摘要：
We investigate the single-photon transport in a single-mode optical fiber coupled to an optomechanical system in the single-photon strong-coupling regime. The single-photon transmission amplitude is analytically obtained with a real-space approach and the effects of cavity and mechanical dissipations are studied via master-equation simulations. Based on the theoretical framework, we further propose a heralded probabilistic scheme to generate mechanical NOON states with arbitrary phonon numbers by measuring the sideband photons. The efficiency and fidelity of the scheme are discussed finally. DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevA.87.033807
