چکیده

It is shown that radiation pressure can be profitably used to entangle macroscopic oscillators like movable mirrors, using present technology. We prove a new sufficient criterion for entanglement and show that the achievable entanglement is robust against thermal noise. Its signature can be revealed using common optomechanical readout apparatus.

Macroscopic entanglement by entanglement swapping.

We present a scheme for entangling two micromechanical oscillators. The scheme exploits the quantum effects of radiation pressure and it is based on a novel application of entanglement swapping, where standard optical measurements are used to generate purely mechanical entanglement. The scheme is presented by first solving the general problem of entanglement swapping between arbitrary bipartite...

Entangling movable mirrors in a double cavity system

– We propose a double-cavity set-up capable of generating a stationary entangled state of two movable mirrors at cryogenic temperatures. The scheme is based on the optimal transfer of squeezing of input optical fields to mechanical vibrational modes of the mirrors, realized by the radiation pressure of the intracavity light. We show that the presence of macroscopic entanglement can be demonstra...

High-sensitivity force measurement using entangled probes

We show the possibility to improve the measurement sensitivity of a weak force by using massive probes in an entangled state. This latter can be achieved by exploiting radiation pressure effects. 03.65.Ta, 42.50.Vk, 03.65.Ud Typeset using REVTEX 1 Since the original formulation of quantum mechanics, entanglement has been recognized as one of its most puzzling features [1,2]. During the last few...

Entangling two macroscopic mechanical mirrors in a two-cavity optomechanical system

We propose a simple method to generate quantum entanglement between two macroscopic mechanical resonators in a two-cavity optomechanical system. This entanglement is induced by the radiation pressure of a single photon hopping between the two cavities. Our results are analytical, so that the entangled states are explicitly shown. Up to local operations, these states are two-mode three-component...

Scheme for teleportation of quantum states onto a mechanical resonator.

We propose an experimentally feasible scheme to teleport an unkown quantum state onto the vibrational degree of freedom of a macroscopic mirror. The quantum channel between the two parties is established by exploiting radiation pressure effects.
