Abstract

Output entanglement is a key element in quantum information processing. Here, we show how to obtain optimal entanglement between two filtered output fields in a three-mode optomechanical system. First, we obtain the key analytical expression of optimal time delay between the two filtered output fields, from which we can obtain the optimal coupling for output entanglement without time delay. In this case, our linearized analysis predicts that the entanglement saturates to an optimal value as the optomechanical coupling is increased. Furthermore, we obtain the optimal output entanglement with time delay. These results should be very helpful in conceiving new optomechanical schemes of quantum information processing with their efficiency depending critically on the degree of output entanglement.

Optimizing the output-photon entanglement in multimode optomechanical systems

Zhi Jiao Deng, Xiao-Bo Yan, Ying-Dan Wang +1 more

Entangled light beams are important resources for quantum information processing. For some applications like teleportation, only the entanglement between two wave packets (two harmonic oscillators) is needed. So the calculation of output-photon entanglement involves projecting continuous output modes onto wave-packet modes by filter functions, thus resulting in a strong dependence of entanglement on the filter functions. In this paper, we aim at optimizing the filter functions to obtain a large entanglement in a relatively short time, which is important for utilizing the entangled light beams more efficiently in real experiments. We outline the general optimization procedures based on our previous schemes of generating entangled beams in a multimode optomechanical system. Moreover, we give analytic insights into as well as physical explanations of the wave-packet optimization, which are helpful for experimental estimations.

Enhanced output entanglement with reservoir engineering

Xiao-Bo Yan

We study the output entanglement in a three-mode optomechanical system via reservoir engineering by shifting the center frequency of filter function away from resonant frequency. We find the bandwidth of the filter function can suppress the entanglement in the vicinity of resonant frequency of the system, while the entanglement will become strong if the center frequency departs from the resonant frequency. We obtain the approximate analytical expressions of the output entanglement, from which we give the optimal center frequency at which the entanglement takes the maximum. Furthermore, we study the effects of time delay between the two output fields on the output entanglement, and obtain the optimal time delay for the case of large filter bandwidth.

Entanglement characteristics of output optical fields in double-cavity optomechanics

Zhang Xiu-Long, Qian-Qian Bao, Yang Ming-Zhu +1 more

Radiation pressure in an optomechanical system can be used to generate various quantum entanglements between the subsystems. Recently, one paid more attention to the study of quantum entanglement in an optomechanical system. Here in this work, we study the properties of output entanglement between two filtered output optical fields by the logarithmic negativity method in a double-cavity optomechanical system. Our calculations show that the decay rate of the mechanical resonator, the bandwidth of filter function, and non-equal-coupling will evidently affect the value of the output entanglement. In particular, under the parameters of equal-coupling and zero filter bandwidth, the output entanglement in the vicinity of resonant frequency (=0 in the rotating frame) will decease with mechanical decay rate increasing. But under the parameters of equal-coupling and non-zero filter bandwidth, the output entanglement will be suppressed if the center frequency of output field is in the vicinity of the resonant frequency. However, the output entanglement can be enhanced if we adopt a non-equal-coupling to counteract the suppression effect of the filter bandwidth. Furthermore, we find that there are three peaks in the whole center frequency domain of the output field if we adopt strong non-equal-coupling. This is because the normal mode of Hamiltonian Hint will split into three normal modes in this case. Our results can also be used in other parametrically coupled three-mode bosonic systems and may be applied to realizing the state transfer process and quantum teleportation in an optomechanical system.

Scheme for enhancing quadripartite entangled optical modes from an opto-mechanical system

Jing Zhang, Xiaoyu Liu, Rongguo Yang +1 more

Multipartite entanglement is a key resource for quantum information processing and quantum communication. We show that the robust entanglement among four filtered output optical modes can be achieved when there is a nonlinear crystal inside an optomechanical cavity. The optical parametric amplifier (OPA) gives rise to single-mode squeezing of the cavity modes; therefore, the entanglement among four output optical modes can be enhanced remarkably. Furthermore, the degree of quadripartite entanglement is influenced by the nonlinear gain of OPA and bandwidth of the filters. Large entanglement can be obtained by optimizing the filter functions, which is important for utilizing entangled light beams more efficiently in real experiments. This kind of multipartite entanglement will be useful and valuable in the area of quantum communication networks.

Enhancement of the entanglement of two output fields via an atom-assisted optomechanical system without adiabatic elimination

Yi Lu, Zheng-Hong Li, Xihua Yang

The entanglement of two output fields generated by a hybrid system consisting of an ensemble of Λ-type three-level atoms placed inside a conventional cavity optomechanical system is investigated without adiabatic elimination of the atomic operators. We show that the entanglement between two output fields can be enhanced significantly by introducing a suitable number of atoms in the cavity optomechanical system as compared to the case without atoms under realistic experimental conditions. A high-finesse cavity is more favourable than a low-finesse one for entangling two output fields in such a hybrid system. In addition, keeping a low dephasing rate of the atomic lower doublet and a low-temperature environment of the movable mirror are crucial to the generation of entanglement between two output fields. This hybrid system provides new perspectives for quantum interfaces and may find potential applications for quantum information processing with continuous variables.

Enhancement of Polarized Optomechanical Entanglement in Lossy Cavity

Foulla Dieudonné Platou, Beuteubé Rianbé François, Gotoum Nadjnangar +1 more

We investigate quantum bipartite entanglement between mechanical and polarized optical modes in a lossy optomechanical cavity driven by a polarized electromagnetic field. A key feature of our scheme is that the polarization of the driving field permits phase-dependent modulation of the components of the optomechanical coupling strength. We demonstrate that this modulation offers a precise control mechanism, enabling the generation of optomechanical entanglement primarily oriented along a desired direction (vertical or horizontal). The intracavity loss acts as a resource, leading to an enhancement of the generated polarized optomechanical entanglements. Moreover, this loss is shown to be crucial for significantly increasing the robustness and stability of the generated entanglement against thermal noise. This work paves the way for advanced quantum state engineering and robust quantum information processing protocols within optomechanical systems.
