Abstract:

Our efforts within the DARPAMTO ORCHID program focused on developing and entirely new class of micro- and nano-scale optomechanical devices in which large coupling between light and mechanical motion could be realized via radiation pressure. Application of these devices to mechanical sensors, microwave signal synthesis, and microwave photonics were explored.
