Solitary waves in a phononic integrated circuit
Timothy M. F. Hirsch, Xiaoya Jin, Nicolas P. Mauranyapin +6
Solitons are universal nonlinear excitations that appear in settings as varied as optics, water waves, and quantum gases [1-5]. While reduced models of soliton dynamics are well es…
Silicon-photonic optomechanical magnetometer
Fernando Gottardo, Benjamin J. Carey, Nathaniel Bawden +7
Optomechanical sensors enable exquisitely sensitive force measurements, with emerging applications across quantum technologies, standards, fundamental science, and engineering. Mag…
Membrane phononic integrated circuits
Timothy M. F. Hirsch, Nicolas P. Mauranyapin, Erick Romero +7
Phononic circuits constructed from high tensile stress membranes offer a range of desirable features such as high acoustic confinement, controllable nonlinearities, low mass, compa…
Nanomechanical Error Correction
Xiaoya Jin, Christopher G. Baker, Erick Romero +5
Error correction is essential for modern computing systems, enabling information to be processed accurately even in the presence of noise. Here, we demonstrate a new approach which…
Precision optomechanical accelerometer via hybrid test mass integration
Nathaniel Bawden, Benjamin J. Carey, Poh-Meng Yeo +7
Accelerometers offer motion sensing capabilities across a wide range of areas, enabling navigational awareness in consumer goods and defense applications, and playing a key role in…
Nonlinear wave dynamics on a chip
Matthew T. Reeves, Walter W. Wasserman, Raymond A. Harrison +7
Shallow water waves are a striking example of nonlinear hydrodynamics, giving rise to phenomena such as tsunamis and undular waves. These dynamics are typically studied in hundreds…
