The optomechanical radiation pressure interaction provides the means to create entanglement between a mechanical oscillator and an electromagnetic field. In this talk I show how we can utilize this entanglement within the framework of time-continuous quantum control in order to engineer the quantum state of the mechanical system. Specifically, I analyze how to prepare low-entropy mechanical states by feedback cooling operated in the blue detuned regime, the creation of bipartite mechanical entanglement via time-continuous entanglement swapping, and preparation of a squeezed mechanical state by time-continuous teleportation [1]. Furthermore I discuss how additionally coupling the light field to a qubit can be used to prepare non-classical mechanical quantum states. These protocols extend earlier work [2] analyzing pulsed optomechanical entanglement creation—recently realized experimentally in [3]—and teleportation. They are all feasible in optomechanical systems exhibiting a cooperativity larger than 1.
