For the condition given by ∆Ω > 1, the system is dynamically unstable,
and the Hamiltonian can be expressed in the normal form,
iℏr † 2
Ĥ = ℏω1 ĉ†1 ĉ1 + [(ĉ2 ) − ĉ22 ] (3)
| 2 {z }
squeezing term
where ĉ1 and ĉ2 are bosonic annihilation operators of the normal modes.
ω12 ≡ (ζ 2 + ∆2 + Ω2 )/2, r2 ≡ (ζ 2 − ∆2 − Ω2 )/2, and
ζ 4 ≡ (∆2 − Ω2 )2 + 16∆Ωg 2
The second term describes a squeezing hamiltonian for cˆ2 with a squeezing
rate r.
Theoretical framework
In the far red detuned regime, ∆ ≫ Ω, the squeezed mode ĉ2 is dominated
by the mechanical mode,
