Unconditional Wigner-negative mechanical entanglement with linear-and-quadratic optomechanical interactions
Peter McConnell, Oussama Houhou, Matteo Brunelli +1
The generation of entangled states that display negative values of the Wigner function in the quantum phase space is a challenging task, particularly elusive for massive, and possi…
Dissipative synthesis of mechanical Fock-like states
Matteo Brunelli, Oussama Houhou
The observation of genuine quantum features of nano-mechanical motion is a key goal for both fundamental and applied quantum science. To this end, a promising approach is the stabi…
Quantum simulation of multiphoton and nonlinear dissipative spin-boson models
Ricardo Puebla, Jorge Casanova, Oussama Houhou +2
We present a framework for the realization of dissipative evolutions of spin-boson models, including multiphoton exchange dynamics, as well as nonlinear transition rates. Our appro…
Unconditional measurement-based quantum computation with optomechanical continuous variables
Oussama Houhou, Darren W. Moore, Sougato Bose +1
Universal quantum computation encoded over continuous variables can be achieved via Gaussian measurements acting on entangled non-Gaussian states. However, due to the weakness of a…
Linear-and-quadratic reservoir engineering of non-Gaussian states
Matteo Brunelli, Oussama Houhou
We study the dissipative preparation of pure non-Gaussian states of a target mode which is coupled both linearly and quadratically to an auxiliary damped mode. We show that any pur…
Unconditional preparation of nonclassical states via linear-and-quadratic optomechanics
Matteo Brunelli, Oussama Houhou, Darren W. Moore +3
Reservoir engineering enables the robust preparation of pure quantum states in noisy environments. We show how a new family of quantum states of a mechanical oscillator can be stab…
Arbitrary multimode Gaussian operations on mechanical cluster states
Darren W. Moore, Oussama Houhou, Alessandro Ferraro
We consider opto- and electro-mechanical quantum systems composed of a driven cavity mode interacting with a set of mechanical resonators. It has been proposed that the latter can…
