Controlling photothermal forces and backaction in nano-optomechanical resonators through strain engineering
Menno H. Jansen, Cauê M. Kersul, Ewold Verhagen
In micro- and nanoscale optomechanical systems, radiation pressure interactions are often complemented or impeded by photothermal forces arising from thermal strain induced by opti…

Nanocavities for Molecular Optomechanics: their fundamental description and applications
Philippe Roelli, Huatian Hu, Ewold Verhagen +2
Vibrational Raman scattering -- a process where light exchanges energy with a molecular vibration through inelastic scattering -- is most fundamentally described in a quantum frame…

Strain coupling of a single exciton to a nano-optomechanical resonator
Matteo Lodde, René P. J. van Veldhoven, Ewold Verhagen +1
We demonstrate coupling of a semiconductor quantum dot (QD) to an optomechanical cavity, mediated by the strain of a nano-mechanical mode. The device comprises an optomechanical ph…
