Abstract
We describe a cavity QED analogue for the coupling system of a spin and a nanomechanical resonator with a magnetic tip. For the quantized nanomechanical resonator, a spin-boson model for this coupling system can refer to a Jaynes-Cummings(JC) or an anti-JC model. These observations predict some quantum optical phenomena, such as squeezing and "collapse-revival" in the single oscillation mode of the nanomechanical resonator when it is initially prepared in the quasi-classical state. By modulating the phase of RF magnetic field one can switch the system between the JC and anti-JC model, which provides a potential protocol for the detection of the single spin. A damping mechanism is also analyzed.
