GaAs disk resonators (typical disk size 5 \mum * 200 nm in our work) are good candidates for boosting optomechanical coupling thanks to their ability to confine both optical and mechanical energy in a sub-micron interaction volume. We…

We present a Hamiltonian model describing two pairs of mechanical and optical modes under standard optomechanical interaction. The vibrational modes are mechanically isolated from each other and the optical modes couple evanescently. We…
Hole spins in semiconductors are a potential qubit alternative to electron spins. In nuclear-spin-rich host crystals like GaAs, the hyperfine interaction of hole spins with nuclei is considerably weaker than that for electrons, leading to…
