• Abstract: We theoretically investigate the control of the Goos-Hänchen shift (GHS) of a reflected weak probe field in both parity-time ($\mathcal{PT}$)-symmetric and conventional optomechanical systems. The proposed scheme consists of a single optomechanical platform where a passive optical cavity is coupled to an active mechanical resonator, in contrast to standard passive-passive configurations. Analysis of the eigenfrequency spectrum reveals the emergence of an exceptional point under balanced gain-loss conditions at a tunable effective optomechanical coupling strength. Using the transfer-matrix method combined with stationary-phase analysis, we examine the GHS across broken and unbroken $\mathcal{PT}$ phases and compare it with that in the conventional system. The lateral shift exhibits strong phase dependence: it is markedly enhanced in the unbroken regime relative to both the broken phase and the passive configuration. We further show that the GHS can be actively tuned through the cavity detuning and the intracavity medium length. These results provide a controlled means for manipulating beam shifts in optomechanical systems and suggest pathways toward tunable photonic components and precision optical sensing.

  We investigate the ground state properties of an optomechanical system consisting of a coupled cavity and mechanical modes. By coupling atoms to the cavity mode, the hybrid system can undergo a quantum phase transition (QPT) at a hybrid critical point. These results suggest that this optomechanical system complements other phase transition models for exploring novel critical phenomena.

  We propose two schemes for generating Wigner-negative entangled states unconditionally in mechanical resonators. We show analytically that both schemes stabilize a Wigner-negative entangled state that combines the entanglement of a two-mode squeezed vacuum with a cubic nonlinearity. We then perform extensive numerical simulations to test the robustness of Wigner-negative entanglement attained by approximate CPE states stabilized in the presence of thermal decoherence.

  We show that the simplest set-up of two qubits, harmonically trapped over an optical waveguide, enables the ultrastrong coupling regime of the quantum optomechanical interaction. The combination of the inherent open nature of the system and the strong optomechanical coupling leads to emerging parity-time (PT) symmetry. The $mathcalPT$ phase transition drives long-living subradiant states, observable in the state-of-the-art waveguide QED setups.
