Abstract
Entanglement is an important ingredient for quantum information processing. We discuss some sources of entanglement, namely a beam splitter and a thermal field. For the generation of entangled continuous-variable states, we consider a beam splitter and find some conditions for input fields to see entanglement in the output. While a beam splitter is a unitary device to generate an entangled state for a bipartite continuous-variable system, a thermal field is shown to mediate entanglement of two qubits.
