Abstract

In this paper, we study the remote bipartite entanglement and correlations between the neighboring cavity and movable mirror using an optomechanical array, in which the optical cavities are coupled to one oscillating end-mirror through a photon hopping process. Under the linearization approximation, the stationary bipartite continuous-variable entanglement and quantum correlations are quantified through logarithmic negativity and correlation functions of two non-Hermitian operators, respectively. Remarkably, our numerical simulation exhibits a generation of bipartite correlation behavior between cavity–oscillating mirror and cavity–cavity subsystems through the applicable choice of optical cavity detunings and photon hopping coupling strength. The system also offers the possibility of remote bipartite entanglement with the neighboring cavity and movable mirror. We further show that the amount of quantum correlation between subsystems can be achieved for small photon hopping coupling strengths and small effective temperatures. It is found that the generation of bipartite quantum correlations between the cavity mode and oscillating mirror can be transferred entirely through photon hopping coupling strength. Our results may have potential applications for the realization of optomechanical crystals platform and continuous-variable quantum information interfaces.
