Abstract

Abstract We theoretically investigate quantum entanglement and coherence in a hybrid Laguerre–Gaussian rotating cavity optomechanical system with two-level atoms, where cavity and mechanical modes are coupled through the exchange of orbital angular momentum. Our study shows that the injection of atoms with a suitable choice of the physical parameters can significantly improve the degree of optomechanical entanglement in all aspects. In the study of quantum coherence research, we show more comprehensively the negative and positive effects of atoms on the coherence. The result obtained is that only when the atom is significantly off-resonant to driving field, the coupling strength in between the atoms and light field increases and the quantum coherence can be enhanced, otherwise it will reduce quantum coherence. In addition, the atomic decay suppresses quantum coherence phenomenon.

Entanglement and quantum coherence of two YIG spheres in a hybrid Laguerre–Gaussian cavity optomechanics

Abdelkader Hidki, Jia‐Xin Peng, S. K. Singh +2 more

We theoretically investigate continuous variable entanglement and macroscopic quantum coherence in the hybrid L-G rotational cavity optomechanical system containing two YIG spheres. In this system, a single L-G cavity mode and both magnon modes (which are due to the collective excitation of spins in two YIG spheres) are coupled through the magnetic dipole interaction whereas the L-G cavity mode can also exchange orbital angular momentum (OAM) with the rotating mirror (RM). We study in detail the effects of various physical parameters like cavity and both magnon detunings, environment temperature, optorotational and magnon coupling strengths on the bipartite entanglement and the macroscopic quantum coherence as well. We also explore parameter regimes to achieve maximum values for both of these quantum correlations. We also observed that the parameters regime for achieving maximum bipartite entanglement is completely different from macroscopic quantum coherence. So, our present study shall provide a method to control various nonclassical quantum correlations of macroscopic objects in the hybrid L-G rotational cavity optomechanical system and have potential applications in quantum sensing, quantum meteorology, and quantum information science.

Hybrid rotational cavity optomechanics using an atomic superfluid in a ring

Sanket Das, Pardeep Kumar, Mishkatul Bhattacharya +1 more

We introduce a hybrid optomechanical system containing an annularly trapped Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) inside an optical cavity driven by Lauguerre-Gaussian (LG) modes. Spiral phase elements serve as the end mirrors of the cavity such that the rear mirror oscillates torsionally about the cavity axis through a clamped support. As described earlier in a related system [P. Kumar , ], the condensate atoms interact with the optical cavity modes carrying orbital angular momentum which create two atomic side modes. We observe three peaks in the output noise spectrum corresponding to the atomic side modes and rotating mirror frequencies, respectively. We find that the trapped BEC's rotation reduces quantum fluctuations at the mirror's resonance frequency. We also find that the atomic side modes-cavity coupling and the optorotational coupling can produce bipartite and tripartite entanglements between various constituents of our hybrid system. We reduce the frequency difference between the side modes and the mirror by tuning the drive field's topological charge and the condensate atoms' rotation. When the atomic side modes become degenerate with the mirror, the stationary entanglement between the cavity and the mirror mode diminishes due to the suppression of cooling. Our proposal, which combines atomic superfluid circulation with mechanical rotation, provides a versatile platform for reducing quantum fluctuations and producing macroscopic entanglement with experimentally realizable parameters.

Manipulating the steady-state entanglement via three-level atoms in a hybrid levitated optomechanical system

Guoyao Li, Wenjie Nie, Yu Xi Wu +3 more

We theoretically investigate the generation of steady-state entanglement in a levitated optomechanical system with a cascade three-level atomic medium and a dielectric nanosphere. There are two cavity modes, driven by two external laser beams with different frequencies, which are responsible for trapping and cooling the nanosphere. Atoms prepared in coherent superposition are injected into the cavity to manipulate the optical fields and the effective optomechanical coupling. We show that the entanglement between the nanosphere and the cavity modes can be enhanced by selecting properly the initial population of the lower atomic level. In particular, when the atoms are prepared at that level, the corresponding optomechanical entanglement increases with the increase of the atom-field coupling strength. We also investigate in detail the influence of the effective cavity field detunings, the atomic detunings, the driving power, and the nanosphere's radius and found that there exist optimal values of the effective cavity field detuning and the driving power that maximize the optomechanical entanglement. By selecting the system's parameters properly, we further demonstrate the generation of genuine tripartite entanglement between three degrees of freedom in the system. The findings here may help flexible control of the steady-state entanglement in hybrid optomechanical systems.

Enhancing quantum coherence in hybrid optomechanical systems with coherent feedback, atomic ensembles, and optical parametric amplifier

Abstract We theoretically investigate quantum coherence in a hybrid optomechanical system with a fixed mirror, mechanical oscillators, two-level atoms, and an optical parametric amplifier (OPA) within the cavity. A coherent feedback loop is created by redirecting part of the cavity's output field back into the cavity via an asymmetric beam splitter. Using numerical solutions of the Lyapunov equation and steady-state mean values, we quantify the Gaussian quantum coherence of the system. Our results show that the presence of OPA, coherent feedback, atomic ensembles, and strong laser power significantly enhance quantum coherence, while higher atomic decay rates, relative phase, and temperatures reduce it. This approach not only boosts quantum coherence but also improves resilience to temperature fluctuations, providing a robust foundation for quantum information processing.

Enhancing the Steady-State Entanglement between a Laguerre–Gaussian-Cavity Mode and a Rotating Mirror via Cross-Kerr Nonlinearity

Guilin Lai, Sumei Huang, Li Deng +1 more

Quantum entanglement will play an important role in future quantum technologies. Here, we theoretically study the steady-state entanglement between a cavity field and a macroscopic rotating mirror in a Laguerre–Gaussian-(LG)-cavity optomechanical system with cross-Kerr nonlinearity. Logarithmic negativity is used to quantify the steady-state entanglement between the cavity and mechanical modes. We analyze the impacts of the cross-Kerr coupling strength, the cavity detuning, the input laser power, the topological charge of the LG-cavity mode, and the temperature of the environment on the steady-state optomechanical entanglement. We find that cross-Kerr nonlinearity can significantly enhance steady-state optomechanical entanglement and make steady-state optomechanical entanglement more robust against the temperature of the thermal environment.

Enhanced multipartite entanglement via quantum coherence with an atom-assisted optomechanical system

Xihua Yang, Jiaqi Liu, Xiaona Yan +1 more

Abstract We present a scheme to significantly enhance multipartite entanglement with an atom-assisted single-cavity optomechanical system. By embedding an ensemble of Λ-type three-level atoms into the cavity, the stationary tripartite entanglement among two longitudinal cavity modes and a mirror oscillation mode can be greatly enhanced due to quantum coherence induced between the two lower atomic states when one (another) cavity mode is driven at the red (blue) mechanical sideband, and both cavity modes are blue-detuned by the mechanical frequency to the respective atomic resonant transitions; moreover, strong light–light–atom–mirror quadripartite entanglement can also be obtained. The present hybrid system can serve as a promising platform for realizing various quantum protocols, and may find potential applications in quantum information processing and quantum networks.
