Quantum coherence is one of the most intriguing applications of quantum mechanics, and has led to interesting phenomena and uncommon results. Here we show that in a stark contrast to the usual red-detuned condition to observe bistability in single-mode optomechanics, the optical intensities exhibit bistability for all values of cavity-laser detuning due to intermode coupling induced by the two-photon coherence. Interestingly, an unconventional bistability with ribbon-shaped hysteresis can be observed for blue-detuned laser frequencies. We also demonstrate that the two-photon coherence leads to a strong entanglement between the movable mirrors in the adiabatic regime. Surprisingly, the mirror-mirror entanglement is shown to persist for environment temperature of the phonon bath up to 12 K using experimental parameters.

A strategy for generating entanglement in two separated optomechanical oscillators is analysed, using entangled radiation produced from downconversion and stored in an initiating cavity. We show that the use of pulsed entanglement with optimally shap
ed temporal modes can efficiently transfer quantum entanglement into a mechanical mode, then remove it after a fixed waiting time for measurement. This protocol could provide new avenues to test for bounds on decoherence in massive systems that are spatially separated, as originally suggested by Wendell Furry [1] not long after the discussion by Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) and Schrodinger of entanglement.
We investigate coherence in one- and two-photon optical systems, both theoretically and experimentally. In the first case, we develop the density operator representing a single photon state subjected to a non-dissipative coupling between observed (po
larization) and unobserved (frequency) degrees of freedom. We show that an implementation of ``bang-bang quantum control protects photon polarization information from certain types of decoherence. In the second case, we investigate the existence of a decoherence-free subspace of the Hilbert space of two-photon polarization states under the action of a similar coupling. The density operator representation is developed analytically and solutions are obtained numerically. NOTE: This manuscript is taken from the authors undergraduate thesis (A.B. Dartmouth College, June 2000, advised by Dr. Walter E. Lawrence), under the supervision of Dr. Paul G. Kwiat.
Precise measurement of the angular deviation of an object is a common task in science and technology. Many methods use light for this purpose. Some of these exploit interference effects to achieve technological advantages, such as amplification effec
ts, or simplified measurement devices. However, all of these schemes require phase stability to be useful. Here we show theoretically and experimentally that this drawback can be lifted by utilizing two-photon interference, which is known to be less sensitive to phase fluctuations. Our results show that non-classical interference can provide a path towards robust interferometric sensing, allowing for increased metrological precision in the presence of phase noise.
We investigate a general scheme for generating, either dynamically or in the steady state, continuous variable entanglement between two mechanical resonators with different frequencies. We employ an optomechanical system in which a single optical cav
ity mode driven by a suitably chosen two-tone field is coupled to the two resonators. Significantly large mechanical entanglement can be achieved, which is extremely robust with respect to temperature.
The ability to coherently control mechanical systems with optical fields has made great strides over the past decade, and now includes the use of photon counting techniques to detect the non-classical nature of mechanical states. These techniques may
soon be used to perform an opto-mechanical Bell test, hence highlighting the potential of cavity opto-mechanics for device-independent quantum information processing. Here, we propose a witness which reveals opto-mechanical entanglement without any constraint on the global detection efficiencies in a setup allowing one to test a Bell inequality. While our witness relies on a well-defined description and correct experimental calibration of the measurements, it does not need a detailed knowledge of the functioning of the opto-mechanical system. A feasibility study including dominant sources of noise and loss shows that it can readily be used to reveal opto-mechanical entanglement in present-day experiments with photonic crystal nanobeam resonators.
