Phononic bandgap nano-acoustic cavity with ultralong phonon lifetime
Gregory S. MacCabe, Hengjiang Ren, Jie Luo +5
We present measurements at millikelvin temperatures of the microwave-frequency acoustic properties of a crystalline silicon nanobeam cavity incorporating a phononic bandgap clampin…
Diamond optomechanical crystals
Michael J. Burek, Justin D. Cohen, Seán M. Meenehan +11
Cavity-optomechanical systems realized in single-crystal diamond are poised to benefit from its extraordinary material properties, including low mechanical dissipation and a wide o…
Pulsed excitation dynamics of an optomechanical crystal resonator near its quantum ground-state of motion
Sean M. Meenehan, Justin D. Cohen, Gregory S. MacCabe +3
Using pulsed optical excitation and read-out along with single phonon counting techniques, we measure the transient back-action, heating, and damping dynamics of a nanoscale silico…
Phonon counting and intensity interferometry of a nanomechanical resonator

A significant challenge in the development of chip-scale cavity-optomechanical devices as testbeds for quantum experiments and classical metrology lies in the coupling of light fro…
Trapped Atoms in One-Dimensional Photonic Crystals
C. -L. Hung, S. M. Meenehan, D. E. Chang +2
We describe one-dimensional photonic crystals that support a guided mode suitable for atom trapping within a unit cell, as well as a second probe mode with strong atom-photon inter…
Electrostatically tunable optomechanical "zipper" cavity laser
Raviv Perahia, Justin Cohen, Sean Meenehan +2
A tunable nanoscale "zipper" laser cavity, formed from two doubly clamped photonic crystal nanobeams, is demonstrated. Pulsed, room temperature, optically pumped lasing action at a…
