Entanglement, squeezing and non-locality limits in filtered two-mode squeezed mixed states
Optics Express
|June 14, 2025
Summary
We explored entanglement and non-locality in squeezed mixed states using spectral filters. Optimal conditions were found with identical filters, while non-identical filters disrupted these properties.
Area of Science:
- Quantum optics
- Quantum information theory
Background:
- Continuous variable (CV) states are crucial for quantum information processing.
- Entanglement and non-locality are key resources for quantum technologies.
- Optomechanical systems offer practical platforms for studying quantum phenomena.
Purpose of the Study:
- To investigate entanglement and non-locality in specific spectral components of CV two-mode squeezed mixed states.
- To determine the limits of entanglement and non-locality under varying filter conditions.
- To explore the relationship between hybrid quadrature squeezing and entanglement measures.
Main Methods:
- Utilizing filters on output modes of two-mode squeezed mixed states.
- Analyzing spectral components to quantify entanglement and non-locality.
- Evaluating the squeezing of two-mode hybrid quadrature as an entanglement witness.
Main Results:
- Entanglement and non-locality peak when identical spectral filters are applied.
- Increasing input squeezing with non-identical filters leads to a bell-shaped disruption of entanglement and non-locality.
- Precise boundaries for entanglement and non-locality were established.
- Two-mode hybrid quadrature squeezing was shown to be analogous to logarithmic negativity.
Conclusions:
- Spectral filtering in optomechanical systems significantly impacts entanglement and non-locality.
- Filter characteristics and input squeezing levels are critical for preserving quantum correlations.
- Hybrid quadrature squeezing provides a viable measure of entanglement in these systems.

¹H NMR: Interpreting Distorted and Overlapping Signals
1.0K
Spin systems where the difference in chemical shifts of the coupled nuclei is greater than ten times J are called first-order spin systems. These nuclei are weakly coupled, and their chemical shifts and coupling constant can generally be estimated from the well-separated signals in the spectrum.
As Δν decreases and the signals move closer, the doublets appear increasingly distorted. The intensities of the inner lines increase at the cost of those of the outer lines as the signals are...

Spin–Spin Coupling: Two-Bond Coupling (Geminal Coupling)
984
Two NMR-active nuclei bonded to a central atom can be involved in geminal or two-bond coupling. Geminal coupling is commonly seen between diastereotopic protons in chiral molecules and unsymmetrical alkenes, among others.
The central atom need not be NMR-active because its electrons are affected by the electron polarization of the spin-active atoms. However, spin information is transmitted less effectively than in one-bond coupling, and 2J values are usually weaker than 1J values. The energy of...

First Law: Particles in Two-dimensional Equilibrium
5.0K
Recall that a particle in equilibrium is one for which the external forces are balanced. Static equilibrium involves objects at rest, and dynamic equilibrium involves objects in motion without acceleration; but it is important to remember that these conditions are relative. For instance, an object may be at rest when viewed from one frame of reference, but that same object would appear to be in motion when viewed by someone moving at a constant velocity.

Interpreting ¹H NMR Signal Splitting: The (n + 1) Rule
1.2K
In the AX proton spin system, proton A can sense the two spin states of a coupled proton X, resulting in a doublet NMR signal with two peaks of equal (1:1) intensity. When proton A is coupled to two equivalent protons (AX2 spin system), the spin states of each X can be aligned with or against the external field, creating three possible scenarios. This results in a 1:2:1 triplet signal, where the central peak corresponds to the chemical shift of A and is twice as large or intense as the...

The Uncertainty Principle
23.2K
Werner Heisenberg considered the limits of how accurately one can measure properties of an electron or other microscopic particles. He determined that there is a fundamental limit to how accurately one can measure both a particle’s position and its momentum simultaneously. The more accurate the measurement of the momentum of a particle is known, the less accurate the position at that time is known and vice versa. This is what is now called the Heisenberg uncertainty principle. He...

First Law: Particles in One-dimensional Equilibrium
6.9K
Newton's first law of motion states that a body at rest remains at rest, or if in motion, remains in motion at constant velocity, unless acted on by a net external force. It also states that there must be a cause for any change in velocity (a change in either magnitude or direction) to occur. This cause is a net external force. For example, consider what happens to an object sliding along a rough horizontal surface. The object quickly grinds to a halt, due to the net force of friction. If...
