Abstract: We present a nonrelativistic Hamiltonian of the interaction between a moving mirror and radiation pressure. This Hamiltonian is derived directly from the equation of motion of a moving mirror, and the wave equation with time-varying boundary conditions. We discuss the canonical quantization of both the field and the motion of the mirror.

An introduction to quantum optomechanics
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide an introduction to the description of mechanical systems in the quantum regime, and provide a review of the various types of micro-scale and nano-scale optomechanical and electromechanical systems.
Optomechanical to mechanical entanglement transformation
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a scheme for generating entanglement between two mechanical oscillators that have never interacted with each other by using an entanglerswapping protocol, which consists of a Michelson-Morley interferometer comprising mechanical systems embodied by two cantilevers.
Vacuum energy densities of a field in a cavity with a mobile boundary
Federico Armata,Roberto Passante +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors considered the zero-point field fluctuations, and the related field energy densities, inside a one-dimensional and a three-dimensional cavity with a mobile wall, and showed that the quantum fluctuations of the position of the cavity's mobile wall significantly affect the field energy density inside the cavity, in particular at the very proximity of the mobile wall.
Optical polarizer based on the mechanical effect of light.
TL;DR: The polarizer proposed here can be adjusted rapidly by tuning polarization and intensity of the control field and may enable on-chip optical control of polarization management with remarkable applications, due to the improvement of nanofabrication techniques.
Parametric down-conversion and polariton pair generation in optomechanical systems
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the nonlinear optomechanical interaction leads to parametric down-conversion, capable of generating polariton pairs formed by photons and phonons, and provides analytical results for the frequency matching condition and derive the non linear coefficient.

Quantum-Mechanical Radiation-Pressure Fluctuations in an Interferometer
TL;DR: In this article, the interferometers now being developed to detect gravitational vaves work by measuring small changes in the positions of free masses, and there has been a controversy whether quantum-mechanical radiation-pressure fluctuations disturb this measurement.

Quantum-noise reduction using a cavity with a movable mirror
TL;DR: The quantum fluctuations of the field reflected by such a cavity, taking into account the input field fluctuations and the mirror Brownian motion, are determined and a significant quantum-noise reduction effect is obtained in the regions of parameter space close to bistability turning points.

Quantum noise reduction by radiation pressure.
TL;DR: It is shown that a linear Fabry-P\'erot cavity with an oscillating end mirror can be used for quantum noise reduction and the output quantum fluctuations of the monochromatic light beam can be significantly squeezed at a frequency very close to that of the impinging light.
