  1. Theory of Opto-Mechanical Systems S. M. Girvin Yale University NSF DMR-0342157 In collaboration with Florian Marquardt and experimental colleague Jack Harris, we have studied the non-linear classical dynamics of a micro-mechanical cantilever driven by the radiation pressure in a high finesse optical cavity. Motion of the cantilever changes the resonance frequency of the cavity and hence the radiation pressure. This feedback effect leads to large number of ‘islands’ of stable oscillation of different amplitudes (in green in middle figure) and a non-trivial ‘optical spring’ effective potential energy for the cantilever (blue inset in lower figure). http://www.arxiv.org/abs/condmat/0502561
