dc.descriptionWe investigate entanglement in a linear chain of $N$ polar molecules coupled by dipole interaction. In our model, nearest neighbour interaction predominate, and we compute entanglement with the help of a two-party correlation entanglement measure. We find that, in this system, only excited states are entangled. Moreover, when an electrostatic field is applied, energy levels crossings occur, changing significantly the system's entanglement properties. We make a systematic study of the entanglement dependency on the inter molecular distance separating pairs of molecules, different partitions of the chain and physical parameters as the temperature and the electrostatic field's intensity, showing that it persists for relatively high temperatures and changes its nature with varying field.
