Displacement calibration of nanomechanical plate resonators presents a challenging task. Large nanomechanical resonator thickness reduces the amplitude of the resonator motion due to its increased spring constant and mass, and its unique…
Surface roughness influences significantly the quality factor of high frequency nanoresonators for large frequency - relaxation times within the non-Newtonian regime, where a purely elastic dynamics develops. It is shown that the influence…
The penetration depth in a Distributed Bragg Reflector (DBR) co-determines the resonance condition, quality factor, and mode volume of DBR-based microcavities. Recent studies have used an incomplete description of the penetration depth and…
We investigate the surface roughness influence on the gain from parametric amplification in nanoresonators in presence of thermomechanical and momentum exchange noise. The roughness is characterized by the rms amplitude w, the correlation…
Recent developments in thin-film fabrication and processing open up interesting possibilities for both established and emerging optics technologies. There, one of the key questions requiring more complete understanding is by how much one…
Optical multilayer coatings of high-reflective mirrors significantly determine the properties of Fabry-Perot resonators. Thermal (Brownian) noise in these coatings produce excess phase noise which can seriously degrade the sensitivity of…
Surface deformations of optical cavities and plasmonic nanoparticles are inevitable in nanophotonics. The random morphology changes of different realizations modify the associated resonance frequencies and quality factors, which may be…
Recent results have shown unprecedented control over separation distances between two metallic elements hundreds of nanometers in size, underlying the effects of free-electron nonlocal response also at mid-infrared wavelengths. Most of…
Surface acoustic wave (SAW) resonators are critical components in wireless communications and many sensing applications. They have also recently emerged as subject of study in quantum acoustics at the single phonon level. Acoustic loss…
In this work we study the quality factor associated with dissipation due to scattering of shear horizontal surface acoustic waves by random self-affine roughness. It is shown the quality factor is strongly influenced by both the surface…
We present a surface passivation method that reduces surface-related losses by almost two orders of magnitude in a highly miniaturized GaAs open microcavity. The microcavity consists of a curved dielectric distributed Bragg reflector (DBR)…
We experimentally realize a Fabry-Perot-type optical microresonator near the cesium D2 line wavelength based on a tapered optical fiber, equipped with two fiber Bragg gratings which enclose a sub-wavelength diameter waist. Owing to the very…
Relating microstructure to properties, electromagnetic, mechanical, thermal and their couplings has been a major focus of mechanics, physics and materials science. The majority of the literature focuses on deriving homogenized constitutive…
Distributed Bragg reflectors (DBRs) are one of the basic photonic structures used to define microcavities for fundamental light-matter coupling studies, as well as to optimize performance of optoelectronic and photonic devices, e.g., lasers…
Magnetic field enhancement has been studied in the past through replica and cavity cutting. Considerable progress of niobium cavity manufacturing and processing has been made since then. Wide variety of single cell cavities has been…
We demonstrate a combination of optical and electronic feedback that significantly narrows the linewidth of distributed Bragg reflector lasers (DBRs). We use optical feedback from a long external fiber path to reduce the high-frequency…
Different periodical Frequency Selective Surfaces(FSS) whose unit cell are the Split Ring Resonators (SRR) or related geometries and their corresponding complementary screens were studied. This kind of FSS, sometimes called metasurfaces,…
A Bragg resonator uses dielectric plates within a metallic cavity to confine the energy within a central free space region. The importance of the permittivity is shown with a better Q-factor possible using higher permittivity materials of…
Most theoretical treatments of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) assume ideal smooth geometries (i.e. slabs, spheres or cylinders) with well-defined surface-to-volume ratios (S/V). This same assumption is commonly adopted for naturally…
For quartz crystal resonators of thickness-shear type, the vibration frequency and mode shapes, which are key features of resonators in circuit applications, reflect the basic material and structural properties of the quartz plate and its…
