• Abstract: We investigate weak force-sensing based on coherent quantum noise cancellation in a nonlinear hybrid optomechanical system. The optomechanical cavity contains a moveable mechanical mirror, a fixed semitransparent mirror, an ensemble of ultracold atoms, and an optical parametric amplifier (OPA). Using the coherent quantum noise cancellation (CQNC) process, one can eliminate the back action noise at all frequencies. Also by tuning the OPA parameters, one can suppress the quantum shot-noise at lower frequencies than the resonant frequency. In the CQNC scheme, the damping rate of the mechanical oscillator matches the damping rate of the atomic ensemble, which is experimentally achievable even for a low-frequency mechanical oscillator with a high-quality factor. Elimination of the back action noise and suppression of the shot noise significantly enhance force sensing and thus overcome the standard quantum limit of weak force sensing. This hybrid scheme can play an essential role in the realization of quantum optomechanical sensors and quantum control.

  We propose an experimentally viable scheme to enhance the sensitivity of force detection in a hybrid optomechanical setup assisted by squeezed vacuum injection. We show here that the adoption of variational homodyne readout enables us to enhance this noise cancellation up to $40 mathrmdB$ compared to the standard case. We show that at nonzero cavity detuning, the signal response can be amplified at a level three to five times larger than that in the standard case.
