Abstract
The optomechanical crystal nanobeam resonator has attracted the attention of researchers due to its high optomechanical coupling rate and small modal volume. In this study, we propose a high-optomechanical-coupling-rate heterostructure with a gradient cavity, and the optomechanical rates of the single mirror and [...] Read more.
The optomechanical crystal nanobeam resonator has attracted the attention of researchers due to its high optomechanical coupling rate and small modal volume. In this study, we propose a high-optomechanical-coupling-rate heterostructure with a gradient cavity, and the optomechanical rates of the single mirror and hetero-optomechanical crystal nanobeam resonators are calculated. The results demonstrate that the heterostructure based on the utilization of two mirror regions realizes better confinement of the optical and mechanical modes. In addition, the mechanical breathing mode at 9.75 GHz and optical mode with a working wavelength of 1.17 μm are demonstrated with an optomechanical coupling rate g0 = 3.81 MHz between them, and the mechanical quality factor is increased to 3.18 × 106.

Multimode optomechanics exhibiting several intriguing phenomena, such as coherent wavelength conversion, optomechanical synchronization, and mechanical entanglements, has garnered considerable research interest for realizing a new generation of information processing devices and exploring macroscopic quantum effect. In this study, we proposed and designed a hetero-optomechanical crystal (OMC) zipper cavity comprising double OMC nanobeams as a versatile platform for multimode optomechanics. Herein, the heterostructure and breathing modes with high mechanical frequency ensured the operation of the zipper cavity at the deep-sideband-resolved regime and the mechanical coherence. Consequently, the mechanical breathing mode at 5.741 GHz and optical odd mode with an intrinsic optical Q factor of 3.93 × 105 were experimentally demonstrated with an optomechanical coupling rate g0 = 0.73 MHz between them, which is comparable to state-of-the-art properties of the reported OMC. In addition, the hetero-zipper cavity structure exhibited adequate degrees of freedom for designing multiple mechanical and optical modes. Thus, the proposed cavity will provide a playground for studying multimode optomechanics in both the classical and quantum regimes. Full article
