Abstract

We study the effect of laser phase noise on the generation of stationary entanglement between an intracavity optical mode and a mechanical resonator in a generic cavity optomechanical system. We show that one can realize robust stationary optomechanical entanglement even in the presence of non-negligible laser phase noise. We also show that the explicit form of the laser phase noise spectrum is relevant, and discuss its effect on both optomechanical entanglement and ground-state cooling of the mechanical resonator.

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

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.

Effects of laser phase noise on optomechanical entanglement in the presence of a nonlinear Kerr downconverter

Rizwan Ahmed, Shahid Qamar

Abstract In this paper, we consider an optomechanical system with a Kerr downconversion element in the presence of pump laser phase noise (LPN). In particular, we study the effect of phase fluctuations on entanglement generation in the presence of a nonlinear Kerr downconverter. The steady-state entanglement spectrum depends upon the parametric gain and phase fluctuations associated with the driving field. Interestingly, our results show that optomechanical entanglement exists even for non-zero LPN. It has been shown that the presence of Kerr downconverter nonlinearity improves the robustness of the entanglement against the input LPN.

Optomechanical entanglement in the presence of laser phase noise

Roohollah Ghobadi, Alireza Bahrampour, Christoph Simon

We study the simplest optomechanical system in the presence of laser phase noise (LPN) using the covariance matrix formalism. We show that for any LPN model with a finite correlation time, the destructive effect of the phase noise is especially strong in the bistable regime. This explains why ground-state cooling is still possible in the presence of phase noise, as it happens far away from the bistable regime. We also show that the optomechanical entanglement is strongly affected by phase noise.

Quantum effects in optomechanical systems

The search for experimental demonstrations of the quantum behavior of macroscopic mechanical resonators is a fastly growing field of investigation and recent results suggest that the generation of quantum states of resonators with a mass at the microgram scale is within reach. In this chapter we give an overview of two important topics within this research field: cooling to the motional ground state, and the generation of entanglement involving mechanical, optical and atomic degrees of freedom. We focus on optomechanical systems where the resonator is coupled to one or more driven cavity modes by the radiation pressure interaction. We show that robust stationary entanglement between the mechanical resonator and the output fields of the cavity can be generated, and that this entanglement can be transferred to atomic ensembles placed within the cavity. These results show that optomechanical devices are interesting candidates for the realization of quantum memories and interfaces for continuous variable quantum communication networks.

Effect of Phase Noise on the Stationary Entanglement of an Optomechanical System with Kerr Medium

Dan Zhang, Qiang Zheng

We theoretically investigate the effect of phase noise on the stationary entanglement of an optomechanical system, which has the additional Kerr medium in the cavity. There are two kinds of interactions in the system, photon-mirror interaction and photon-photon interaction. We find that the optomechanical entanglement can be suppressed by the phase noise of the pumping laser and Kerr interaction of photons. We also find that Kerr interaction can make the phase-noise-induced double peak of the stationary entanglement change to a single peak.

Phase-Controlled Entanglement in a Four-Mode Optomechanical System

Cheng Jiang, Hongxia Lu, Zhangyin Zhai +1 more

We present a scheme for realizing phase-controlled entanglement in a microwave optomechanical system comprising two microwave cavities and two mechanical oscillators. Under specific driving conditions, we show that this optomechanical interface can be exploited to generate simultaneously the stationary cavity–cavity entanglement, mechanical–mechanical entanglement, and cavity–mechanical entanglement. Due to the closed loop interaction, we find that the entanglement can be controlled flexibly by tuning the phase difference between the optomechanical coupling strengths. The dependence of the entanglement on the amplitudes of the optomechanical coupling strengths is also explored in detail. Moreover, the bipartite entanglements are robust against temperature, and it is shown that the mechanical oscillators are cooled to the ground state in the parameter regimes for observing entanglement.
