Abstract
The escape time from the lower energy state
of the bistable nonlinear driven
microcavity oscillator have been obtained analitically by means of
quasiclassical kinetic
equation in the basis of quasienergy states. The dependence of the
escape time on the intensity of the external field is in rather good
agreement with the results of
numerical experiments. Moreover, the numerical dependencies of escape
time on damping parameter reveal smooth crossover from exponential to
diffusive like behavior.
