B.M. Rodr\'iguez-Lara, H.M. Moya-Cessa
TL;DR
This paper investigates how radiation pressure in a cavity with a movable mirror causes optical bistability, revealing complex nonlinear dynamics in optomechanical systems.
Contribution
It introduces a theoretical analysis of optical bistability caused by radiation pressure in a cavity with a moving mirror, highlighting a novel nonlinear effect.
Findings
Optical bistability arises from radiation pressure effects.
The system exhibits hysteresis in its output.
The analysis provides insights into optomechanical nonlinearities.
Abstract
We analyze the behaviour of a coherent field driving a single mode optical cavity with one perfectly reflecting moving mirror and a partially reflecting fixed mirror, and show that this system's output exhibits optical bistability due to radiation pressure acting over the moving mirror.
