A scheme for detecting the atom-field coupling constant in the Dicke superradiation regime using hybrid cavity optomechanical system

Opt Express. 2012 Apr 23;20(9):10106-14. doi: 10.1364/OE.20.010106.

Abstract

We proposed a scheme for detecting the atom-field coupling constant in the Dicke superradiation regime based on a hybrid cavity optomechanical system assisted by an atomic gas. The critical behavior of the Dicke model was obtained analytically using the spin-coherent-state representation. Without regard to the dynamics of cavity field an analytical formula of one-to-one correspondence between movable mirror's steady position and atom-field coupling constant for a given number of atoms is obtained. Thus the atom-field coupling constant can be probed by measuring the movable mirror's steady position, which is another effect of the cavity optomechanics.
