A microchip optomechanical accelerometer
Alexander G. Krause, Martin Winger, Tim D. Blasius +2
The monitoring of accelerations is essential for a variety of applications ranging from inertial navigation to consumer electronics. The basic operation principle of an acceleromet…
Quasi-two-dimensional optomechanical crystals with a complete phononic bandgap
Thiago P. Mayer Alegre, Amir Safavi-Naeini, Martin Winger +1
A fully planar two-dimensional optomechanical crystal formed in a silicon microchip is used to create a structure devoid of phonons in the GHz frequency range. A nanoscale photonic…
Optomechanics in an ultrahigh-Q slotted 2D photonic crystal cavity
Amir H. Safavi-Naeini, Thiago P. Mayer Alegre, Martin Winger +1
Optical guided wave dielectric structures with nanoscale slots are known to provide strong electric field enhancements in the slotted region, enabling strong light-matter interacti…
