Entanglement Enhancement in an Electro-Optomechanical System via an Auxiliary Cavity and Optical Parametric Amplification
摘要
We theoretically study the enhancement of quantum entanglement in a hybrid electro-optomechanical system consisting of a main optomechanical cavity and an auxiliary optical cavity. The two optical modes are coupled through photon-hopping interaction, whereas the two nanomechanical oscillators, by means of tunable Coulomb interaction. An optical parametric amplifier is also provided in the auxiliary cavity for nonlinear gain and phase control. We solve the linearized quantum Langevin equations and use the formalism of covariance matrix to quantify bipartite entanglement between different subsystems using logarithmic negativity. According to our results, the photon-hopping coupling indeed enhances the entanglement between these mechanical oscillators and makes it more resistant against thermal-decoherence so that this entanglement persists up to higher temperatures. We prove that the Coulomb interaction is a necessary condition for mechanical entanglement in which its strength
