• Abstract: Dynamical backaction cooling has been demonstrated to be a successful method for achieving the motional quantum ground state of a mechanical oscillator in the resolved sideband regime, where the mechanical frequency is significantly larger than the cavity decay rate. Nevertheless, as mechanical systems increase in size, their frequencies naturally decrease, thus bringing them into the unresolved sideband regime, where the effectiveness of the sideband cooling approach decreases. Here, we will demonstrate, however, that this cooling technique in the unresolved sideband regime can be significantly enhanced by utilizing a nonlinear cavity as shown in the experimental work of Zoepfl et. al. (PRL, 2023). The above arises due to the increased asymmetry between the cooling and heating processes, thereby improving the cooling efficiency.

  We propose a novel and experimentally feasible approach to achieve high-efficiency ground-state cooling of a mechanical oscillator in an optomechanical system. The quantum interference effect generated by intracavity squeezing and extracavity squeezing can completely suppress the non-resonant Stokes heating process. Compared with other traditional optomechanical cooling schemes, the single-photon cooling rate in this joint-squeezing scheme can be tremendously enlarged by nearly three orders of magnitude.

We show how to employ one laser drive to cool the entire system including the case when it is composed of other subsystems.

  A pure state can be prepared if external noise induces suitable downwards transitions, while exciting transitions are blocked. We demonstrate such a refrigeration mechanism in a cavity optomechanical system. In the opposite regime where the noise bandwidth becomes comparable to the mechanical damping rate, damping follows the noise amplitude adiabatically, and the cooling is also suppressed.
