Abstract

We propose an effective approach for generating significant amount of entanglement and asymmetric steering between photon and phonon in a cavity magnomechanical system which consists of a microwave cavity and a yttrium iron garnet sphere. By driving the magnon mode of the yttrium iron garnet sphere with blue-detuned microwave field, the magnon mode can be acted as an engineered resevoir cools the Bogoliubov modes of microwave cavity mode and mechanical mode via beam-splitter-like interaction. In this way, the microwave cavity mode and mechanical mode are driven to two-mode squeezed states in the stationary limit. In particular, strong two-way and one-way asymmetric quantum steering between the photon and phonon modes can be obtained with even equal dissipation. It is very different from the conventional proposal of asymmetric quantum steering, where additional unbalanced losses or noises on the two subsystems has been imposed. Our finding may be significant to expand our understanding of the essential physics of asymmetric steering and extend the potential application of the cavity spintronics to device-independent quantum key distribution.
