We propose a technique aimed at cooling a harmonically oscillating mirror toits quantum mechanical ground state starting from room temperature. Our method,which involves the two-sided irradiation of the vibrating mirror inside anoptical cavity, combines several advantages over the two-mirror arrangementsbeing used currently. For comparable parameters the three-mirror configurationprovides a stiffer trap for the oscillating mirror. Furthermore it preventsbistability from limiting the use of higher laser powers for mirror trapping,and also partially does so for mirror cooling. Lastly, it improves theisolation of the mirror from classical noise so that its dynamics are perturbedmostly by the vacuum fluctuations of the optical fields. These improvements areexpected to bring the task of achieving ground state occupation for the mirrorcloser to completion.
