Strong Optomechanical Squeezing of Light
We create squeezed light by exploiting the quantum nature of the mechanical interaction between laser light and a membrane mechanical resonator embedded in an optical cavity. The radiation-pressure shot noise (fluctuating optical force from quantum laser amplitude noise) induces resonator motion wel...
