Entanglement of a Laguerre-Gaussian cavity mode with a rotating mirror

Abstract

It has previously been shown theoretically that the exchange of linear momentum between the light field in an optical cavity and a vibrating end mirror can entangle the electromagnetic field with the vibrational motion of that mirror. In this paper we consider the rotational analog of this situation and show that radiation torque can similarly entangle a Laguerre-Gaussian cavity mode with a rotating end mirror. We examine the mirror-field entanglement as a function of ambient temperature, radiation detuning, and orbital angular momentum carried by the cavity mode.

Entanglement of two rotating mirrors coupled to a single Laguerre-Gaussian cavity mode

Zheng Chen, Jia‐Xin Peng, Jingjing Fu +1 more

We theoretically investigate the entanglement between two macroscopic rotating mirrors in a Laguerre-Gaussian (L-G) cavity, in which they exchange orbital angular momentum with a same L-G cavity mode, and we examine the influence of various factors such as angular frequencies of two mirrors, effective detuning, temperature and orbital angular momentum of L-G cavity mode on the entanglement. The results show that in some range of mirrors' angular frequencies the entanglement will appear and has strong robustness. And we also study the range of effective detuning and the minimum orbital angular momentum of the L-G cavity mode required to generate entanglement.

Rotational mirror–mirror entanglement via dissipative atomic reservoir in a double-Laguerre–Gaussian-cavity system

Fei Wang, Kang Shen, Jun Xu

Abstract We propose a new scheme to prepare macroscopic entanglement between two rotating mirrors using dissipative atomic reservoir in a double-Laguerre–Gaussian-cavity system. The two-level atomic system driven by a strong field, acts as a single pathway of Bogoliubov dissipation to push the two original cavity modes into the desirable entangled state under the near-resonant conditions. Successively, the photon–photon entanglement can be transferred to mirror–mirror entanglement through the exchange of orbital angular momentum. In essence, the macroscopic entanglement is originated from the dissipative atomic reservoir rather than the radiation torque, thereby it is usually robust against environmental noises. The present scheme provides a feasible way to realize stable entanglement between spatially separated mirrors with high capacity, which may find potential applications in remote quantum communications.

Tripartite entanglement in a Laguerre–Gaussian rotational-cavity system with an yttrium iron garnet sphere

Hao-Jie Cheng, Shu-Jie Zhou, Jia‐Xin Peng +4 more

We propose a scheme that can realize the tripartite entanglement between the Laguerre–Gaussian (L–G) cavity mode, magnon mode, and phonon (rotating) mode in a hybrid rotating cavity optomechanical system with an yttrium iron garnet sphere inside the cavity. The excited magnon mode and the L–G cavity mode are related through the magnetic dipole interaction, and the L–G cavity mode can exchange orbital angular momentum (OAM) with the rotating mirror. In this way, the magnon mode and the rotating mirror are connected through the L–G cavity mode. Our results show that physical parameters such as OAM of the L–G cavity mode, detuning of the magnon mode, and effective detuning of the cavity mode play different roles in establishing entanglements.

Enhancing the Steady-State Entanglement between a Laguerre–Gaussian-Cavity Mode and a Rotating Mirror via Cross-Kerr Nonlinearity

Guilin Lai, Sumei Huang, Li Deng +1 more

Quantum entanglement will play an important role in future quantum technologies. Here, we theoretically study the steady-state entanglement between a cavity field and a macroscopic rotating mirror in a Laguerre–Gaussian-(LG)-cavity optomechanical system with cross-Kerr nonlinearity. Logarithmic negativity is used to quantify the steady-state entanglement between the cavity and mechanical modes. We analyze the impacts of the cross-Kerr coupling strength, the cavity detuning, the input laser power, the topological charge of the LG-cavity mode, and the temperature of the environment on the steady-state optomechanical entanglement. We find that cross-Kerr nonlinearity can significantly enhance steady-state optomechanical entanglement and make steady-state optomechanical entanglement more robust against the temperature of the thermal environment.

Improving the Stationary Entanglement of a Laguerre–Gaussian Cavity Mode with a Rotating Mirror via Nonlinear Cross-Kerr Interactions and Parametric Interactions

Guilin Lai, Sumei Huang, Li Deng +1 more

Quantum entanglement is essential in performing many quantum information tasks. Here, we theoretically investigate the stationary entanglement between a Laguerre-Gaussian (LG) cavity field and a rotating end mirror in an LG-cavity optorotational system with a nonlinear cross-Kerr (CK) interaction and a degenerate optical parametric amplifier (OPA). We calculate the logarithmic negativity of the system to quantify the stationary entanglement. We examine the influence of various system parameters such as the cavity detuning, the strength of the nonlinear CK interaction, the parametric gain and phase of the OPA, the power of the input Gaussian laser, the topological charge of the LG-cavity field, the mass of the rotating end mirror, and the ambient temperature on the stationary entanglement. Under the combined effect of the nonlinear CK interaction and the OPA, we find that the stationary entanglement can be substantially enhanced at lower Gaussian laser powers, smaller topological charges of the LG-cavity field, and larger masses of the rotating end mirror. We show that the combination of the nonlinear CK interaction and the OPA can make the stationary entanglement more robust against the ambient temperature.

Effect of laser phase noise on the steady-state field-mirror entanglement and ground-state cooling in a Laguerre-Gaussian optorotational system

Yupeng Chen, Sumei Huang, Li Deng +1 more

Cavity optomechanical systems are considered as one of the best platforms for studying macroscopic quantum phenomena. In this paper, we studied the effect of laser phase noise on the steady-state entanglement between a cavity mode and a rotating mirror in a Laguerre-Gaussian (L-G) optorotational system. We found that the effect of laser phase noise was non-negligible on the field-mirror entanglement especially at a larger input power and a larger angular momentum. We also investigated the influence of laser phase noise on the ground-state cooling of the rotating mirror. In the presence of laser phase noise, the ground-state cooling of the rotating mirror can still be realized within a range of input powers.
