Quantum -synchronization in coupled optomechanical system with periodic modulation
Abstract
Based on the concepts of quantum synchronization and quantum phase synchronization proposed by A. Mari et al. in Phys. Rev. Lett. 111, 103605 (2013), we introduce and characterize the measure of a more generalized quantum synchronization called quantum -synchronization under which the pairs of variables have the same amplitude and possess the same phase shift. Naturally, quantum synchronization and quantum anti-synchronization become special cases of quantum -synchronization. Their relations and differences are also discussed. To illustrate these theories, we investigate the quantum -synchronization and quantum phase synchronization phenomena of two coupled optomechanical systems with periodic modulation and show that quantum -synchronization is more general as a measure of synchronization. We also show the phenomenon of quantum anti-synchronization when =π.
