Abstract

We investigate the cooling phenomenon of a mechanical oscillator in a double-coupled cavity optomechanical system. Our model includes two single-mode optical cavities. The left cavity is an optomechanical system with an optical parametric amplifier, and the right cavity is a standard optical cavity. The two optical cavities couple with each other by exchanging photons. The optomechanical system is effectively driven by an input laser field. By solving the linear quantum Langevin equation of the system under a steady-state condition, we can obtain the position fluctuation spectrum and momentum fluctuation spectrum of the mechanical oscillator, and then, the expression of its effective temperature is obtained. Through numerical analysis, we find the change in the effective temperature of the mechanical oscillator under different physical parameters. The results show that the cooling of the mechanical oscillator can be significantly improved in the presence of optical parameter amplification and adjustment of optical cavity parameters. Our cooling solutions have potential applications for the preparation of nonclassical states of mechanical oscillators, high-precision measurements, and quantum information processing.
