Abstract

By means of the measure of entanglement called "concurrence" we study the entanglement in Heisenberg dimer single molecular magnets V4+ with a strong magnetic field and find that thermal entanglement exits for both ferromagnetic (FM) and antiferromagnetic (AFM) cases. In FM case entanglement vanishes for anisotropic parameter λ = 0 while in AFM case, entanglement exits in the whole region of anisotropic parameter 0 ≤ λ ≤ 1. Entanglement variations with anisotropic parameter λ, magnetic field B and temperature T are evaluated. We find a critical magnetic field at which the concurrence changes sharply from zero to maximum entanglement.
