Generating long-distance quantum entanglement is crucial for advancing quantum information processing. In this work, we propose a protocol for generating remote magnon-phonon entanglement in a hybrid waveguide-magnomechanical system, where multiple spatially separated magnon modes couple to a common waveguide while interacting with their respective phonon modes. By applying tailored pulsed drives and engineering the magnon-phonon interactions, our scheme enables the creation of diverse long-distance and dynamically stable entanglement. Beyond basic magnon-phonon two-mode entanglement, it supports genuine multimode entanglement between a single phonon and multiple magnons, bipartite entanglement between a single magnon and multiple phonons, as well as genuine four-mode entanglement involving two magnons and two phonons. Moreover, we show that dissipative magnon-magnon interactions mediated by traveling photons can generate substantially stronger long-distance entanglement than coherent couplings. Our work provides an experimentally feasible scheme for the remote generation of magnon-phonon entanglement.

Generating multipartite entanglement is always a popular research field in quantum information processing and quantum optics. In this paper, we propose a scheme to realize all bipartite entanglements and the genuine tripartite entanglement among photon, magnon, and phonon modes in a cavity-magnomechanical system. The center-of-mass motion of a yttrium iron garnet sphere couples to the magnon and constitutes photon-magnon-phonon tripartite interaction. By modulating the detuning between the cavity (magnon) mode and the driven field, we can obtain the optimal photon-phonon entanglement or magnon-phonon entanglement. The genuine tripartite entanglement can be prepared through a suitable detuning. We compare the different entanglement cases with and without effective direct cavity-magnon coupling. The results indicate that the photon-magnon entanglement can be enhanced by the effective cavity-magnon coupling strength, and all bipartite entanglements show greater robustness against the thermal phonon number. This investigation should be useful for phonon-involved multipartite quantum information processing and quantum precision measurement.
In this work, we present a hybrid cavity opto-magnomechanical system to generate distant bipartite entanglement between different quantum carriers. Accordingly, the system consists of two cavity photons, a phonon of yttrium iron garnet (YIG), a magnon, and a phonon of membrane. Specifically, the two cavities are coupled through an optical fiber, and one of the optical cavities consists of a membrane coupled with the cavity photon through radiation pressure force. While the other cavity contains a YIG, the magnon mode connects to the cavity photon via magnetic dipole interaction and, simultaneously, couples to the mechanical resonator of the YIG through magnetostrictive interaction. We show that entanglement generation can be realized under indirectly coupled bipartitions for parameters and detunings within appropriate regimes. Furthermore, for various bipartitions, we also obtain appropriate cavity and magnon detuning values for a considerable remote entanglement. Moreover, the generation of distant bipartite entanglements and entanglement transfer between subsystems is predominantly influenced by the coupling strength. Remarkably, the distant bipartite entanglement is strongly contrary to the environmental temperature. Thus, optimizing the system’s parameters allows for the maximum possible entanglement between various quantum carriers. We believe our results could provide more stable bipartite entanglements and serve as a potential quantum interface to realize particularly long-range entanglement transfers.
We construct a hybrid cavity magnomechanical system to transfer the bipartite entanglements and achieve the strong microwave photon-phonon entanglement based on the reservoir engineering approach. The magnon mode is coupled to the microwave cavity mode via magnetic dipole interaction, and to the phonon mode via magnetostrictive force (optomechanical-like). It is shown that the initial magnon-phonon entanglement can be transferred to the photon-phonon subspace in the case of these two interactions cooperating. In reservoir-engineering parameter regime, the initial entanglement is directionally transferred to the photon-phonon subsystem, so we obtain a strong bipartite entanglement in which the magnon mode acts as the cold reservoir to effectively cooling the Bogoliubov mode delocalized over the cavity and the mechanical deformation mode. Moreover, as the dissipation ratio between the cold reservoir mode and the target mode increases, we can achieve greater quantum entanglement and better cooling effect. Our results indicate that the steady-state entanglement is robust against temperature. The scheme may provides potential applications for quantum information processing, and is expected to be extended to other three-mode systems.
The generation of quantum correlations in hybrid quantum systems remains a central challenge due to the intrinsic limitations of linear interactions. In cavity magnomechanical platforms, the cavity-magnon coupling gives rise to hybridized cavity-magnon polaritons (CMPs). However, as a beam-splitter-type interaction, it does not by itself generate entanglement between the polariton modes in the absence of additional nonlinear or parametric processes. Here, we propose a mechanism based on multimode phonon mediation, in which multiple vibrational modes act as parallel scattering channels that couple the polaritons through Stokes and anti-Stokes processes. We show that , in the parameter regime explored here, the presence of multiple phonon modes leads to a monotonic enhancement of steady-state entanglement, thereby going beyond the limitations of conventional single-mode schemes. Furthermore, we demonstrate that quantum synchronization between the polariton modes originates from the same underlying scattering processes responsible for entanglement generation, yet exhibits an opposite scaling behavior with increasing phonon number for the phase quadrature, while the amplitude synchronization reveals collective squeezing that grows with the number of phonon channels. Our results provide new insights into the role of multimode interactions in shaping quantum correlations and establish a viable pathway for controlling entanglement and collective dynamics in hybrid magnomechanical platforms.
We theoretically propose a scheme to generate distant bipartite entanglement between various subsystems in coupled magnomechanical systems where both the microwave cavities are coupled through single photon hopping coupling strength Γ. Each cavity contains a magnon mode and phonon mode and this gives six excitation modes in our model Hamiltonian which are cavity-1 photons, cavity-2 photons, magnon and phonon in cavity-1, and magnon and phonon in cavity-2. We found that significant bipartite entanglement exists between indirectly coupled subsystems in coupled microwave cavities for an appropriate set of parameters regime. Moreover, we also obtain suitable cavity and magnon detuning parameters for a significant distant bipartite entanglement in different bipartitions. In addition, it can be seen that a single photon hopping parameter significantly affects both the degree as well as the transfer of quantum entanglement between various bipartitions. Hence, our present study related to coupled microwave cavity magnomechanical configuration will open new perspectives in coherent control of various quantum correlations including quantum state transfer among macroscopic quantum systems.
Quantum entanglement in cavity magnomechanical system has a wide range of applications in modern quantum technologies. In this work, we propose a theoretical scheme to generate and enhance quantum entanglement through cross-Kerr nonlinearity and mechanical parametric amplification (MPA) in a magnomechanical system. Our system is made of a magnonic mode that is simultaneously driving the acoustic phononic and the center-of-mass motion (CMM) phonon in a yttrium iron garnet sphere. The acoustic mode and the center-of-mass mechanical (CMM) mode are weakly coupled via the phonon hopping rate Jm. Moreover, the magnonic and phononic modes interact through cross-Kerr interaction, while the phononic mode is additionally driven via a Mechanical Parametric Amplification (MPA). Without the mechanical coupling (Jm=0) and the MPA, the generation of entanglement among the subsystems requires a relatively strong effective cross-Kerr coupling. However, when phonon hopping and MPA are accounted, quantum entanglement can be generated even for weak values of the cross-Kerr coupling strength, revealing the key role of these interactions in the engineering of quantum correlations in our proposal. Furthermore, the related purity of the generated entangled states remains high for the same parameter's regime, revealing that the generated quantum entanglement is established without significantly increasing the mixing of the involved states in the system. Our work suggests how robust and stable quantum correlations can be engineered in magnomechanical structures based on nonlinear interactions. These results are useful for modern quantum applications including quantum information processing, quantum communication, and quantum computational tasks.
