Optical design of split-beam photonic crystal nanocavities

open access: yes, 2013
We design high quality factor photonic crystal nanobeam cavities formed by two mechanically isolated cantilevers. These "split-beam" cavities have a physical gap at the center, allowing mechanical excitations of one or both of the cavity halves. They are

Optomechanical zipper cavity lasers: theoretical analysis of tuning range and stability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The design of highly wavelength tunable semiconductor laser structures is presented. The system is based on a one dimensional photonic crystal cavity consisting of two patterned, doubly-clamped nanobeams, otherwise known as a "zipper" cavity.

Mechanical Stress Evolution in Polycrystalline Ge Thin Films Under MeV Ion Irradiation

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Irradiation of polycrystalline Ge thin films with 1.8 MeV Au ions alters residual stress through defect generation and lattice expansion. Increasing fluence drives progressive lattice disorder and eventual amorphization. Polycrystalline Ge resists amorphization longer than crystalline Ge, as grain boundaries facilitate defect diffusion, significantly ...

Silicon On-Chip One-Dimensional Photonic Crystal Nanobeam Bandgap Filter Integrated With Nanobeam Cavity for Accurate Refractive Index Sensing

open access: yesIEEE Photonics Journal, 2016
A novel method for integration of high-performance 1-D photonic crystal nanobeam bandgap filter (1-D PC-NBF) and high-sensitivity 1-D PC nanobeam cavity sensor (1-D PC-NCS) is proposed on a monolithic silicon chip. The 1-D PC-NBF consists of a simple 1-D

Deterministic design of wavelength scale, ultra-high Q photonic crystal nanobeam cavities

open access: yes, 2011
Photonic crystal nanobeam cavities are versatile platforms of interest for optical communications, optomechanics, optofluidics, cavity QED, etc. In a previous work \cite{quan10}, we proposed a deterministic method to achieve ultrahigh \emph{Q} cavities ...

Transducers Across Scales and Frequencies: A System‐Level Framework for Multiphysics Integration and Co‐Design

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Transducers convert physical signals into electrical and optical representations, yet each mechanism is bounded by intrinsic trade‐offs across bandwidth, sensitivity, speed, and energy. This review maps transduction mechanisms across physical scale and frequency, showing how heterogeneous integration and multiphysics co‐design transform isolated ...

Modeling Dispersive Coupling and Losses of Localized Optical and Mechanical Modes in Optomechanical Crystals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Periodically structured materials can sustain both optical and mechanical excitations which are tailored by the geometry. Here we analyze the properties of dispersively coupled planar photonic and phononic crystals: optomechanical crystals. In particular,

New Directions in Focused Ion Beam Induced Deposition for the Nanoprinting of Functional 3D Heterostructures

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Here, it is shown that focused ion beam induced deposition (FIBID) using helium and neon ions enables advanced high‐resolution 3D nanoprinting achieving precise multimaterial architectures and engineered internal voids. Thus, FIBID with finely focused noble gas ion species is presented as a unique platform for designing functional nanomaterials for ...
