Physics, 2009 We review recent progress in the field of optomechanics, where one studies the effects of radiation on mechanical motion. The paradigmatic example is an optical cavity with a movable mirror, where the radiation pressure can induce cooling, amplification ...

Physical Review Letters, 2011 Optomechanics experiments are rapidly approaching the regime where the radiation pressure of a single photon displaces the mechanical oscillator by more than its zero-point uncertainty. We show that in this limit the power spectrum has multiple sidebands

Scientific Reports, 2015 AbstractCavity optomechanics explores the interaction between optical field and mechanical motion. So far, this interaction has relied on the detuning between a passive optical resonator and an external pump laser. Here, we report a new scheme with mutual coupling between a mechanical oscillator supporting the mirror of a laser and the optical field ...

Optomechanical mass spectrometry [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2020 AbstractNanomechanical mass spectrometry has proven to be well suited for the analysis of high mass species such as viruses. Still, the use of one-dimensional devices such as vibrating beams forces a trade-off between analysis time and mass resolution.

Reviews of Modern Physics, 2014 We review the field of cavity optomechanics, which explores the interaction between electromagnetic radiation and nano- or micromechanical motion. This review covers the basics of optical cavities and mechanical resonators, their mutual optomechanical interaction mediated by the radiation pressure force, the large variety of experimental systems which ...

Pulsed quantum optomechanics [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2011 Studying mechanical resonators via radiation pressure offers a rich avenue for the exploration of quantum mechanical behavior in a macroscopic regime. However, quantum state preparation and especially quantum state reconstruction of mechanical oscillators remains a significant challenge.

Optomechanically Induced Transparency [PDF]
CLEO:2011 - Laser Applications to Photonic Applications, 2010 Mechanical Transparency In atomic gases and other solid-state systems with appropriate energy levels, manipulation of the optical properties can be induced with a control pulse, allowing the system to transmit light of specific wavelengths that would otherwise have been absorbed.

Force Dependent Quantum Phase Transition in the Hybrid Optomechanical System
Photonics, 2021 The optomechanics shows a great potential in quantum control and precise measurement due to appropriate mechanical control. Here we theoretically study the quantum phase transition in a hybrid atom-optomechanical cavity with an external force.

Optomechanical inertial sensors
Applied Optics, 2020 We present a performance analysis of compact monolithic optomechanical inertial sensors that describes their key fundamental limits and overall acceleration noise floor. Performance simulations for low-frequency gravity-sensitive inertial sensors show attainable acceleration noise floors on the order of 1 × 10 −
