Description

We review recent theoretical investigations on the two-particle Aharonov-Bohm effect and its relation to entanglement production and detection. The difficulties of the entanglement detection due to dephasing and finite temperature are discussed regarding a recent experimental realization of a two-particle Aharonov-Bohm interferometer [15]. We also discuss a theoretical proposal for a two-particle Aharonov-Bohm interferometer, which as against the finite bias setup is driven with dynamical single-electron sources allowing for the tunable production of time-bin entanglement.
