Abstract

In this manuscript, we investigate the enhancement of the transfer of quantum correlations from squeezed light to movable mirrors within an optomechanical system. This enhancement was achieved via the injection of squeezed light in the cavities and via intracavity squeezed light. We quantify the entanglement between mechanical oscillators via logarithmic negativity. We demonstrate that entanglement is influenced by various factors, including the gain of the parametric amplifier, the squeezing parameter characterizing the squeezed light, the rate of the phonon tunneling process, the coupling strength of the photon hopping process and the bath temperature of the mechanical oscillators. We have shown that entanglement can be improved by a convenient choice of coupling strength in the case of the photon hopping process, as well as for specified values of the gain of the parametric amplifier.

Optimizing mechanical entanglement using squeezing and parametric amplification

Muhdin Abdo Wodedo, Tesfay Gebremariam Tesfahannes, Tewodros Yirgashewa Darge +1 more

We propose a scheme of an optomechanical system that optimizes entanglement in nanomechanical resonators through quantum state transfer of intracavity squeezing and squeezed reservoir field sources assisted by radiation pressure. The system is driven by red-detuned laser fields, which enable simultaneous cooling of the mechanical resonators and facilitate the quantum state transfer in a weak coupling and good cavity limit. Specifically, the mechanical entanglement is quantified using logarithmic negativity within the bipartite Gaussian states of the two mechanical modes. The results show that several key parameters, including the parametric phase and nonlinear gain of the non-degenerate optical parametric amplifier, the strength of the squeezing reservoir, optomechanical cooperativity, thermal excitation of phonons, and the temperature of mechanical baths, strongly influence the degree of mechanical entanglement. Hence, the findings indicate that careful tuning of the parameters can enable control over the enhancement of entanglement robustness, suggesting that this optomechanical scheme provides a viable pathway for applications in quantum sensing and information processing

Tripartite Quantum Entanglement with Squeezed Optomechanics

Ya‐Feng Jiao, Yunlan Zuo, Yan Wang +4 more

Abstract The ability to engineer entangled states that involve macroscopic objects is of particular importance for a wide variety of quantum‐enabled technologies, ranging from quantum information processing to quantum sensing. Here how to achieve coherent manipulation and enhancement of quantum entanglement in a hybrid optomechanical system, which consists of a Fabry–Pérot cavity with two movable mirrors, an optical parametric amplifier (OPA), and an injected squeezed vacuum reservoir is proposed. It is shown that the advantages of this system are twofold: 1) one can effectively regulate the light‐mirror interactions by introducing a squeezed intracavity mode via the OPA; 2) when properly matching the squeezing parameters between the squeezed cavity mode and the injected squeezed vacuum reservoir, the optical input noises can be suppressed completely. These peculiar features of this system allow the generation and manipulation of quantum entanglement in a coherent and controllable way. More importantly, it is also found that such controllable entanglement, under some specific squeezing parameters, can be considerably enhanced in comparison with those of the conventional optomechanical system. The work, providing a promising method to regulate and tailor the light‐mirror interaction, is poised to serve as a useful tool for engineering various quantum effects which are based on cavity optomechanics.

Strong mechanical squeezing and its detection

G. S. Agarwal, Sumei Huang

We report an efficient mechanism to generate a squeezed state of a mechanical mirror in an optomechanical system. We use an especially tuned parametric amplifier (PA) inside the cavity and the parametric photon phonon processes to transfer quantum squeezing from photons to phonons with almost 100% efficiency. We get 50% squeezing of the mechanical mirror which is limited by the PA. We present analytical results for the mechanical squeezing thus enabling one to understand the dependence of squeezing on system parameters like gain of PA, cooperativity, and temperature. As in cooling experiments the detrimental effects of mirror's Brownian and zero point noises are strongly suppressed by the pumping power. By judicious choice of the phases, the cavity output is squeezed only if the mirror is squeezed thus providing us a direct measure of the mirror's squeezing. Further considerable larger squeezing of the mirror can be obtained by adding the known feedback techniques.

Entanglement of movable mirror and cavity field enhanced by an optical parametric amplifier

Caiyun Zhang, Hu Li, Guixia Pan +1 more

A scheme to generate entanglement in a cavity optomechanical system filled with an optical parametric amplifier is proposed. With the help of the optical parametric amplifier, the stationary macroscopic entanglement between the movable mirror and the cavity field can be notably enhanced, and the entanglement increases when the parametric gain increases. Moreover, for a given parametric gain, the degree of entanglement of the cavity optomechanical system increases with increasing input laser power.

Transfer and preservation of entanglement in a hybrid optomechanical system

Qiankun Zhang, Xiangyang Zhang, Lianzhen Liu

We propose a scheme for entangling a movable mirror and two atomic ensembles in a coupled hybrid optomechanical system. Using the logarithmic negativity for the entanglement measure, we analyze the effect of the coupling strength between the two cavities on the entanglement of the movable mirror and the atomic ensembles, and we analyze the effect of the atom-cavity coupling constant on the entanglement of the movable mirror and the atomic ensembles. It is found that the entanglements of the movable mirror with one atomic ensemble transfer to the movable mirror with another atomic ensemble, and the robustness of the entanglement is enhanced by the coupling between the two cavities. The entanglements between the movable mirror and atomic ensembles are enhanced together with atom-cavity coupling increasing, and the entanglements have maxima in the accessibly parameters regime of the atom-cavity coupling constant.

Steady-state entanglement in a hybrid optomechanical system enhanced by optical parametric amplifiers

Abraham Abebe Kibret, Tewodros Yirgashewa Darge, Tesfay Gebremariam Tesfahannes

In this paper, we investigate the degree of steady-state entanglement using a hybrid optomechanical system, where the separate cavities contain a degenerate optical parametric amplifier (DOPA). Particularly, under the linearization approximation, the steady-state entanglement is quantified through logarithmic negativity. The bipartite entanglement between cavity-mechanical oscillator modes and two cavity modes is analyzed through the applicable choice of nonlinear gain of OPA, optical cavity detuning, and cavity-cavity coupling strength. It is found that the steady-state entanglement increases with the nonlinear gain of OPA medium and normalized detuning. We further emphasize the influence of cavity-cavity coupling parameter on the bipartite entanglement, and the generation of entanglement can be transferred entirely due to the coupling strengths. The main contribution of coupling parameters on the entanglement of the two modes of mechanical oscillators significantly altered and increased. The observed possibility of transferring the emerging entanglement of the states of light in the two cavities to the modes of the accompanying mechanical oscillators is expected to be a valuable asset in the practical realization of quantum information processing .
