Abstract

In this paper, we investigated the quantum correlation of nano-electro-optomechanical system enhanced by an optical parametric amplifier (OPA) and Coulomb-type interaction. In particular, we consider a hybrid system consisting of a cavity and two charged mechanical oscillators with an OPA, where the optical cavity mode is coupled with a charged mechanical oscillator via radiation pressure, and the two charged mechanical oscillators are coupled through a Coulomb interaction. We use logarithmic negativity to quantify quantum entanglement, and quantum discord to measure the quantumness correlation between the two mechanical oscillators. We characterize quantum steering using the steerability between the two mechanical oscillators. Our results show that the presence of OPA and strong Coulomb coupling enhances the quantum correlations between the two mechanical oscillators. In addition, Coulomb interactions are more prominent in quantum correlations. Besides, in the presence of OPA, the maximum amount of quantum entanglement, quantum steering, and quantum discord were achieved between the two mechanical oscillators is greater than in the absence of OPA. Moreover, a proper phase choice of the optical field driving the OPA enhances quantum correlations under suitable conditions. We obtain quantum entanglement confines quantum steering and quantum discord beyond entanglement. Furthermore, quantum entanglement, quantum steering, and quantum discord decrease rapidly with increasing temperature as a result of decoherence. In addition, quantum discord persists at higher temperature values, although the quantum entanglement between the systems also vanishes completely. Our proposed scheme enhances quantum correlation and proves robust against fluctuations in the bath environment. We believe that the present scheme of quantum correlation provides a promising platform for the realization of continuous variable quantum information processing.

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.

Quantum correlations in optomechanical system in the presence of optical feedback

Sitotaw Eshete

In this paper, we investigate the dynamics of quantum correlations for the continuous-variable bipartite optomechanical system in the presence of homodyne mediated quantum feedback. The system is constructed using the Fabry–Perot cavity and a mechanical oscillator. In detail, we have studied the quantum entanglement via logarithmic negativity, quantum discord, and quantum steering between the optical and mechanical modes. The results show that the maximum entanglement between the optical and mechanical modes occurred out of the resonance frequency at the steady-state region due to the presence of the optical feedback. We also employ quantum steering to see the steerability between the modes. It is observed that the quantum entanglement increases when the effective detuning frequency increases, however, the quantum discord and steering decrease when the effective detuning frequency increases for a given quantum feedback strength with other parameters of the system are to be fixed. Moreover, the presence of quantum feedback has an enhancement effect on the quantum correlations.

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.

Parametric Control of Two-Mode Squeezed Light via Engineered Reservoirs and Tunable Optomechanical Interfaces

Tarekegn Tarekegn-Ossie-Hundebo

Quantum optomechanical systems enable versatile control of non-classical light. We study two-mode squeezed-light generation in a driven optomechanical cavity with parametrically amplified optical modes coupled to mechanical resonator. Coherent driving reveals a rich control landscape where parametric nonlinearity, optomechanical coupling, and reservoir interactions jointly tailor quantum correlations-including two-mode squeezing, entanglement, steering, and discord. Remarkably, mechanical oscillators not only mediate optical entanglement but also act as a squeezing resource, enabling enhancement or suppression of quantum correlations via parameter tuning. We derive steady-state second-order moments and closed-form covariance matrix expressions, quantifying entanglement via logarithmic negativity, steering via Reid criterion, and discord via von Neumann entropy, providing a comprehensive framework for optimized generation of quantum correlations in hybrid quantum systems.

Entanglement and output squeezing in a distant nano-electro-optomechanical system generated by optical parametric amplifiers

Guixia Pan, Ruijie Xiao, Chengbo Zhai

Abstract We investigate the entanglement phenomena assisted by a distant nono-electro-optomechanical system with two optical parametric amplifiers. The system consists of two optomechanical cavities coupling to two charged mechanical resonators via Coulomb interaction. Under suitable conditions, the movable mirrors and the two distant cavity fields can exhibit entanglement. The entanglement is strongly manipulated by the parametric gain and the Coulomb coupling. Furthermore, because of the introduction of the charged mechanical oscillators, the entanglement between the two cavity modes and between the movable mirrors displays a splitting phenomenon. We also study the squeezing spectrum of the cavity fields. The results reveal that the output squeezing of the two cavity fields is affected by the frequency of the mirror oscillation and the parametric gain.

Steady-state entanglement in a hybrid optomechanical system enhanced by optical parametric amplifiers

Abraham Abebe Kibret, Tewodros Yirgashewa Darge, Tesfay Gebremariam Tesfahannes

In this paper, we investigate the degree of steady-state entanglement using a hybrid optomechanical system, where the separate cavities contain a degenerate optical parametric amplifier (DOPA). Particularly, under the linearization approximation, the steady-state entanglement is quantified through logarithmic negativity. The bipartite entanglement between cavity-mechanical oscillator modes and two cavity modes is analyzed through the applicable choice of nonlinear gain of OPA, optical cavity detuning, and cavity-cavity coupling strength. It is found that the steady-state entanglement increases with the nonlinear gain of OPA medium and normalized detuning. We further emphasize the influence of cavity-cavity coupling parameter on the bipartite entanglement, and the generation of entanglement can be transferred entirely due to the coupling strengths. The main contribution of coupling parameters on the entanglement of the two modes of mechanical oscillators significantly altered and increased. The observed possibility of transferring the emerging entanglement of the states of light in the two cavities to the modes of the accompanying mechanical oscillators is expected to be a valuable asset in the practical realization of quantum information processing .
