We propose and analyze a scheme by which a many-particle system can be prepared in highly entangled wave-packet states. One of the particles is prepared initially in a quantum superposition of multiple coherent states and then coupled via a quadratic interaction Hamiltonian to a number of other particles. The system evolves into a highly entangled wave-packet state. An appropriate measure of this time-dependent entanglement is given. This scheme is applicable to a number of systems of interest in quantum-information science.
