“…In such a system, when the magnon (optical cavity) mode is driven by a red-detuned microwave (laser) field, the magnomechanical (optomechanical) beam-splitter interaction is activated, which enables the microwave-to-optics conversion via the mechanical mediation. Moreover, the interference effect between the two mechanical motions is also observed by applying a red-(blue-)detuned drive field to the magnon (cavity) mode [163].…”

Hybrid quantum systems based on magnons in magnetic materials have made significant progress in the past decade. They are built based on the couplings of magnons with microwave photons, optical photons, vibration phonons, and superconducting qubits. In particular, the interactions among magnons, microwave cavity photons, and vibration phonons form the system of cavity magnomechanics (CMM), which lies in the interdisciplinary field of cavity QED, magnonics, quantum optics, and quantum information. Here, we review the experimental and theoretical progress of this emerging field. We first introduce the underlying theories of the magnomechanical coupling, and then some representative classical phenomena that have been experimentally observed, including magnomechanically induced transparency, magnomechanical dynamical backaction, magnon-phonon cross-Kerr nonlinearity, etc. We also discuss a number of theoretical proposals, which show the potential of the CMM system for preparing different kinds of quantum states of magnons, phonons, and photons, and hybrid systems combining magnomechanics and optomechanics and relevant quantum protocols based on them. Finally, we summarize this review and provide an outlook for the future research directions in this field.

“…One can also consider using the direct mechanical contact approach to realize the optomagnomechanical coupling. [ 67 ] The red‐detuned driven optical cavity is used to cool the lower‐frequency mechanical motion, while the activated magnomechanical Stokes scattering (by driving the magnons with a blue‐detuned microwave field) is sufficient to create entanglement. This is a key difference from the entanglement mechanism in ref.…”

Microwave‐optics entanglement is a vital component for building hybrid quantum networks. Here, a new mechanism for preparing stationary entanglement between microwave and optical cavity fields in a cavity optomagnomechanical system is proposed. It consists of a magnon mode in a ferrimagnetic crystal that couples directly to a microwave cavity mode via the magnetic dipole interaction and indirectly to an optical cavity through the deformation displacement of the crystal. The mechanical displacement is induced by the magnetostrictive force and coupled to the optical cavity via radiation pressure. Both the opto‐ and magnomechanical couplings are dispersive. Magnon–phonon entanglement is created via magnomechanical parametric down‐conversion, which is further distributed to optical and microwave photons via simultaneous optomechanical beamsplitter interaction and electromagnonic state‐swap interaction, yielding stationary microwave‐optics entanglement. The microwave‐optics entanglement is robust against thermal noise, which will find broad potential applications in quantum networks and quantum information processing with hybrid quantum systems.

Shen et al [1] Researchers are pursuing a variety of ways to store quantum information, or "qubits," in microscopic, typically superconducting, structures. One common feature of such technologies is that reading or writing information relies on interactions with microwaves rather than on higher-frequency visible or infrared light from lasers.…”

uture quantum communication systems will likely use microwaves to transfer information into and out of storage and processing devices but will use lasers to carry information from point to point within an extended network. Now researchers have demonstrated an improved method for converting microwaves to visible light signals by exploiting the way that electromagnetic waves can set up vibrations within microspheres [1]. Two microspheres in contact-one sensitive to microwaves and the other sensitive to optical signals-serve as the core of the converter. The work should give researchers a wider range of technological options as they develop advanced communications and computing networks.
