Abstract

Interfacing between matter qubits and light is a crucial provision for numerous quantum technological applications. However, a generic qubit may not directly interact with a relevant optical field mode, and hence, one could necessitate adjusting frequencies to match resonance conditions between parties. In this work, we show how a parametric coupling of the qubit with a mechanical oscillator, in conjunction with the trilinear radiation pressure coupling of the same object with light, can induce maximal qubit-light entanglement at an optimal time. Furthermore, we show how our method enables conditional (dynamical) nonclassical state preparation of the optical field via qubit measurement in the weak (moderate-to-strong) optomechanical coupling regime. Our scheme benefits from not requiring any cooling of the mechanical component and not needing an adjusting of the detunings and transition frequencies to have resonance between any pairs of quantum systems.
