Abstract:
We propose a scheme of enhancement of Rabi coupling between two identical atomic ensembles trapped inside
an optical cavity in a membrane-in-the-middle setup. The cavity modes dispersively interact with the ensembles
and the effective interaction between the ensembles is governed by the tunneling rate of the cavity modes through
the oscillating membrane. We have shown that this interaction can be made large enough such that the Rabi
oscillation occurs in a time scale much smaller than the relevant decay time scales of the cavity modes and of
the membrane. We present the detailed analytical and numerical results and assess the feasibility of the scheme
using currently available technology
