Quantum optomechanics beyond rotating-wave-approximation: Towards optomechanical entanglement — Simon Gröblacher1,3, •Sebastian Hofer1, Michael Vanner1, Klemens Hammerer2,4, and Markus Aspelmeyer1 — 1Fakultät für Physik, Universität Wien, 1090 Wien, Österreich — 2Institut für Theoretische Physik, Universität Innsbruck, 6020 Innsbruck, Österreich — 3Institute for Quantum Optics and Quantum Information (IQOQI), Austrian Academy of Sciences, 1090 Wien, Österreich — 4Institute for Quantum Optics and Quantum Information (IQOQI), Austrian Academy of Sciences, 6020 Innsbruck, Österreich
We investigate the dynamics of a mechanical oscillator coupled to an optical cavity by radiation pressure. Going into the strong coupling regime enables us to access dynamics beyond the rotating-wave-approximation. This sets the way for the creation of nonclassical quantum states and optomechanical entanglement.
