Abstract

A theoretical scheme is proposed for improving the performance of cooling and entanglement, where the physical model is based on a double cavity optomechanical system assisted by the field-mediated coherent feedback. The cooling performance is evaluated by calculating the final mean phonon number. The steady-state bipartite entanglement between the optical mode and mechanical mode is measured by the logarithmic negativity. The result manifests that with assistance of the quantum coherent feedback, the mechanical resonator (MR) can be cooled close to its quantum ground state and the steady-state optomechanical entanglement is simultaneously created, all of which are obtained under the condition beyond the resolved sideband. The presented feedback strategy is measurement-independent, which can effectively preserve the quantum coherence of system. The scheme is conducive to relaxing the current experimental condition and it may provide a new path for the optomechanical manipulation involving the low-frequency MR.
