Optomechanical Coupling in a Two-Dimensional Photonic Crystal Defect Cavity.

The team of Prof. Tobias Kippenberg (LPQM1 - Laboratory of Photonics and Quantum Measurements) investigate and observe experimentally the optomechanical properties of a conventional two-dimensional suspended photonic crystal defect cavity with a mode volume of ∼3(λ/n)3.
