Nonreciprocal optomechanical entanglement in an asymmetric Fabry-Perot cavity

Jia-Kang Wu, Ning Hu, Jie-Qiao Liao +1 more

Nonreciprocal transmission (classical nonreciprocity) in optomechanical systems based on asymmetric Fabry-Perot (F-P) cavities has been theoretically proposed and experimentally demonstrated. However, nonreciprocal quantum effects, particularly nonreciprocal quantum entanglement, remain unexplored in such systems. Here, we propose to generate nonreciprocal optomechanical entanglement in an asymmetric F-P cavity and discuss the connection between the nonreciprocal transmission and nonreciprocal quantum entanglement. We reproduce the nonreciprocal transmission spectra by solving the quantum Langevin equations, and then discuss the optimal parameters to achieve nonreciprocal optomechanical entanglement in the system. We show that a greater and more robust optomechanical entanglement can be approached in the asymmetric F-P cavities, in comparing with the symmetric cavities. Furthermore, we find that the degrees of classical and quantum nonreciprocities do not exhibit positive correlation as expected. Our work shows that the classical and quantum nonreciprocities can be realized simultaneously in the asymmetric F-P cavities, which provide a platform to explore the connection between classical and quantum nonreciprocities.

Nonreciprocal entanglement in exciton optomechanics with an optical parametric amplifier

Zhen-Sen Lin, Rui Zhang, Zi-Wei Jiang +4 more

We study nonreciprocal bipartite and tripartite entanglement in a spinning exciton-optomechanical system (EOMS) with an optical parametric amplifier (OPA). We demonstrate that nonreciprocal entanglement among photons, excitons, and phonons can be achieved under experimentally feasible parameters. We find that the nonreciprocal entanglement induced by Sagnac effects can be regulated through the OPA. Particularly, We show that the OPA significantly enhances photon-exciton entanglement and tripartite entanglement but weakens photon-phonon and exciton-phonon entanglement. Moreover, we find that the photon-exciton nonreciprocal entanglement not only can be generated at room temperature and even higher temperature but also exhibits highly robustness to cavity dissipation. Our works open a way to manipulate the room-temperature nonreciprocal entanglement, which may be useful for developing nonreciprocal quantum technologies.

Nonreciprocal microwave-optical entanglement in a magnon-based hybrid system

Qianjun Zheng, Wenxue Zhong, Guangling Cheng +1 more

We propose a theoretical scheme for the generation of nonreciprocal microwave-optical entanglement in a magnon-based hybrid system where an optical photon in a spinning resonator is coupled to a phonon representing the quantum of the mechanical deformation of a yttrium iron garnet crystal via radiation pressure. Meanwhile, the magnon interacts with the phonon and the microwave through the magnetostrictive and magnetic dipole–dipole interactions, respectively. By spinning the resonator, the light driven in opposite directions propagates irreversibly, which leads to the classical nonreciprocity of mean optical photon numbers. Strikingly, the nonreciprocal entanglement between microwave and optical photons can be generated owing to the Fizeau light-dragging effect. Physically, the magnon–phonon entanglement induced by the magnomechanical parametric downconversion interaction is partially transferred to the microwave-optical subsystem through magnon-microwave and optomechanical state-exchange interactions. Moreover, the nonreciprocity of entanglement can be manipulated by properly choosing various system parameters and the ideal nonreciprocal microwave–optical entanglement could be achieved, in which the entanglement depending on the effective optical detuning is present in a chosen direction but disappears in the other direction. Our work could be applied in the multi-task quantum information processing and construction of chiral quantum networks.
