  bibo_abstract:
  - Practical quantum networks require low-loss and noise-resilient optical interconnects
    as well as non-Gaussian resources for entanglement distillation and distributed
    quantum computation. The latter could be provided by superconducting circuits
    but existing solutions to interface the microwave and optical domains lack either
    scalability or efficiency, and in most cases the conversion noise is not known.
    In this work we utilize the unique opportunities of silicon photonics, cavity
    optomechanics and superconducting circuits to demonstrate a fully integrated,
    coherent transducer interfacing the microwave X and the telecom S bands with a
    total (internal) bidirectional transduction efficiency of 1.2% (135%) at millikelvin
    temperatures. The coupling relies solely on the radiation pressure interaction
    mediated by the femtometer-scale motion of two silicon nanobeams reaching a <jats:italic>V</jats:italic><jats:sub><jats:italic>π</jats:italic></jats:sub>
    as low as 16 μV for sub-nanowatt pump powers. Without the associated optomechanical
    gain, we achieve a total (internal) pure conversion efficiency of up to 0.019%
    (1.6%), relevant for future noise-free operation on this qubit-compatible platform.@eng
