Collectively-enhanced optomechanical coupling in periodic arrays of
scatterers
   [PDF]

André Xuereb, Claudiu Genes, Aurélien Dantan
In a recent publication [A. Xuereb, C. Genes, and A. Dantan, Phys. Rev. Lett. 109, 223601 (2012)] the optomechanical properties of a periodic array of identical scatterers placed inside an optical cavity were investigated. It was shown that operating at a point where the array is transmissive results in a linear optomechanical coupling strength between the cavity field and a collective motional mode that may be several orders of magnitude stronger than is possible with an equivalent reflective ensemble. In this work we describe and interpret these effects in significantly greater detail, investigate the nature of the scaling laws noted previously, and discuss their robustness to imperfections.
