Dynamical Casimir Effect and its Acoustic Analog in an optomechanical resonator containing a Quantum Well

2013 
We study in detail the dynamics of a non-stationary system composed of a Quantum Well confined in an optomechanical cavity. This system is investigated with classical and quantized motion of the cavity movable mirror. In both the cases, the cavity frequency is rapidly modulated in time. The resultant periodically modulated spectra is presented. In particular, we study the effect of two-photon process on the number of intracavity photons. The intensity of fluorescent light emitted by excitons in the quantum well is also examined for these non-stationary systems. It is observed that the initial stage of fluorescence spectrum helps in detecting the two-photon process. It is also noticed that under strong modulation, two-photon process dominates while under weak modulation, fluorescence dominates. We also analyzed the dynamics of the system induced by a periodic modulation of the external pump laser with constant cavity frequency. This modulation of external laser pump helps in phonon amplification.
