Laser noise in cavity-optomechanical cooling and thermometry
Amir H. Safavi-Naeini, Jasper Chan, Jeff T. Hill +5
We review and study the roles of quantum and classical fluctuations in recent cavity-optomechanical experiments which have now reached the quantum regime (mechanical phonon occupan…

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…
