Electromagnetically Induced Transparency and Slow Light with Optomechanics
Amir H. Safavi-Naeini, Thiago P. Mayer Alegre, Jasper Chan +6
Controlling the interaction between localized optical and mechanical excitations has recently become possible following advances in micro- and nano-fabrication techniques. To date,…
Proposal for an Optomechanical Traveling Wave Phonon-Photon Translator
Amir H. Safavi-Naeini, Oskar Painter
In this article we describe a general optomechanical system for converting photons to phonons in an efficient, and reversible manner. We analyze classically and quantum mechanicall…
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…
Slowing and stopping light using an optomechanical crystal array
Darrick Chang, Amir H. Safavi-Naeini, Mohammad Hafezi +1
One of the major advances needed to realize all-optical information processing of light is the ability to delay or coherently store and retrieve optical information in a rapidly tu…
