Abstract

In this paper, we investigate theoretically a system consisting of a one dimensional Bose-Einstein condensate trapped inside the optical lattice of an optical cavity. In the weak-interaction regime and under the Bogoliubov approximation, the wave function of the Bose-Einstein condensate can be described by a classical field (condensate mode) having some quantum fluctuations (the Bogoliubov mode) about the mean value. Such a system behaves as a so-called atomic parametric amplifier, similar to an optical parametric amplifier, where the condensate and the Bogoliubov modes play respectively, the roles of the pump field and the signal mode in the degenerate parametric amplifier and the s-wave scattering frequency of atom-atom interaction plays the role of the nonlinear gain parameter. We show that using the nonlinear effect of atomic collisions, how one can manipulate and control the state of the Bogoliubov mode and produce squeezed states.

Nonlinear effects of atomic collisions on the optomechanical properties of a Bose-Einstein condensate in an optical cavity

Ali Dalafi, M. H. Naderi, M. Soltanolkotabi +1 more

In this paper, we have investigated theoretically the influence of atomic collisions on the behavior of a one-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensate inside a driven optical cavity. We develop the discrete-mode approximation for the condensate taking into account the interband transitions due to the $s$-wave scattering interaction. We show that in the Bogoliubov approximation the atom-atom interaction shifts the energies of the excited modes and also plays the role of an optical parametric amplifier for the Bogoliubov side mode which can affect its normal-mode splitting behavior. On the other hand due to the atomic collisions the resonance frequency of the cavity is shifted which leads to the decrease of the number of cavity photons and the depletion of the Bogoliubov mode. Besides, it reduces the effective atom-photon coupling parameter which consequently leads to the decrease of the entanglement between the Bogoliubov mode and the optical field.

Intrinsic cross-Kerr nonlinearity in an optical cavity containing an interacting Bose-Einstein condensate

Ali Dalafi, M. H. Naderi

An interacting cigar-shaped Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) inside a driven optical cavity exhibits an intrinsic cross-Kerr (CK) nonlinearity due to the interaction with the optical mode of the cavity. Although the CK coupling is much weaker than those of the radiation pressure and the atom-atom interactions, it can affect the bistability behavior of the system when the intensity of the laser pump is strong enough. On the other hand, there is a competition between the CK nonlinearity and the atom-atom interaction so that the latter can neutralize the effect of the former. Furthermore, the CK nonlinearity causes the effective frequency of the Bogoliubov mode of the BEC as well as the quantum fluctuations of the system to be increased by increasing the cavity driving rate. However, in the dispersive interaction regime the effect of the CK nonlinearity is negligible. In addition, we show that by increasing the $s$-wave scattering frequency of atomic collisions one can generate a strong stationary quadrature squeezing in the Bogoliubov mode of the BEC.

The effect of atomic collisions on the quantum phase transition of a Bose–Einstein condensate inside an optical cavity

A Dalafi, M. H. Naderi, M Soltanolkotabi

Abstract In this paper, we investigate the effect of atomic collisions on the phase transition form the normal to the superradiant phase in a one-dimensional Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC) trapped inside an optical cavity. Specifically, we show that driving the atoms from the side of the cavity leads to the excitation of modes in the edges of the first Brillouin zone of every energy band, which results in the two-mode approximation of the BEC matter field in the limit of weak coupling regime. The nonlinear effect of atom–atom interaction shifts the threshold of the quantum phase transition of the BEC and also affect the power low behavior of quantum fluctuations in the total particle number. Besides, we show the possibility of controlling the quantum phase transition of the system through the s -wave scattering frequency when the strength of the transverse pumping has been fixed.

Phase noise and squeezing spectra of the output field of an optical cavity containing an interacting Bose–Einstein condensate

Ali Dalafi, M. H. Naderi

Abstract We present a theoretical study of the phase noise, intensity and quadrature squeezing power spectra of the transmitted field of a driven optical cavity containing an interacting one-dimensional Bose–Einstein condensate. We show how the pattern of the output power spectrum of the cavity changes due to the nonlinear effect of atomic collisions. Furthermore, it is shown that due to a one-to-one correspondence between the splitting of the peaks in the phase noise power spectrum of the cavity output field and the s -wave scattering frequency of the atom–atom interaction, one can measure the strength of interatomic interaction. In addition, we show how the atomic collisions affect the squeezing behavior of the output field.
