Abstract

We explain dynamical localization of Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC) in optomechanics both in position and in momentum space. The experimentally realizable optomechanical system is a Fabry–Pérot cavity with one moving end mirror driven by a single mode standing field. In our study we analyze variations in modulation strength and effective Planck's constant. Keeping in mind present day experimental advancements, we suggest parameteric values to observe the phenomenon in the laboratory.

Exponential localization of moving end mirror in optomechanics

Kashif Ammar Yasir, Muhammad Ayub, Farhan Saif

We discuss the dynamics of moving end mirror of an optomechanical system that consists of a Fabry-Perot cavity loaded with dilute condensate and driven by a single-mode optical field. It is shown that quantum mechanical phenomenon of dynamical localization occurs both in position and momentum space for moving end mirror in the system. The parametric dependencies of dynamical localization are discussed. We also provide a set of parameters which makes this phenomenon experimentally feasible.

Tunable Bistability in Hybrid Bose-Einstein Condensate Optomechanics

Kashif Ammar Yasir, Wu-Ming Liu

Cavity-optomechanics, a rapidly developing area of research, has made a remarkable progress. A stunning manifestation of optomechanical phenomena is in exploiting the mechanical effects of light to couple the optical degree of freedom with mechanical degree of freedom. In this report, we investigate the controlled bistable dynamics of such hybrid optomechanical system composed of cigar-shaped Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) trapped inside high-finesse optical cavity with one moving-end mirror and is driven by a single mode optical field. The numerical results provide evidence for controlled optical bistability in optomechanics using transverse optical field which directly interacts with atoms causing the coupling of transverse field with momentum side modes, exited by intra-cavity field. This technique of transverse field coupling is also used to control bistable dynamics of both moving-end mirror and BEC. The report provides an understanding of temporal dynamics of moving-end mirror and BEC with respect to transverse field. Moreover, dependence of effective potential of the system on transverse field has also been discussed. To observe this phenomena in laboratory, we have suggested a certain set of experimental parameters. These findings provide a platform to investigate the tunable behavior of novel phenomenon like electromagnetically induced transparency and entanglement in hybrid systems.

Cavity optomechanics with a Bose–Einstein condensate: normal mode splitting

Muhammad Asjad

We study the normal mode splitting in a system consisting of a Bose–Einstein condensates (BECs) trapped inside a Fabry–Pérot cavity driven by a single mode laser field. We analyze the variations in frequency and damping rate of the collective density excitation of a BEC imparted by the optical field. We study the occurrence of normal mode splitting which appears as consequences of the hybridization of the fluctuations of the intracavity field and the condensate mode. It is shown that normal mode splitting vanishes for weak coupling between the condensate mode and the intracavity field. Moreover, we investigate the normal mode splitting in the transmission spectrum of the cavity field.

Classical dynamics of the optomechanical modes of a Bose-Einstein condensate in a ring cavity

W. Chen, D. S. Goldbaum, Mishkatul Bhattacharya +1 more

We consider a cavity optomechanical system consisting of a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) interacting with two counterpropagating traveling-wave modes in an optical ring cavity. In contrast to the more familiar case where the condensate is driven by the standing-wave field of a high-$Q$ Fabry-P\'erot cavity we find that both symmetric and antisymmetric collective density side modes of the BEC are mechanically excited by the light field. In the semiclassical, mean-field limit where the light field and the zero-momentum mode of the condensate are treated classically the system is found to exhibit a rich multistable behavior, including the appearance of isolated branches of solutions (isolas). We also present examples of the dynamics of the system as input parameters such as the frequency of the driving lasers are varied.

Optomechanics of ultracold atomic gases

Rina Kanamoto, Pierre Meystre

We give a brief overview of the basic aspects of the optomechanical interaction between a light field and a mechanical mode of ultracold bosonic and fermionic atomic gases inside a Fabry–Pérot cavity, showing that these systems provide a ‘bottom up’ approach to cavity optomechanics. In contrast to the case of a Bose condensate, where the effective ‘moving mirror’ is a side mode whose occupation results simply from photon recoil, for fermionic atoms this ‘mirror’ is a collective density oscillation associated with particle–hole excitations. We also discuss the experimental consequences of the optomechanical coupling in optical bistability.

Hamiltonian chaos in a coupled BEC–optomechanical-cavity system

K. Zhang, W. Chen, Mishkatul Bhattacharya +1 more

We present a theoretical study of a hybrid optomechanical system consisting of a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) trapped inside a single-mode optical cavity with a moving end mirror. The intracavity light field has a dual role: it excites a momentum side mode of the condensate, and acts as a nonlinear spring that couples the vibrating mirror to that collective density excitation. We present the dynamics in a regime where the intracavity optical field, the mirror, and the side-mode excitation all display bistable behavior. In this regime we find that the dynamics of the system exhibits Hamiltonian chaos for appropriate initial conditions.
