Suppression of Rabi oscillations in hybrid optomechanical systems
Timo Holz, Ralf Betzholz, and Marc Bienert
TL;DR
This paper investigates how the interplay of radiation pressure and dipole interactions in a hybrid optomechanical system can suppress Rabi oscillations, revealing a blockade effect analogous to photon blockade.
Contribution
It introduces the concept of Rabi oscillation suppression in a hybrid optomechanical system due to strong coupling effects, highlighting a novel blockade phenomenon.
Findings
Suppression of Rabi oscillations observed in the system.
The effect occurs in the single photon strong coupling regime.
Analogy established with photon blockade in optomechanics.
Abstract
In a hybrid optomechanical setup consisting of a two-level atom in a cavity with a pendular end-mirror, the interplay between the light field's radiation pressure on the mirror and the dipole interaction with the atom can lead to a blockade effect, which manifests itself in a suppression of Rabi oscillations in the atomic population. This effect is present when the system is in the single photon strong coupling regime and has an analogy in the photon blockade of optomechanics.
