Description for Quantum Opto-mechanics with Micromirrors
Hardback. This book investigates the effects of the radiation-pressure force of light on macroscopic mechanical structures. Includes detailed descriptions of several novel experiments. Series: Springer Theses. Num Pages: 156 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PHJ; PHQ. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 162 x 241 x 21. Weight in Grams: 756.
Quantum effects in macroscopic systems have long been a fascination for researchers. Over the past decade mechanical oscillators have emerged as a leading system of choice for many such experiments. The work reported in this thesis investigates the effects of the radiation-pressure force of light on macroscopic mechanical structures. The basic system studied is a mechanical oscillator that is highly reflective and part of an optical resonator. It interacts with the optical cavity mode via the radiation-pressure force. Both the dynamics of the
mechanical oscillation and the properties of the light field are modified through this interaction. The experiments ... Read more
