Floquet Control of Optomechanical Bistability in Multimode Systems

Dynamical interactions famously provide a means to induce distinct steady states. In this respect, nanomechanical resonators are particularly interesting because they can be described by a double-well potential where their motions are amplified and subsequently cool down to a …
