Abstract

Following a recent proposal (Muschik et al 2011 Phys. Rev. A 83 052312), engineered dissipative processes have been used for the generation of stable entanglement between two macroscopic atomic ensembles at room temperature (Krauter et al 2011 Phys. Rev. Lett. 107 080503). This experiment included the preparation of entangled states which are continuously available during a time interval of 1 h. Here, we present additional material, further-reaching data and an extension of the theory developed in Muschik et al (2011 Phys. Rev. A 83 052312). In particular, we show how the combination of the entangling dissipative mechanism with measurements can give rise to a substantial improvement of the generated entanglement in the presence of noise.
