Optical wavelength conversion of quantum states with optomechanics
Optical wavelength conversion of quantum states with optomechanics
An optomechanical interface that converts quantum states between optical fields with distinct wavelengths is proposed. A mechanical mode couples to two optical modes via radiation pressure and mediates the quantum state mapping between the two optical modes. A sequence of optomechanical $\ensuremath{\pi}/2$ pulses enables state-swapping between optical and mechanical states, …
