Bistable optical response of a three-cavity hybrid optomechanical system: effect of Kerr nonlinearity

Hamidreza Foroughi, Nader Daneshfar

In this study, we theoretically investigate the optical bistability (OB) in hybrid triple-cavity optomechanical systems (OMSs) composed of three coupled cavities (two optical cavities and one optomechanical cavity) in the presence of semiconductor quantum dot molecules and a Kerr medium with a Kerr coefficient of χ when the optomechanical cavity is driven by a pump laser with frequency ωp and the amplitude Ep, which results in optical pressure on the movable mirror of the OMS. The dynamical equations of motion for this triple-cavity hybrid system in the steady state limit are solved using the Heisenberg-Langevin equations to achieve OB. We have demonstrated that it is possible to adjust both the width of the hysteresis loop and the switching threshold by controlling the Kerr coefficient . t is found that by properly tuning the physical parameters, the bistable thresholds of the system can be switched on and switched off, which is useful for designing and optimizing sensitive all-optical switching .

Controllable optical bistability and Fano line shape in a hybrid optomechanical system assisted by kerr medium: possibility of all optical switching

Aranya B. Bhattacherjee, Muhammad Sami Hasan

We theoretically analyse the optical and optomechanical nonlinearity present in a hybrid system consisting of a quantum dot(QD) coupled to an optomechanical cavity in the presence of a nonlinear Kerr medium, and show that this hybrid system can be used as an all optical switch. A high degree of control and tunability via the QD-cavity coupling strength, the Kerr and the optomechanical nonlinearity over the bistable behaviour shown by the mean intracavity optical field and the power transmission of the weak probe field can be achieved.The results obtained in this investigation has the potential to be used for designing efficient all-optical switch and high sensitive sensors for use in Telecom systems.

Comparison of optical bistability in two different hybrid optomechanical systems: Impact of quantum dot molecules

Daneshfar, Nader, Foroughi, Hamidreza

In this paper, optical bistability in hybrid optomechanical systems consisting of two cavities (optomechanical and conventional) coupled to each other, which contain quantum dot molecules (QDMs), is investigated and compared. For this purpose, two different configurations are studied: in the first configuration, the quantum dot molecules (QDMs) are inside the optomechanical cavity, and in the second configuration, the quantum dot molecules are inside the conventional cavity. To calculate the dynamics of the system operators, the Heisenberg-Langevin approach is used under the mean field approximation. To achieve the phenomenon of optical bistability, which is used in optical switches and optical memories, the dynamic equations of the system are solved in a steady state. The effect of the system's physical parameters, including the detuning, the number of quantum dot molecules, and the tunneling intensity of the external field, on the phenomenon of optical bistability is studied. In addition, the switching threshold and the width of the optical bistability region in two different configurations are compared. Considering that the phenomenon of optical bistability can have potential applications in all-optical switches, optical transistors, quantum computing, and quantum communication, the obtained results can be useful for the mentioned applications and system optimization.
