Thermal properties of nanocrystalline silicon nanobeams
Jeremie Maire, Emigdio Chavez-Angel, Guillermo Arregui +7
Controlling thermal energy transfer at the nanoscale has become critically important in many applications and thermal properties since it often limits device performance. In this w…
Injection locking in an optomechanical coherent phonon source
Guillermo Arregui, Martin Facundo Colombano, Jérémie Maire +6
Spontaneous locking of the phase of a coherent phonon source to an external reference is demonstrated in an optomechanical oscillator based on a self-triggered free-carrier/tempera…
Properties of Nanocrystalline Silicon Probed by Optomechanics
Daniel Navarro-Urrios, Martin F. Colombano, Jeremie Maire +13
Nanocrystalline materials exhibit properties that can differ substantially from those of their single crystal counterparts. As such, they provide ways to enhance and optimise their…
Optical modulation of coherent phonon emission in optomechanical cavities
J. Maire, N. E. Capuj, M. F. Colombano +4
Optomechanical structures are well suited to study photon-phonon interactions, and they also turn out to be potential building blocks for phononic circuits and quantum computing. I…
