RESUMO
In this work, we theoretically study a finite and undamped two-mode optomechanical model consisting of a high quality optical cavity containing a thin, elastic, and dielectric membrane. The main objective is to investigate the precursors of quantum phase transition in such a model by studying the behavior of some observables in the ground state. By controlling the coupling between membrane and modes, we find that the two lowest energy eigenstates become degenerate, as is indicated by the behavior of the mean value of some operators and by other quantifiers as a function of the coupling. Such degenerate states are characterized by a coherent superposition of eigenstates describing one of the two modes preferentially populated and the membrane dislocated from its equilibrium position due the radiation pressure (Schrödinger's cat states). The delocalization of the compound system photons+membrane results in an increase in fluctuations as measured by Robertson-Schrödinger uncertainty relations.
