Micromechanical oscillator ground-state cooling via resonant intracavity optical gain or absorption

Micromechanical oscillator ground-state cooling via resonant intracavity optical gain or absorption

We suggest possibilities for manipulation and ground-state cooling of micromechanical oscillators by resonant coupling of the mirror vibrations to narrow optical transitions of a designed material ensemble within a cavity mode. Particles, modeled as a two-level ensemble, create intracavity narrow bandwidth loss or gain and induce tailored asymmetric structuring of …
