Higher-order exceptional points and enhanced quantum squeezing in a pseudo-Hermitian semiconductor optomechanical system

We investigate higher-order exceptional points and quantum squeezing of exciton polaritons in a pseudo-Hermitian semiconductor optomechanical system. We show that a third-order exceptional point (EP3) can emerge from the tripartite coupling among photons, excitons, and phonons under pseudo-Hermitian conditions. A pronounced two-mode quantum squeezing of exciton polaritons is revealed, and we demonstrate that this squeezing is significantly enhanced in the vicinity of the EP3. Furthermore, we find that in the PT-symmetric phase, the squeezing dynamics produce a frequency comb of exciton polaritons, whereas the squeezing remains constant over time in the PT-symmetry broken phase and exactly at the EP3. The sudden change in quantum squeezing dynamics can be used to probe the phase transition and the EP3. Our work opens a pathway to manipulate quantum squeezing in semiconductor optomechanical platforms, offering potential advantages for quantum sensing and metrology.

Quantum-enhanced distributed network sensing using multiple quantum resources

We propose a theoretical scheme for quantum enhanced distributed network sensing, targeting multiphase estimation by leveraging multiple quantum resources. Specifically, we investigate the performance advantage in a distributed quantum network (DQN) for multiphase sensing by integrating three types of quantum resources(TQRs): quantum catalysis, entanglement, and squeezing. Our results reveal that employing all three TQRs leads to better sensing performance than using only two TQRs under both lossless and lossy conditions, with precision approaching the Heisenberg limit. We further demonstrate that partial quantum catalysis providesa stronger precision advantage than global catalysis in both ideal and noisy regimes. We identify a practical homodyne measurement scheme for globally and partially catalyzed multimode W type coherent states, whose measurement sensitivity can approach the corresponding quantum Cramer Rao bound. In this practical setting, partial catalysis also yields better measurement sensitivity than global catalysis. Moreover, under photon loss, both global and partial catalysis of multimode W type coherent states exhibit a loss catalysis dual enhanced sensitivity region. These findings highlight the quantum-enhanced advantages conferred by hybrid quantum resources for practical DQN sensing applications. Our work opens a way for realizing quantum-enhanced DQN sensing.

Nonreciprocal entanglement in exciton optomechanics with an optical parametric amplifier

We study nonreciprocal bipartite and tripartite entanglement in a spinning exciton-optomechanical system (EOMS) with an optical parametric amplifier (OPA). We demonstrate that nonreciprocal entanglement among photons, excitons, and phonons can be achieved under experimentally feasible parameters. We find that the nonreciprocal entanglement induced by Sagnac effects can be regulated through the OPA. Particularly, We show that the OPA significantly enhances photon-exciton entanglement and tripartite entanglement but weakens photon-phonon and exciton-phonon entanglement. Moreover, we find that the photon-exciton nonreciprocal entanglement not only can be generated at room temperature and even higher temperature but also exhibits highly robustness to cavity dissipation. Our works open a way to manipulate the room-temperature nonreciprocal entanglement, which may be useful for developing nonreciprocal quantum technologies.

Enhancing the sensitivity of quantum optomechanical gyroscope by optical Kerr effect

We propose a theoretical scheme to enhance the sensitivity of a quantum optomechanical gyroscope (QOMG) by optical Kerr effect. We utilize quantum Fisher information (QFI) to evaluate the metrological potential of the QOMG scheme. It is found that the Kerr interaction can significantly enhances the sensitivity of the QOMG. We observe the super-Hesenberg scaling of parameter estimation precision. Furthermore, we also evaluate the performance of QOMG for the quadrature measurement. It is indicated that the sensitivity in the quadrature measurement scheme can saturate the quantum Crmamér-Rao bound. We study the effect of the driving and dissipation of the optical cavity on the QFI, and find that the sensitivity can be manipulated by changing the driving while dissipation decreases the sensitivity. The work shows that the photon nonlinear interaction can improve sensitivity of QOMG, and demonstrates a valuable quantum resource for the QOMG. These results could have a wide-ranging impact on developing high-performance QOMG in the future.

Quantum Nonlinear Effect in Dissipatively Coupled Optomechanical System

A full-quantum approach is used to study quantum nonlinear properties of a compound Michelson-Sagnac interferometer optomechanical system. The effective Hamiltonian shows that both dissipative and dispersive couplings possess imaginary- and real-Kerr nonlinearities. And unexpectedly, the nonlinearities caused by the dissipative coupling have non-Hermitian Hamiltonian-like properties. It can protect the quantum nature of the dispersive coupling beyond the traditional dissipation of the system. This protection mechanism allows the system to exhibit strong quantum nonlinear effects in the parameter region of the hyperbolic function $J^2 = Δ_c Δ_e$. Moreover, we can obtain strong anti-bunching effects whether in strong or weak coupling regimes with the help of the dispersive and dissipative couplings jointly. It may provide a new perspective to experimentally realize and study the strong quantum nonlinear effects.
