State Preparation: Non-Gaussian Quantum State,his is rather challenging to achieve, especially when the mass of the mechanical oscillator is large and the frequency is low. In this chapter, we propose a protocol for coherently transferring non-Gaussian quantum states from the optical field to a mechanical oscillator, which does not require a nonlinear coupling in the optomechanical system.

Nonlinear Optomechanical System for Probing Mechanical Energy Quantization, experimental work of Thompson et?al. (Nature 452:72–75, 2008), we consider the quantum limit for probing mechanical energy quantization with mechanical modes parametrically coupled to external degrees of freedom.

Probing Macroscopic Quantum States,te can be characterized below the Heisenberg limit, thereby achieving a quantum tomography. In the limiting case of no readout loss, such a scheme evades measurement-induced back-action, which is identical to the variational-type measurement scheme invented by Vyatchanin et?al., but in the context for detecting gravitational waves (GWs).
