Abstract

In this paper, a scheme is presented in which two distant and remote optoical modes entangle in the pulsed driving regimes. Micro-macro entanglement of light demonstrated experimentally and considered theoretically in one system with different macroscopic components. Two remote systems are derived by the pulsed driving sources. We have sent two squeezed states that both of them undergo a large displacements then interact with nanomechanical resonator and retrieve. Using homodyne detection scheme, the entanglement between these two retrieved states has been investigated.

We propose to create and detect optomechanical entanglement by storing one component of an entangled state of light in a mechanical resonator and then retrieving it. Using micro-macro entanglement of light as recently demonstrated experimentally, one can then create optomechanical entangled states where the components of the superposition are macroscopically different. We apply this general approach to two-mode squeezed states where one mode has undergone a large displacement. Based on an analysis of the relevant experimental imperfections, the scheme appears feasible with current technology.

Entanglement swapping with local certification: Application to remote micromechanical resonators

M. Abdi, Stefano Pirandola, P. Tombesi +1 more

Entanglement swapping allows to entangle two distant systems which never interacted. This paper applies this protocol to an initial tripartite systems of two identical cavity optomechanical systems. Each system is formed by a micro-mechanical resonator playing the role of the remote mode, coupled to two independently driven optical cavity modes with different frequencies, whose output field are sent to Bell and certification modes.

Generating robust optical entanglement in weak-coupling optomechanical systems

Mark C. Kuzyk, S. J. van Enk, Hailin Wang

A pulsed scheme for generating robust optical entanglement via the coupling of two optical modes to a mechanical oscillator is proposed. This scheme is inspired by the S\o{}rensen-M\o{}lmer approach for entangling trapped ions in a thermal environment and is based on the use of optical driving pulses that are slightly detuned from the respective sideband resonance. We show that for certain pulse durations, the optomechanical interaction can return the mechanical oscillator to its initial state, disentangling the mechanical and optical systems. The corresponding optical entanglement generation is robust against thermal mechanical noise in the weak as well as the strong-coupling regimes. Significant optical entanglement can be generated in the weak-coupling regime, even in the presence of a large thermal phonon occupation.

Generating mechanical and optomechanical entanglement via pulsed interaction and measurement

J Clarke, P Sahium, Kiran E. Khosla +3 more

Abstract Entanglement generation at a macroscopic scale offers an exciting avenue to develop new quantum technologies and study fundamental physics on a tabletop. Cavity quantum optomechanics provides an ideal platform to generate and exploit such phenomena owing to the precision of quantum optics combined with recent experimental advances in optomechanical devices. In this work, we propose schemes operating outside the resolved-sideband regime, to prepare and verify both optical–mechanical and mechanical–mechanical entanglement. Our schemes employ pulsed interactions with a duration much less than the mechanical period and, together with homodyne measurements, can both generate and characterize these types of entanglement. To improve the performance of our schemes, a precooling stage comprising prior pulses can be utilized to increase the amount of entanglement prepared, and local optical squeezers may be used to provide resilience against open-system dynamics. The entanglement generated by our schemes is quantified using the logarithmic negativity and is analysed with respect to the strength of the pulsed optomechanical interactions for realistic experimental scenarios including mechanical decoherence and optical loss. Two separate schemes for mechanical entanglement generation are introduced and compared: one scheme based on an optical interferometric design, and the other comprising sequential optomechanical interactions. The pulsed nature of our protocols provides more direct access to these quantum correlations in the time domain, with applications including quantum metrology and tests of quantum decoherence. By considering a parameter set based on recent experiments, the feasibility to generate significant entanglement with our schemes, even with large optical losses, is demonstrated.

Entanglement distribution among distinct mechanical nodes in a quantum network

Zhi-Yuan Fan, Liu-Yong Cheng

We propose two schemes to achieve remote entanglement distribution between two mechanical nodes with a significant frequency mismatch, based on optomechanical systems. The first scheme utilizes the physical mechanism to redistribute the quantum entanglement initially established in a dispersively-coupled optomechanical system with a megahertz mechanical resonance to a distant optomechanical system which embodies the tripleresonant interaction induced by the scattering of gigahertz mechanical phonon. We also provide a fast optical pulse protocol to realize the long-distance entanglement distribution from the optomechanical system supporting the gigahertz mechanical mode to the megahertz mechanical mode included in a distant optomechanical system. Specifically, these two schemes respectively demonstrate the megahertz-to-gigahertz and gigahertz-tomegahertz entanglement distribution in the quantum network of optical photons and phonons. This work may facilitate the application of various mechanical systems in hybrid quantum network-based quantum technologies and fundamental physical research.

Macroscopic Mechanical Entanglement Stability in Two Distant Dissipative Optomechanical Systems

M. Rafeie, Mohammad Kazem Tavassoly, M. Setodeh Kheirabady

Abstract A theoretical scheme for the stable entanglement generation of two remote mechanical modes is introduced. Two identical optomechanical systems, each constituting a single‐mode optical field as well as a qubit and a moveable mirror driven by an external pump field, are considered. To make the model more realistic, atomic, photonic, and phononic dissipations are considered. The time‐dependent state of each subsystem is obtained, analytically. Then, by an appropriate Bell‐state measurement (BSM) on the state of the whole system (first approach), the entanglement of two mechanical modes is created. As a second parallel approach, appropriate atomic measurement is applied after the BSM. According to these numerical simulations via concurrence, the noteworthy features are as follows. There exists optimum value of photon–phonon coupling strength for obtaining the steady‐state entanglement; by choosing appropriate values of dissipation, photon–phonon coupling, and pump amplitude, a significant degree and stable entanglement between the two mechanical modes are accessible. The present scheme opens new practical perspectives in constructing stable entanglement between two remote mechanical modes and can be helpful to realize quantum memories for quantum information processing and establishing long‐distance quantum communication networks.
