Quantum state preparation of a mechanical resonator using an optomechanical geometric phase

arXiv:1210.0642 · doi:10.1088/1367-2630/15/4/043025

Abstract

We demonstrate that a geometric phase, generated via a sequence of four optomechanical interactions, can be used to increase, or generate nonlinearities in the unitary evolution of a mechanical resonator. Interactions of this form lead to new mechanisms for preparing mechanical squeezed states, and preparation of non-classical states with significant Wigner negativity.
