Optically Mediated Hybridization Between Two Mechanical Modes
A. B. Shkarin, N. E. Flowers-Jacobs, S. W. Hoch +4
In this paper we study a system consisting of two nearly degenerate mechanical modes that couple to a single mode of an optical cavity. We show that this coupling leads to nearly c…
Laser micro-fabrication of concave, low-roughness features in silica
David Hunger, Christian Deutsch, Russell J. Barbour +2
We describe a micro-fabrication method to create concave features with ultra-low surface roughness in silica, either on the end facets of optical fibers or on flat substrates. The…
Fiber Fabry-Perot cavity with high finesse
David Hunger, Tilo Steinmetz, Yves Colombe +3
We have realized a fiber-based Fabry-Perot cavity with CO2 laser-machined mirrors. It combines very small size, high finesse F>=130000, small waist and mode volume, and good mode m…
