We study a hybrid semiconductor-optomechanical system, which consists of a cavity with an oscillating mirror made by semiconducting materials or with a semiconducting membrane inside. The cavity photons and the excitons in the oscillating…
Permeable mirrors are typically used for coupling photons out of laser cavities. A similar approach was proposed for output coupling photons from the cavities of x-ray free-electron laser (XFEL) oscillators. One of the Bragg-reflecting…
We consider the dynamics of a vibrating and rotating end-mirror of an optical Fabry-P{\'erot} cavity that can sustain Laguerre-Gaussian modes. We demonstrate theoretically that since the intra-cavity field carries linear as well as angular…
Three-mode parametric interactions occur in triply-resonant optomechanical systems: photons from an optical pump mode are coherently scattered to a high-order mode by mechanical motion of the cavity mirrors, and these modes resonantly…
We theoretically analyze the light scattering of an optomechanical cavity which strongly interacts with a single two-level system and couples simultaneously to a mechanical oscillator by radiation forces. The analysis is based on the…
We show that the stable optical rigidity can be obtained in a Fabry-Perot cavity with dissipative optomechanical coupling and with detuned pump, corresponding conditions are formulated. An optical detection of a weak classical mechanical…
We characterize the local properties of an optomechanical system comprising the movable mirror of a resonator and its intracavity field, mutually coupled via radiation-pressure. Our approach shows that both the state of the mirror and the…
An optical cavity consisting of optically trapped mirrors makes a resonant bar that can be stiffer than diamond. A limitation of the stiffness arises in the length of the optical bar as a consequence of the finite light speed. High laser…
We report on the realization of an optical microcavity consisting in the plane-plane arrangement of two suspended resonant mirrors possessing spectrally overlapping high-quality factor internal resonances. We first investigate its generic…
We present an experimental study of dynamical back-action cooling of the fundamental vibrational mode of a thin semitransparent membrane placed within a high-finesse optical cavity. We study how the radiation pressure interaction modifies…
In the article we explain in detail how to build a photorefractive oscillator (PRO), which is a laser-pumped nonlinear optical cavity containing a photorefractive crystal. The specific PRO whose construction we describe systematically, is…
The ray dynamics of optical cavities exhibits bifurcation points: special geometries at which ray trajectories switch abruptly between stable and unstable. A prominent example is the Fabry-Perot cavity with two planar mirrors, which is…
The investigation of the ultimate limits imposed by quantum mechanics on amplification represents an important topic both on a fundamental level and from the perspective of potential applications. We propose here a novel setup for an…
We study the coherent dynamics of an excited two-level atom in a vacuum optomechanical cavity and find that the original atom-cavity Rabi oscillation is sinusoidally modulated by the light-mechanics coupling as the Rabi splitting is on…
Optomechanical cavities have proven to be an exceptional tool to explore fundamental and technological aspects of the interaction between mechanical and optical waves. Such interactions strongly benefit from cavities with large…
We consider the paraxial model for a nonlinear resonator with a saturable absorber beyond the mean-field limit and develop a method to study the modulational instabilities leading to pattern formation in all three spatial dimensions. For…
We demonstrate lasing into counter-propagating modes of a ring cavity using a gas of cold atoms as a gain medium. The laser operates under the usual conditions of magneto-optical trapping with no additional fields. We characterize the…
The interaction between dielectric particles and a laser-driven optical cavity gives rise to both conservative and dissipative dynamics, which can be used to levitate, trap and cool nanoparticles. We analytically and numerically study a…
We report the first observation of three-mode opto-acoustic parametric interactions of the type predicted to cause parametric instabilities in an 80 m long, high optical power cavity that uses suspended sapphire mirrors. Resonant…
The dynamics of two active nonlinear resonators coupled to a linear resonator is studied theoretically. Possible stationary states and its dynamical stability are considered in detail. The spontaneous symmetry breaking is found and it is…
