Cavity Optomechanics in Photonic and Phononic Crystals: Engineering the Interaction of Light and Sound at the Nanoscale
<p>The dynamic back-action caused by electromagnetic forces (radiation pressure) in optical and microwave cavities is of growing interest. Back-action cooling, for example, is being pursued as a means of achieving the quantum ground state of macroscopic mechanical oscillators. Work in the op...
