Nonlinear Radiation Pressure Dynamics in an Optomechanical Crystal.
Utilizing a silicon nanobeam optomechanical crystal, we investigate the attractor diagram arising from the radiation pressure interaction between a localized optical cavity at λ_{c}=1542 nm and a mechanical resonance at ω_{m}/2π=3.72 GHz. At a temperature of T_{b}≈10 K, highly nonlinear driving of mechanical motion is observed via continuous wave optical pumping. Introduction of a time-depen...
متن کاملNonlinear dynamics and chaos in an optomechanical beam
Optical nonlinearities, such as thermo-optic mechanisms and free-carrier dispersion, are often considered unwelcome effects in silicon-based resonators and, more specifically, optomechanical cavities, since they affect, for instance, the relative detuning between an optical resonance and the excitation laser. Here, we exploit these nonlinearities and their intercoupling with the mechanical degr...
متن کاملMeasurement of radiation-pressure-induced optomechanical dynamics in a suspended Fabry-Perot cavity
We report on experimental observation of radiation-pressure induced effects in a high-power optical cavity. These effects play an important role in next generation gravitational wave (GW) detectors, as well as in quantum non-demolition (QND) interferometers. We measure the properties of an optical spring, created by coupling of an intense laser field to the pendulum mode of a suspended mirror; ...
متن کاملObservability of radiation-pressure shot noise in optomechanical systems
We present a theoretical study of an experiment designed to detect radiation-pressure shot noise in an optomechanical system. Our model consists of a coherently driven optical cavity mode that is coupled to a mechanical oscillator. We examine the cross-correlation between two quadratures of the output field from the cavity. We determine under which circumstances radiation-pressure shot noise ca...
متن کاملOptimized optomechanical crystal cavity with acoustic radiation shield
We present the design of an optomechanical crystal nanobeam cavity that combines finite-element simulation with numerical optimization, and considers the optomechanical coupling arising from both moving dielectric boundaries and the photo-elastic effect. Applying this methodology results in a nanobeam with an experimentally realized intrinsic optical Q-factor of 1.2× 10, a mechanical frequency ...
