We investigate the generation of multicolor quadripartite entangled beams of light with continuous variables via optomechanical coupling in an optical cavity. It is found that the genuine quadripartite entanglement can be achieved among the Stokes and anti-Stokes sidebands of two driven cavity fields. This entanglement still exists for the environment temperature up to about
50K. We also show that the obtained genuine quadripartite entanglement actually results from concurrent four-wave-mixing processes in the system, which can, in principle, be generalized to obtain a genuine
2N-partite entangled state of light from a generic
N-mode cavity optomechanical system.
We propose a feasible scheme to generate electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) and quadripartite macroscopic entanglement in an optomechanical system with one fixed mirror and three movable perfectly reflecting mirrors. We explore the EIT phenomena in this optomechanical system. Results show the appearance of EIT dips in the output field. Moreover, we demonstrate how steady-state quadripartite entanglement can be generated via radiation pressure. We also quantify the bipartite entanglement in each field—mirror subsystem and in the mirror—mirror subsystem. Findings show that a high intensity of entanglement between two subsystems can be achieved.
Abstract Macroscopic multiple continuous-variable (CV) entanglement plays a central role in recent CV-based approaches to quantum multipartite network, quantum communication and quantum secret sharing. We propose a novel scheme to generate stationary quadripartite CV entanglement at the macroscopic level in two coupling Fabry–Perot cavities with a flux qutrit. We treat two cavity fields and two movable mirrors as intrinsically quadripartite and study quadripartite CV entanglement among them. We demonstrate that genuine quadripartite CV entanglement can be generated in this system.
