Optomechanical systems couple light stored inside an optical resonator to the motion of a mechanical mode. Recent experiments have demonstrated setups, such as photonic crystal structures, that in principle allow one to confine several optical and vibrational modes on a single chip. For an array of several coupled optomechanical cells interesting nonlinear behaviour, especially synchronisation, arises. Here we investigate these dynamics and the effects of external noise thereupon. In particular we show how synchronisation affects phase stability.
