Compared with unconventional photon blockade, the conventional counterpart provides higher single-photon generation efficiency but typically demands strong nonlinearity, which severely restricts experimental feasibility. Here, a nonlinear enhancement scheme based on a hybrid optomagnonic system is proposed. The central idea is to exploit an additional tripartite interaction among the TE mode, TM mode, and magnon that, under strong driving, induces two-mode squeezing. Via a squeezing transformation, the effective magnon–photon coupling is exponentially enhanced, giving rise to a strong effective Kerr nonlinearity and thus an increased energy-level detuning. Using both analytical calculations and numerical simulations of the second-order correlation function, it is shown that the conventional photon blockade is substantially enhanced. Compared with the pure optomagnonic scheme induced by the Faraday effect, the proposed approach reduces the second-order correlation function by more than an order of magnitude and dramatically broadens the blockade parameter window. Moreover, photon blockade is achieved even when the intrinsic coupling strength is much smaller than the cavity decay rate. These results suggest a feasible route toward high-efficiency conventional photon blockade without strong intrinsic nonlinearities, potentially facilitating on-chip single-photon sources for scalable quantum information processing.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":72073,"journal":{"name":"Advanced quantum technologies","volume":"9 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2026-08-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148753771","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We demonstrate that the STA protocol can remarkably enhance the charging efficiency. During the charging cycle, STA drives the periodic evolution of stored energy, coherence relative entropy, and energy fluctuations, and effectively suppresses energy fluctuation magnitude. We reveal that quantum coherence serves as a crucial quantum resource for boosting the charging efficiency of a QB. We analyze the influences of the anisotropy parameter, driving field amplitude and frequency, as well as particle number on the overall battery performance and show that efficient charging and prominent charging advantages can be realized by modulating these physical parameters.

Existing Gaussian state engineering methods mainly target continuous-variable non-classical states, whereas the systematic generation of heralded multipartite entangled states remains largely unexplored. In this work, a Gaussian state engineering framework enhanced by photon addition and subtraction for heralded generation of entangled states is developed. By combining single-mode squeezing, linear interferometers, and conditional photon-number measurements on ancillary modes, the model probabilistically generates dual-rail encoded Bell, GHZ, and W states. Squeezing parameters and interferometer settings are systematically optimized to maximize both heralding success probability and fidelity with target states. Results demonstrate that photon addition and subtraction significantly enhance output state non-classicality and improve generation performance while maintaining computational efficiency comparable to single-photon source models.
