Abstract

We theoretically investigate the dispersive interaction of a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) trapped inside an optomechanical cavity with a moving end mirror in the presence of the laser phase noise (LPN) as well as the atomic collisions. We assume that the effective frequency of the optical mode is much greater than those of the mechanical and the Bogoliubov modes of the movable mirror and the BEC. In the adiabatic approximation where the damping rate of the cavity is faster than those of the other modes, the system behaves as an effective two-mode model in which the atomic and mechanical modes are coupled to each other through the mediation of the optical field by an effective coupling parameter. We show that in the effective two-mode model, the LPN appears as a classical stochastic pump term which drives the amplitude quadratures of the mechanical and the Bogoliubov modes. It is also shown that a strong stationary mirror-atom entanglement can be established just in the dispersive and Doppler regimes where the two modes come into resonance with each other and the effect of the LPN gets very small.

Research Paper: Entanglement and Quantum Cooling of a Hybrid System Composed of BEC and Optical Cavity

Mohammad Eghbali‐Arani, Masume Najafimanesh, Alidad Asgkari

‎We present a theoretical interacting one-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) inside an optical cavity which is driven through of the fixed end mirrors. Under the Bogoliubov approximation and when the number of photons inside the cavity is not too large, the atomic field operator can be considered as a single-mode quantum field which is coupled to the radiation pressure of the intracavity field. In this way, the system behaves like an optomechanical system with an extra nonlinear term corresponding to the atom-atom interaction.We show that one of the best ways of tracing the effect of atomic interaction is to study the noise power spectrum of the field of the cavity. For this purpose, we study the light intensity spectrum of the cavity as well as the entanglement between the optical cavity and the BEC. We show how the pattern of the power spectrum of the cavity changes due to the nonlinear effect of atomic collisions. Furthermore, it is shown that due to the s-wave scattering frequency of the atom-atom interaction, one can measure the strength of interatomic interaction. Besides, we show how the atomic collisions affect the entanglement between subsystems and cooling behavior of the BEC atoms.

Controllability of optical bistability, cooling and entanglement in hybrid cavity optomechanical systems by nonlinear atom-atom interaction

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

We investigate the effects of atomic collisions as well as optomechanical mirror–field coupling on the optical bistability in a hybrid system consisting of a Bose–Einstein condensate inside a driven optical cavity with a moving end mirror. It is shown that the bistability of the system can be controlled by the s-wave scattering frequency which can provide the possibility of realizing a controllable optical switch. On the other hand, by studying the effect of the Bogoliubov mode, as a secondary mechanical mode relative to the mirror vibrations, on the cooling process as well as the bipartite mirror–field and atom–field entanglements we find an interpretation for the cooling of the Bogoliubov mode. The advantage of this hybrid system in comparison to the bare optomecanical cavity with a two-mode moving mirror is the controllability of the frequency of the secondary mode through the s-wave scattering interaction.

Opto-mechanical effects in superradiant light scattering by Bose-Einstein condensate in a cavity

Aranya B. Bhattacherjee

We investigate the effects of a movable mirror (cantilever) of an optical cavity on the superradiant light scattering from a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) in an optical lattice. We show that the mirror motion has a dynamic dispersive effect on the cavity-pump detuning. Varying the intensity of the pump beam, one can switch between the pure superradiant regime and the Bragg scattering regime. The mechanical frequency of the mirror strongly influences the time interval between two Bragg peaks. We found that when the system is in the resolved side band regime for mirror cooling, the superradiant scattering is enhanced due to coherent energy transfer from the mechanical mirror mode to the cavity field mode.

Effects of quadratic coupling and squeezed vacuum injection in an optomechanical cavity assisted with a Bose-Einstein condensate

Ali Dalafi, M. H. Naderi, Ali Motazedifard

We investigate theoretically a hybrid system consisting of a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) trapped inside a laser-driven membrane-in-the-middle optomechanical cavity assisted with squeezed vacuum injection whose moving membrane interacts both linearly and quadratically with the radiation pressure of the cavity. It is shown that such a hybrid system is very suitable for generating strong quadrature squeezing in the mechanical mode of the membrane and the Bogoliubov mode of the BEC in the unresolved sideband regime. More interestingly, by choosing a suitable sign for the quadratic optomechanical coupling (QOC), one can achieve a very high degree of squeezing in the mechanical mode and a strong entanglement between the mechanical and atomic modes without the necessity of using squeezed light injection. Furthermore, the QOC changes the effective oscillation frequencies of both the mechanical and the atomic modes and affects their relaxation times. It can also make the system switch from optical bistability to tristability.
