Abstract

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.

Enhancing Bipartite Entanglement via Optical Parametric Amplifier in an Optomechanical Device

Sisay Belachew, Firomsa Feyissa

On this paper, we present an in depth evaluation of the bipartite entanglement of cavity radiation from the optomechanical device with an optical parametric amplifier (OPA) placed inside two cavity mode, which together have interaction with a mechanical resonator. Right here by linearizing the equations of motion, we set the entanglement gift inside the gadget, the use of the logarithmic negativity as a degree. We thereby symbolize the adjustments inside the machine entanglement that result from the addition of an quadratic coupling to a linearly coupled gadget. With the assist of the optical parametric amplifier, the desk bounds macroscopic entanglement between the movable replicate and the hollow space subject can be mainly more suitable, and the degree of entanglement increases while the parametric gain increases as well as input laser electricity will increase. For that reason, while an optical parametric amplifier is delivered inside a hollow space, which leads to extensive improvement of the two-mode entanglement. These results establish a promising theoretical basis for optical parametric amplifier (OPA) more suitable bipartite entanglement of optomechanical device for quantum technology and advanced quantum information processing applications.

Enhanced entanglement between two movable mirrors in an optomechanical system with nonlinear media

Li Junhong, Bang‐Pin Hou, Yong-Hong Zhao +1 more

We investigate the entanglement between two movable mirrors in an optomechanical cavity, in which a Kerr-down-conversion crystal consisting of a Kerr nonlinear medium and an optical parametric amplifier (OPA) is placed. The effects of the nonlinear media on the entanglement have been analyzed. It is shown that the Kerr nonlinear medium makes the perfect entanglement in some discrete frequency regions. Furthermore, when the input vacuum field is squeezed, the frequency range for producing the entanglement can be effectively extended and the reachable maximal entanglement can be enhanced by the Kerr nonlinear medium, while the OPA medium reduces the degree of the entanglement and necks the frequency range for generating the entanglement. These results suggest that nonlinear media could serve as a new handle to coherently control the entanglement between the vibrational modes of the micromirrors in the optomechanical cavity system.

Enhanced entanglement of two distant mechanical oscillators in a two-cascaded-cavity optomechanical system via optical parametric amplifier

Meimei Zhou, Sumei Huang, Li Deng +1 more

The generation of quantum entanglement in macroscopic systems remains a longstanding challenge. In this paper, we study theoretically the stationary entanglement of the two remote mechanical oscillators in a two-cascaded-cavity optomechanical system with a degenerate optical parametric amplifier (OPA) inside the first cavity. The two cavity modes in each cavity are driven at the red- and blue-sideband frequencies. The logarithmic negativity is used to quantify the amount of the stationary mechanical entanglement. We find that the stationary mechanical entanglement depends on the parametric gain and phase of the OPA, the input laser powers, the cavity decay rates, and the temperature of the environment. We show that it is possible to enhance the stationary mechanical entanglement by the use of the OPA, and the optimal enhancement of the stationary mechanical entanglement happens at the parametric phase 𝜋 / 2 of the OPA. At lower temperatures, the OPA exhibits a more significant improvement effect on the stationary mechanical entanglement.

Optomechanical entanglement via non-degenerate parametric interactions

Rizwan Ahmed, Shahid Qamar

Abstract We present a scheme for the optomechanical entanglement between a micro-mechanical mirror and the field inside a bimodal cavity system using a non-degenerate optical parametric amplifier (NOPA). Our results show that the introduction of NOPA makes the entanglement stronger or more robust against the mean number of average thermal phonons and cavity decay. Interestingly, macroscopic entanglement depends upon the choice of the phase associated with classical field driving NOPA. We also consider the effects of input laser power on optomechanical entanglement.

Improving macroscopic entanglement with nonlocal mechanical squeezing

Chang‐Sheng Hu, Xinyu Lin, Li-Tuo Shen +4 more

We report an efficient mechanism to generate mechanical entanglement in a two-cascaded cavity optomechanical system with optical parametric amplifiers (OPAs) inside the two coupled cavities. We use the especially tuned OPAs to squeeze the hybrid mode composed of two mechanical modes, leading to strong macroscopic entanglement between the two movable mirrors. The squeezing parameter as well as the effective mechanical damping are both modulated by the OPA gains. The optimal degree of mechanical entanglement therefore depends on the balanced process between coherent hybrid mode squeezing and dissipation engineering. The mechanical entanglement is robust to strong cavity decay, going beyond simply resolved sideband regime, and is resistant to reasonable high thermal noise. The scheme provides an alternative way for generating strong macroscopic entanglement in cascaded optomechanical systems.

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.
