We study theoretically and experimentally the behavior of an optomechanical system where two vibrating dielectric membranes are placed inside a driven Fabry-Pérot cavity. We prove that multi–element systems of mechanical resonators are suitable for enhancing optomechanical performances, and we report a ∼2.47 gain in the optomechanical coupling strength of the membrane relative motion with respect to the single membrane case. With this configuration it is possible to enable cavity optomechanics in the strong single-photon coupling regime.

Abstract

We study theoretically and experimentally the behavior of an optomechanical system where two vibrating dielectric membranes are placed inside a driven Fabry-Pérot cavity. We prove that multi–element systems of mechanical resonators are suitable for enhancing optomechanical performances, and we report a ∼2.47 gain in the optomechanical coupling strength of the membrane relative motion with respect to the single membrane case. With this configuration it is possible to enable cavity optomechanics in the strong single-photon coupling regime.
