Opto-mechanical oscillators that generate coherent acoustic waves are drawing much interest, in both fundamental research and applications. Narrowband oscillations can be obtained through the introduction of feedback to the acoustic wave.…
Ultra-high frequency acoustic resonances ($\backsim$2 GHz) trapped within the glass core ($\backsim$1 $\mu$m diameter) of a photonic crystal fiber are selectively excited through electrostriction using laser pulses of duration 100 ps and…
Coherent control is an optical technique to manipulate quantum states of matter. The coherent control of 40-THz optical phonons in diamond was demonstrated by using a pair of sub-10-fs optical pulses. The optical phonons were detected via…

Coherent control of the resonant response in spatially extended optomechanical structures is complicated by the fact that the optical drive is affected by the back-action from the generated phonons. Here we report a new approach to coherent…
