Abstract
Quantum control technology provides an increasingly useful toolbox for quantum information tasks. In this Letter, by introducing a pulsed coupling to a standard optomechanical system, we show that stronger squeezing can be obtained with pulse modulation due to the reduction of the heating coefficient. Also, the general squeezed states, such as the squeezed vacuum, squeezed coherent, and squeezed cat states, can be obtained with their squeezing level exceeding 3 dB. Moreover, our scheme is robust to cavity decay, thermal temperature, and classical noise, which is friendly to experiments. The present work can extend the application of quantum engineering technology in optomechanical systems.
