Nonreciprocal optomechanical entanglement in an asymmetric Fabry-Perot cavity
Abstract
Nonreciprocal transmission (classical nonreciprocity) in optomechanical systems based on asymmetric Fabry-Perot (F-P) cavities has been theoretically proposed and experimentally demonstrated. However, nonreciprocal quantum effects, particularly nonreciprocal quantum entanglement, remain unexplored in such systems. Here, we propose to generate nonreciprocal optomechanical entanglement in an asymmetric F-P cavity and discuss the connection between the nonreciprocal transmission and nonreciprocal quantum entanglement. We reproduce the nonreciprocal transmission spectra by solving the quantum Langevin equations, and then discuss the optimal parameters to achieve nonreciprocal optomechanical entanglement in the system. We show that a greater and more robust optomechanical entanglement can be approached in the asymmetric F-P cavities, in comparing with the symmetric cavities. Furthermore, we find that the degrees of classical and quantum nonreciprocities do not exhibit positive correlation as expected. Our work shows that the classical and quantum nonreciprocities can be realized simultaneously in the asymmetric F-P cavities, which provide a platform to explore the connection between classical and quantum nonreciprocities.
