Slow thermo-optomechanical pulsations in suspended 1D photonic crystal nanocavities
Piergiacomo Z. G. Fonseca, Irene Alda, Francesco Marino +4
We investigate the nonlinear optical response of suspended 1D photonic crystal nanocavities fabricated on a silicon nitride chip. Strong thermo-optical nonlinearities are demonstra…
Tailoring the thermal expansion of graphene via controlled defect creation
Guillermo López-Polín, Maria Ortega, J. G. Vilhena +5
Contrary to most materials, graphene exhibits a negative thermal expansion coefficient (TEC), i.e it contracts when heated. This contraction is due to the thermal excitation of low…
Trapping and manipulation of individual nanoparticles in a planar Paul trap
Irene Alda, Johann Berthelot, Raúl A. Rica +1
Visualization and manipulation of nanoscale matter is one of the main and current challenges in nanosciences. To this aim, different techniques have been recently developed to non-…
