Optical Trapping in a Dark Focus

Bruno Melo, Igor Brandão, B. Pinheiro da Silva +3

The superposition of a Gaussian mode and a Laguerre-Gauss mode with generates the so-called bottle beam: a dark focus surrounded by a bright region. In this paper,…

Entanglement Dynamics in Dispersive Optomechanics: Non-Classicality and Revival

Igor Brandão, Bruno Suassuna, Bruno Melo +1

We study entanglement dynamics in dispersive optomechanical systems consisting of two optical modes and a mechanical oscillator inside an optical cavity. The two optical modes inte…
