    Abstract

    By means of concurrence, we investigate the dynamics of entanglement between two initially separate atoms in succession passing through a cavity and their interaction with a Fock state field. We then analyze the effects of the atomic coherence, photon number, and atomic motion on the time evolution of atom-atom entanglement. The results show that there can be entanglement between two separate atoms, and that the threshold time for the creation of the entanglement is controllable by the photon number, atomic motion, and field-mode structure.
