Ultrahigh-Q Mechanical Oscillators Through Optical Trapping of Tethered Membranes

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We demonstrate a technique to push the quality factor of a micro-mechanical resonator beyond conventional material and fabrication limits by using an optical field to stiffen and trap a particular motional mode.
