Diamond optomechanical crystals for high-frequency strain and comb generation

Elham Zohari, Waleed El-Sayed, Aria Jafari +5

Quantum optomechanical technologies benefit from mechanical oscillators that are high-frequency, can be coherently driven, and are capable of coupling to other quantum systems. Dia…

Exceptional points in diamond optomechanics

Waleed El-Sayed, Elham Zohari, Joe Itoi +6

Multimode cavity optomechanical systems allow light to couple otherwise non-interacting mechanical resonators, enabling non-Hermitian phenomena such as exceptional points, where ei…

Large-amplitude diamond optomechanics by traversing a nonlinear attractor

Peyman Parsa, Waleed El-Sayed, Parisa Behjat +2

Nonlinear dynamics clamp the amplitude of mechanical resonators driven into self-oscillation by optomechanical backaction. Here we overcome the conventional limits of self-oscillat…

Saturable absorption in defect-rich diamond nanophotonics

Christopher Coutts, Nicholas J. Sorensen, Elham Zohari +3

Diamond is a leading quantum photonics platform due to its ability to host qubits based on crystal defects such as nitrogen-vacancy centres. Fabricating nanophotonic devices from d…

Nanoscale Torsional Optomechanics

P. H. Kim, C. Doolin, B. D. Hauer +4

Optomechanical transduction is demonstrated for nanoscale torsional resonators evanescently coupled to optical microdisk whispering gallery mode resonators. The on-chip, integrated…
