• Abstract: We explore how to measure the gravitational acceleration by using a dissipative optomechanical cavity. What is quite different from the conventional measurement methods is that we have constructed a nonreciprocal optomechanical coupling. We demonstrate that nonreciprocal coupling has a much greater advantage than reciprocal coupling. When the coherent optomechanical coupling is relatively weak and the driving intensity of single photon is strong, nonreciprocal coupling can improve the measurement precision by a factor of two. When the driving strength of single photon tends to infinity, reciprocal coupling fails to obtain any information about the gravitational acceleration, while nonreciprocal coupling still does. Using a two-photon driving, the measurement uncertainty of the gravitational acceleration will tend to zero as the intensity of two-photon driving approaches the critical point. The critical value of the two-photon driving intensity required for nonreciprocal coupling is finite, but the critical value of the two-photon driving intensity required for reciprocal coupling is infinite. The combination of the amplification of mechanical parameters and the extra force can not improve the measurement precision, but it can enhance the susceptibility. Furthermore, when the single-photon driving field is relatively weak, we analytically calculate the quantum Fisher information. The results show that, under most experimental parameters, nonreciprocal coupling still performs better than reciprocal coupling.

  We investigate the advantages of nonreciprocal coupling in sensing a driving signal. A single non-reciprocal coupling can increase measurement precision up to 2 times. In a non-zero temperature dissipative environment, we demonstrate that the nonreciprocal quantum sensing has better robustness to thermal noise than the reciprocal quantum sensing.
