Impact of the central frequency of environment on non-Markovian dynamics in piezoelectric optomechanical devices

Published Jan 19, 2021• 8 citations

Abstract

The piezoelectric optomechanical devices supply a promising experimental platform to realize the coherent and effective control and measurement of optical circuits working in Terahertz (THz) frequencies via superconducting electron devices typically working in Radio (MHz) frequencies. However, quantum fluctuations are unavoidable when the size of mechanical oscillators enter into the nanoscale. The consequences of the noisy environment are still challenging due to the lack of analytical tools. In this paper, a semi-classical and full-quantum model of piezoelectric optomechanical systems coupled to a noisy bosonic quantum environment are introduced and solved in terms of quantum-state diffusion (QSD) trajectories in the non-Markovian regime. We show that the noisy environment, particularly the central frequency of the environment, can enhance the entanglement generation between optical cavities and LC circuits in some parameter regimes. Moreover, we observe the critical points in the coefficient functions, which can lead the different behaviors in the system. Besides, we also witness the entanglement transfers between macroscopic objects due to the memory effect of the environment. Our work can be applied in the fields of electric/ optical switches, and long-distance distribution in a large-scale quantum network.

Memory-effect-induced macroscopic-microscopic entanglement

Qing-Xia Mu, Xinyu Zhao, Ting Yu

We study optomechanical entanglement between an optical cavity field and a movable mirror coupled to a non-Markovian environment. The non-Markovian quantum-state diffusion approach and the non-Markovian master equation are shown to be useful in investigating entanglement generation between the cavity field and the movable mirror. The simple model presented in this paper demonstrates several interesting properties of optomechanical entanglement that are associated with environment memory effects. It is evident that the effective environment central frequency can be used to modulate the optomechanical entanglement. In addition, we show that the maximum entanglement may be achieved by properly choosing the effective detuning, which is significantly dependent on the strength of the memory effect of the environment.

Preservation Macroscopic Entanglement of Optomechanical Systems in non-Markovian Environment

Jiong Cheng, Wen-Zhao Zhang, Ling Zhou +1 more

We investigate dynamics of an optomechanical system under the non-Markovian environment. In the weak optomechanical single-photon coupling regime, we provide an analytical approach fully taking into account the non-Markovian memory effects. When the cavity-bath coupling strength crosses a certain threshold, an oscillating memory state for the classical cavity field is formed. Due to the existence of the non-decay optical bound state, a nonequilibrium optomechanical thermal entanglement is preserved even without external driving laser. Our results provide a potential usage to generate and protect entanglement via non-Markovian environment.

Macroscopic entanglement in optomechanical system induced by non-Markovian environment

Xinyu Zhao

In this paper, the non-Markovian dynamics of an optomechanical system is analyzed by using the non-Markovian quantum state diffusion (NMQSD) method. An exact solution is obtained for the system composed of a Fabry-Pérot (F-P) cavity with two movable mirrors without the linearization of the Hamiltonian. Based on the solution, we find that the memory effect of the non-Markovian environment can be used to generate macroscopic entanglement between two mirrors. In order to achieve the maximum entanglement generation, the non-Markovian properties of the environment have to be chosen carefully depending on the properties of the system. Then, we also show that the coherence (superposition) in the initial state may produce entanglement in the evolution. At last, we show the entanglement sudden death and revival significantly depend on the strength of the memory effect, and the entanglement revival can be only observed in non-Markovian case. Our treatment, as an example, paves a way to exactly solve a large category of optomechanical systems without the linearization of the Hamiltonian.

Macroscopic quantum entanglement between an optomechanical cavity and a continuous field in presence of non-Markovian noise

Su Direkci, K. Winkler, Corentin Gut +3 more

Probing quantum entanglement with macroscopic objects allows us to test quantum mechanics in new regimes. One way to realize such behavior is to couple a macroscopic mechanical oscillator to a continuous light field via radiation pressure. In view of this, the system that is discussed comprises an optomechanical cavity driven by a coherent optical field in the unresolved sideband regime where we assume Gaussian states and dynamics. We develop a framework to quantify the amount of entanglement in the system numerically. Different from previous work, we treat non-Markovian noise and take into account both the continuous optical field and the cavity mode. We apply our framework to the case of the Advanced Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory and discuss the parameter regimes where entanglement exists, even in the presence of quantum and classical noises.

Non-Markovian entanglement transfer to distant atoms in a coupled superconducting resonator*

Qing-Xia Mu, Peiying Lin

We investigate the non-Markovian effects on the entanglement transfer to the distant non-interacting atom qubits, which are embedded in a coupled superconducting resonator. The master equation governing the dynamics of the system is derived by the non-Markovian quantum state diffusion (NMQSD) method. Based on the solution, we show that the memory effect of the environment can lead to higher entanglement revival and make the entanglement last for a longer time. That is to say, the non-Markovian environment can enhance the entanglement transfer. It is also found that the maximum entanglement transferred to distant atoms can be modified by appropriately selecting the frequency of the modulated inter-cavity coupling. Moreover, with the initial anti-correlated state, the entanglement between the cavity fields can be almost completely transferred to the separated atoms. Lastly, we show that the memory effect has a significant impact on the generation of entanglement from the initial non-entangled states.
