Optical mode entanglement generation from an optomechanical nanobeam

Nano-optomechanical systems, capable of supporting enhanced light-matter interactions, have wide applications in studying quantum entanglement and quantum information processors. Yet, preparing optical telecom-band entanglement within a single optomechanical nanobeam remains blank. In this work, we propose and design a triply resonant optomechanical nanobeam to generate steady-state entangled propagating optical modes and present its quantum-enhanced performance for teleportation-based quantum state transfer under realistic conditions. Remarkably, the entanglement quantified by logarithmic negativity can obtain EN = 1. Furthermore, with structural imperfections induced by realistic fabrication processes considered, the device still shows great robustness. Together with quantum interfaces between mechanical motion and solid-state qubit processors, the proposed device potentially paves the way for versatile nodes in long-distance quantum networks.
