Abstract
In the framework of the nonsecular perturbation theory based on the Bogoliubov averaging method, an optomechanical system with an asymmetric anharmonic mechanical resonator is studied. The cross-Kerr interaction and the Kerr-like self-interaction of photons and vibration quanta arise in the Hamiltonian. These interactions are induced by both cubic and quartic nonlinearities of oscillations of the mechanical resonator and the cavity-resonator interaction that is linear in mechanical displacements. We demonstrate a bistable behavior of the number of vibration quanta and find that this behavior is controlled by the cross-Kerr interaction. It is shown that, without driving and dissipation, the constructed superposition Yurke-Stoler-like states of the cavity (or the mechanical resonator) disentangle at certain times the entangled modes of the system. The obtained results offer new possibilities for control of optomechanical systems with asymmetric mechanical oscillations.
