contents In this work, we propose a novel experimental set-up using charged resonant gravitational wave detectors. We exploit the semi-classical analogue of the Gertsenshtein effect where the gravitational wave acts as an modulator for the optomechanical system. We consider a cavity QED scenario where the Weber bar is placed inside an electromagnetically shielded cavity. We observer that when the gravitational wave falls on the Weber bar, it emits photon which signifies the detection of gravitational waves by the resonant bars. The frequency controlled spontaneous emission scenario will shed a new light on future generation of efficient gravitational wave detector models.
