Sail membranes for optomechanical accelerometry
Atkin D. Hyatt, Mitul Dey Chowdhury, Mahir Chowdhury +2
Strained membrane resonators have emerged as a promising platform for optomechanical accelerometry; however, the desired combination of low frequency and high -mass product requ…
Thermal intermodulation backaction in a high-cooperativity optomechanical system
Christian M. Pluchar, Aman R. Agrawal, Dalziel J. Wilson
The pursuit of room temperature quantum optomechanics with tethered nanomechanical resonators faces stringent challenges owing to extraneous mechanical degrees of freedom. An impor…
Optomechanical cooling and inertial sensing at low frequencies
Yanqi Zhang, Adam Hines, Dalziel Wilson +1
An inertial sensor design is proposed in this paper to achieve high sensitivity and large dynamic range in the sub-Hz frequency regime. High acceleration sensitivity is obtained by…
Searching for vector dark matter with an optomechanical accelerometer
Jack Manley, Mitul Dey Chowdhury, Daniel Grin +2
We consider using optomechanical accelerometers as resonant detectors for ultralight dark matter. As a concrete example, we describe a detector based on a silicon nitride membrane…
Towards cavity-free ground state cooling of an acoustic-frequency silicon nitride membrane
Christian M. Pluchar, Aman Agrawal, Edward Schenk +1
We demonstrate feedback cooling of a millimeter-scale, 40 kHz SiN membrane from room temperature to 5 mK (3000 phonons) using a Michelson interferometer, and discuss the challenges…
