Stationary entanglement between two nanomechanical oscillators induced by Coulomb interaction

Abstract

We propose a scheme for entangling two nanomechanical oscillators by Coulomb interaction in an optomechanical system. We find that the steady-state entanglement of two charged nanomechanical oscillators can be obtained when the coupling between them is stronger than a critical value which relies on the detuning. Remarkably, the degree of entanglement can be controlled by the Coulomb interaction and the frequencies of the two charged oscillators.

Enhancing stationary entanglement between two optomechanical oscillators by Coulomb interaction with Kerr medium*

Tian-Le Yang, Chen-Long Zhu, Sheng Liu +1 more

We theoretically study the stationary entanglement of two charged nanomechanical oscillators coupling via Coulomb interaction in an optomechanical system with an additional Kerr medium. We show that the degree of entanglementbetween two nanomechanical oscillators is suppressed by Kerr interaction dueto photon blockade and enhanced by Coulomb coupling strength. We also show other parameters for adjusting and obtaining entanglement, such as the driving power and the frequencies of the two oscillators, and the entanglement is robust against temperature. Our study proves a way for adjusting stationary entanglement between two optomechanical oscillators by Coulomb interaction and Kerr medium.

Optomechanical steady state entanglement induced by electrical interaction

Chun-Nian Ren, Jian‐Qi Zhang, Chen, Libo +1 more

We propose a scheme for generating remote continuous steady-state entanglement of output light leaked from optomechanical system, in which two mechanical oscillators are coupled through long-range Coulomb interaction. we show that the entanglement of output light is affected by the detuning and the strength of the Coulomb interaction. We also demonstrate that two movable mirrors and two light beams can be entangled in the steady state. We suggest an experimental readout scheme to fully verify the characteristic of entangled state.

Entangling two levitated charged nanospheres through Coulomb interaction

Guoyao Li, Zhang‐qi Yin

Abstract Limited by the thermal environment, the entanglement of a massive object is extremely difficult to generate. Based on a coherent scattering mechanism, we propose a scheme to generate the entanglement of two optically levitated nanospheres through the Coulomb interaction. Two nanospheres are charged and coupled to each other through the Coulomb interaction. In this manner, the entanglement of two nanospheres is induced either under a weak/strong optomechanical coupling regime or under an ultra-strong optomechanical coupling regime. The charges, radius and distance of the two nanospheres are taken into consideration to enhance the Coulomb interaction, thereby achieving a higher degree of entanglement in the absence of ground-state cooling. The corresponding maximum entanglement can be attained as the dynamics of the system approaches the boundary between the steady and the unsteady regimes. This provides a useful resource for both quantum-enhanced sensing and quantum information processing, as well as a new platform for studying many-body physics.

Dissipation-induced optomechanical entanglement with the assistance of Coulomb interaction

Rongxin Chen, Li-Tuo Shen, Shi‐Biao Zheng

We consider a hybrid three-mode optomechanical system where one mechanical oscillator couples to a second one via a Coulomb force and to a cavity mode via an optomechanical interaction. It is shown that stationary cavity-mechanical entanglement can be achieved by effectively cooling a Bogoliubov mode via the intermediate mode acting as an engineered reservoir. The entanglement can be maximized by carefully balancing the two confronting effects of the ratio of the effective couplings. Moreover, we analyze in detail the effects of the nonresonant terms. It is found that while the stability zone of the system shrinks in the parameter plane for large cooperativity, the maximal entanglement is not significantly reduced by the nonresonant terms. We numerically optimize the ratio in the stable region and obtain remarkably strong entanglement in the large cooperativity regime.

Enhanced entanglement induced by Coulomb interaction in coupled optomechanical systems

Amjad Sohail, Rizwan Ahmed, Chang‐shui Yu +1 more

Abstract We consider a coupled optomechanical system, in which two charged mechanical resonators are coupled through long range Coulomb interaction. It is shown that remote entanglement between the two charged mechanical resonators can be achieved by long range Coulomb interaction. Such a coupled optomechanical system exhibits the classical to quantum transition behavior. The outcome of our numerical simulation shows that in the absence of optomechanical coupling, quantum entanglement between the two mechanical resonators can be achieved for large Coulomb coupling strengths and small effective temperature. In addition, the entanglement between the two mechanical resonators can be enhanced through input laser power. We also investigate the entanglement transfer through Coulomb interaction and optomechanical couplings.

Dynamical bipartite and tripartite entanglement of mechanical oscillators in an optomechanical array

Xiao‐Lei Hao, X. Y. Zhang, Y. H. Zhou +3 more

We theoretically propose a method to generate tripartite entanglement of three mechanical oscillators in an optomechanical array. We consider a system comprised of three bichromatically driven optomechanical systems which are coupled to each other via Coulomb interaction of the mechanical oscillators. We show that, for small Coulomb coupling strength, steady tripartite entanglement of the three mechanical oscillators with time periodicity can be generated due to the combined effect of the two-tone drivings and the Coulomb coupling. At large Coulomb coupling strength, the tripartite entanglement exhibits steady entanglement sudden death and revival. The duration of entanglement death during one period can be controlled by the Coulomb coupling strength. The tripartite entanglement is robust against the mechanical thermal noise. Our paper provides us a route for exploring and exploiting controllable and robust multipartite entanglement among macroscopic mechanical oscillators.
