Abstract
We have investigated the phonon dynamics of a single molecule embedded in a mechanical
resonator made of an organic crystal. The whole system is placed in an
optical resonator within the bad cavity limit. We have found that the
optical control of the molecular population affects the phonon
dynamics. Long-lived phonons are obtained when slowing down the decay
dynamics of the molecule via modulation of the transition frequency.
The discussed results are also valid for optomechanical setups based
on other types of two-level emitters and mechanical resonators.
