Einstein–Podolsky–Rosen-type quantum entanglement between coupled cavities

Abstract

We investigate Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR)-type spatial entanglement between two coupled, driven, dissipative and nonlinear optical cavities. We identify the required parameter regimes of polariton-exchange and nonlinearity coefficients as having robust EPR-type entanglement at the steady state. In addition, we examine the influence of weak and strong drives on these parameter regimes.

Spin squeezing, entanglement, and coherence in two driven, dissipative, nonlinear cavities coupled with single- and two-photon exchange

Ali Ü. C. Hardal, Özgür Esat Müstecaplıoğlu

We investigate spin squeezing, quantum entanglement, and second-order coherence in two coupled, driven, dissipative, nonlinear cavities. We compare these quantum statistical properties for the cavities coupled with either single- or two-photon exchange. Solving the quantum optical master equation of the system numerically in the steady state, we calculate the zero-time delay second-order correlation function for the coherent, genuine two-mode entanglement parameters, an optimal spin squeezing inequality associated with particle entanglement, concurrence, quantum entropy, and logarithmic negativity. We identify regimes of distinct quantum statistical character depending on the relative strength of photon exchange and nonlinearity. Moreover, we examine the effects of weak and strong drives on these quantum statistical regimes.

Entanglement and Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen steering between a nanomechanical resonator and a cavity coupled with two quantum dots

Yan Yan, Gao‐xiang Li, Qing-Lin Wu

We propose a scheme for generation of the stationary continuous-variable entanglement and Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) steering between an optical cavity mode and a nanomechanical resonator (NMR) mode. The cavity and the NMR are commonly coupled with two separated quantum dots (QDs), where the two QDs are driven simultaneously by a strong laser field. By adjusting the frequency of the strong laser field, the two QDs are nearly trapped on different dressed states, which is helpful to generate the entanglement between the cavity mode and the NMR mode. Due to the combined resonant interaction of the two QDs with the NMR-cavity subsystem, the photon and the phonon created and (or) annihilated are correlated. In this regime, the optimal entanglement of the two modes is obtained and the purity of the state of the NMR-cavity subsystem is near to 1. Furthermore, the coupling strength between the cavity and two QDs is different from the dot-NMR coupling strength, which leads to the different mean occupation numbers of the cavity and the NMR. In this case, one-way EPR steering is observed. In addition, through analyzing the purity, we find the conditions of the existence for the different types of EPR steering.

Einstein–Podolsky–Rosen entanglement via nonlinear processes enhanced by electromagnetically induced transparency

Guangling Cheng, Xiangming Hu, Wenxue Zhong

We show that Einstein–Podolsky–Rosen (EPR) light entanglement is obtainable via the resonant nonlinear interactions enhanced by electromagnetically induced transparency. A three-level system is used as a unified model, where two metastable states are coupled to each other via microwave, or Raman, or two-photon transition, and the upper metastable state is coupled to the excited state. A pair of inner sidebands is amplified as optical cavity modes via the transition from the excited state to the other metastable state. The analysis is presented by using the dressed-atom squeezed-transformed-mode approach. For a proper ratio of the amplitudes of the applied fields, the sum of the variances for two EPR-like operators approaches zero, which corresponds to EPR entanglement.

Entanglement and the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen paradox with coupled intracavity optical down-converters

M. K. Olsen, P. D. Drummond

We show that two evanescently coupled ${\ensuremath{\chi}}^{(2)}$ parametric down-converters inside a Fabry-Perot cavity provide a tunable source of quadrature squeezed light, Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) correlations and quantum entanglement. Analyzing the operation in the below threshold regime, we show how these properties can be controlled by adjusting the coupling strengths and the cavity detunings. As this can be implemented with integrated optics, it provides a possible route to rugged and stable EPR sources.

Nonlinear Entanglement and its Application to Generating Cat States

Yong Shen, Syed M. Assad, Nicolai B. Grosse +3 more

The Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) paradox, which was formulated to argue for the incompleteness of quantum mechanics, has since metamorphosed into a resource for quantum information. The EPR entanglement describes the strength of linear correlations between two objects in terms of a pair of conjugate observables in relation to the Heisenberg uncertainty limit. We propose that entanglement can be extended to include nonlinear correlations. We examine two driven harmonic oscillators that are coupled via third-order nonlinearity can exhibit quadraticlike nonlinear entanglement which, after a projective measurement on one of the oscillators, collapses the other into a cat state of tunable size.

Quantum entanglement and teleportation in pulsed cavity optomechanics

S. Höfer, Witlef Wieczorek, Markus Aspelmeyer +1 more

Entangling a mechanical oscillator with an optical mode is an enticing and yet a very challenging goal in cavity optomechanics. Here we consider a pulsed scheme to create Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen-type entanglement between a traveling-wave light pulse and a mechanical oscillator. The entanglement can be verified unambiguously by a pump-probe sequence of pulses. In contrast to schemes that work in a steady-state regime under a continuous-wave drive, this protocol is not subject to stability requirements that normally limit the strength of achievable entanglement. We investigate the protocol's performance under realistic conditions, including mechanical decoherence, in full detail. We discuss the relevance of a high mechanical $Qf$ product for entanglement creation and provide a quantitative statement on which magnitude of the $Qf$ product is necessary for a successful realization of the scheme. We determine the optimal parameter regime for its operation and show it to work in current state-of-the-art systems.
