Design of dual-core optical fibers with NEMS functionality

An optical fiber with nano-electromechanical functionality is presented. The fiber exhibits a suspended dual-core structure that allows for control of the optical properties via nanometer-range mechanical movements. We investigate electrostatic actuation achieved by applying a voltage to specially d...
