fermionic reservoirs enabling stronger stationary correlations due to particle‐exchange processes. Under nonequilibrium driving, generated either by a temperature imbalance or by a chemical potential difference, the system develops steady‐state coherence and enhanced discord, while entanglement and QFI exhibit non‐monotonic dependence governed by the interplay between coherence generation and population mixing. Our results identify the regimes in which steady‐state metrological performance can be optimized, and they provide general guidelines for enhancing quantum correlations in dissipative two‐qubit platforms.
