Abstract

Abstract We investigate the stationary entanglement properties in a hybrid system consisting of an optical cavity, a mechanical resonator, a charged object, and an atomic ensemble. Numerical results show that this hybrid system exhibits three kinds of controllable bipartite entanglements in an experimentally accessible parameter regime with the help of the charged object. More importantly, it is viable to enhance on demand each bipartite entanglement at the expense of reducing others by modulating the Coulomb coupling strength. Last but not least, these bipartite entanglements seem more robust against on the environmental temperature for the positive Coulomb interaction.

Bipartite entanglement generation in an electro-optomechanical ring cavity via charge-mediated coupling

Fouad Essaadi, Yassine Oussarhan, S. Mouslih +5 more

We present a theoretical investigation of quantum entanglement enhancement in an electro-optomechanical system comprising a ring cavity with two Coulomb-coupled mechanical resonators and an embedded optical parametric amplifier (OPA). The system dynamics are governed by radiation pressure interactions between the optical field and mechanical modes, modified by both the Coulomb coupling and OPA-induced squeezing. Through a comprehensive quantum Langevin analysis and linearization approach, we demonstrate how these competing interactions can be exploited to generate and control entanglement. Our key finding is that the Coulomb interaction strength is fundamental for generating bipartite entanglement, both between directly coupled mechanical modes and, more remarkably, between optical and mechanical modes, thereby influencing the entire system. The OPA parameters, namely the gain and phase, provide powerful control knobs for entanglement optimization. Notably, the OPA enhances entanglement robustness against thermal noise, resulting in stronger quantum correlations. We quantify these effects through covariance matrix methods and logarithmic negativity measures. The study provides new insights into hybrid optomechanical entanglement generation, showing how combined charge-mediated coupling and optical squeezing can overcome typical limitations of purely optomechanical systems. These results offer practical guidelines for experimental implementations in quantum information processing and macroscopic quantum state engineering, particularly in systems where environmental noise and parameter stability are critical concerns.

Generation and Enhancement of Bipartite and Tripartite Entanglement in an Electro-Optomechanical Ring Cavity

Fouad Essaadi, Yassine Oussarhan, Mohamed Ouhammou +4 more

This study investigates the generation and enhancement of quantum entanglement in an electro-optomechanical ring cavity system. The setup integrates two Coulomb-coupled mechanical resonators, which serve as the fundamental mechanism for the generation of bipartite and tripartite entanglement via charge mediated coupling. We then demonstrate the significant enhancement of this entanglement via a nonlinear parametric drive (an optical parametric amplifier, OPA), which injects a controllable nonlinearity into the cavity. We derive the system's Hamiltonian and the corresponding quantum Langevin equations, which are linearized around steady-state solutions to analyze Gaussian quantum fluctuations. Employing the covariance matrix formalism, we quantify bipartite entanglement via logarithmic negativity and tripartite entanglement via the minimum residual contangle. Our results unequivocally show that while the Coulomb interaction is indispensable for creating entanglement, the OPA acts as a powerful control tool, dramatically amplifying the degree of quantum correlations for all subsystems. We find that the strength of entanglement is highly sensitive to several parameters and can be optimized through the strategic selection of the OPA's gain and phase, the laser detuning, and the input power. A key finding is the existence of a trade-off, where parameters that maximize entanglement also constrain the stable operating regime of the system. Furthermore, thermal noise is shown to progressively degrade all quantum correlations, underscoring the necessity for low-temperature operation. These findings provide comprehensive guidance for parameter optimization, outlining a clear path from generation to enhancement, and highlight the potential of such hybrid systems as versatile platforms for controlling multipartite entanglement in quantum technologies.

Enhanced multicolor optomechanically induced transparency in electro-optical hybrid system

Guixia Pan, Ruijie Xiao, Chengbo Zhai

Abstract We investigate the tunable multicolor optomechanically induced transparency through electro-optical hybrid system. The system consists an optical cavity fulled with three-level atomic ensemble and two charged mechanical oscillators coupled via Coulomb interaction. Under different coupling strengths, the system can exhibit the phenomena of optomechanical induced transparency increase. Specifically, the number of the transparency windows increases with the presence of charged mechanical resonators and atoms. Furthermore, the induced transparency phenomena are strongly manipulated by the coupling strength between the optical mode and the mechanical mode, or between the optical mode and the atoms and the Rabi frequency, or between the Coulomb coupling between the two charged mechanical modes. It is found that the larger coupling strength between the cavity field and the atoms and the mechanical oscillator, the wider transparent windows. Our approach is feasible for storage of light and has potential applications in quantum information processing.

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.

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.

Optomechanically induced transparency in a hybrid system containing two-level atomic ensemble and optical parametric amplifier

Gongtao Yu, Guixia Pan

Abstract We investigate the physical properties of multiple optomechanically induced transparency in a system. The system consists of two charged mechanical resonators and an optical cavity. An optical parametric amplifier (OPA) and a two-level atom ensemble are filled into the optical cavity. Some physical phenomena appear in the system driven by the probe field and the pump field. The width of transparent windows can be manipulated by the coupling strengths of the system. Specifically, the width of the transparency window increases with an increase in the parametric gain of the optical parametric amplifier (OPA). Furthermore, the number of transparent windows and the location of transparent points are also affected by the system parameters. The presence of two-level atomic ensemble causes the double transparent windows to be split three transparent windows. The Coulomb coupling between the two charged mechanical resonators causes the transparent points to move. Our approach provides a great flexibility for manipulating multiple induced transparency. It is helpful to study the quantum properties of nonlinear optical systems.
