Abstract
Quantum entanglement is pivotal in modern quantum technologies, spanning applications from quantum networks to quantum metrology. Controllable quantum entanglement in cavity optomechanical systems has been an enduring pursuit. We propose a unique method for flexible manipulation and switching of optomechanical entanglement in a squeezed-cavity-assisted optomechanical system consisting of a χ(2)-nonlinear optical cavity and an optomechanical cavity. Squeezing the nonlinear optical cavity through parametric pumping allows effective control of light-light and light-vibration interactions within the system. This capability of the squeezed system plays a key role in manipulating quantum entanglement. We find that quantum entanglement between the unsqueezed cavity mode and the mechanical mode can be effectively regulated by adjusting the pump laser parameters. Furthermore, by turning the phase of the pump, we can achieve highly flexible quantum switching between entanglement and separability. Additionally, we demonstrate increased entanglement between the squeezed cavity mode and the mechanical mode when completely suppressing the pump-induced optical input noise. Our findings pave the way not only towards the manipulation and protection of fragile quantum entanglement but also to achieve photon-phonon quantum control by exploiting quantum squeezing.
