Stability of Resonant Opto-Mechanical Oscillators
arXiv:1203.2588 · doi:10.1364/OE.20.016234
Abstract
We theoretically study the frequency stability of an opto-mechanical radio frequency oscillator based on resonant interaction of two optical and one mechanical modes of the same optical microcavity. A generalized expression for the phase noise of the oscillator is derived using Langevin formalism and compared to the phase noise of existing electronic oscillators.
