Cascaded injection locking of optomechanical crystal oscillators
David Alonso-Tomás, Guillermo Arregui, Laura Mercadé +4
Optomechanical oscillators stand out as high-performance and versatile candidates for serving as reference clocks in sequential photonic integrated circuits. Indeed, they have the…
Experimental Evaluation of All-Optical Up- and Down-Conversion of 3GPP 5G NR Signals using an Optomechanical Crystal Cavity Frequency Comb
Vicente Fito, Raúl Ortiz, Maria Morant +3
Optomechanical crystal cavities (OMCCs) allow the interaction between localized optical and mechanical modes through the radiation-pressure force. Driving such cavities with blue-d…
Optomechanical cavities based on epitaxial GaP on nominally (001)-oriented Si
Paula Mouriño, Laura Mercadé, Miguel Sinusía Lozano +8
Gallium phosphide (GaP) has recently received considerable attention as a suitable material for building photonic integrated circuits due to its remarkable optical and piezoelectri…
Influence of thermal effects on the optomechanical coupling rate in acousto-optic cavities
Raúl Ortiz, Laura Mercadé, Alberto Grau +2
Optomechanical (OM) cavities simultaneously localize photons and phonons, thus enhancing their mutual interaction through radiation-pressure force. This acousto-optic interaction c…
