Journal ArticleDOI

Cavity Optomechanics

TL;DR: The field of cavity optomechanics explores the interaction between electromagnetic radiation and nano-or micromechanical motion as mentioned in this paper, which explores the interactions between optical cavities and mechanical resonators.
Journal ArticleDOI

Laser cooling of a nanomechanical oscillator into its quantum ground state

TL;DR: In this article, a coupled, nanoscale optical and mechanical resonator formed in a silicon microchip is used to cool the mechanical motion down to its quantum ground state (reaching an average phonon occupancy number of 0.85±0.08).
Journal ArticleDOI

Self-cooling of a micromirror by radiation pressure

TL;DR: The observation of self-cooling of a micromirror by radiation pressure inside a high-finesse optical cavity is reported, indicating changes in intensity in a detuned cavity, provide the mechanism for entropy flow from the mirror’s oscillatory motion to the low-entropy cavity field.
Journal ArticleDOI

Observation of strong coupling between a micromechanical resonator and an optical cavity field

TL;DR: The observation of optomechanical normal mode splitting is reported, which provides unambiguous evidence for strong coupling of cavity photons to a mechanical resonator, which paves the way towards full quantum optical control of nano- and micromechanical devices.
