Dissipative coupling, dispersive coupling and its combination in simplest opto-mechanical systems (2005.06003v1)

Abstract: We apply strategy of variational measurement to simplest variant of dissipative coupling (test mass displacement change transitivity of a single mirror) and compare it with simplest dispersive coupling (a single mirror as a test mass, which position changes the phase of reflected wave). We compare a ponderomotive squeezing in this two kinds of coupling. Also we analyze simplest variant of combined coupling, in which both dissipative and dispersive couplings are used, and show that it creates stable optical rigidity even in case of single pump. We demonstrate that variational measurement can be applied for combined coupling.
