Boundary-dominated optomechanics in silicon metamaterial membranes
David González‐Andrade, Paula Nuño Ruano, Jianhao Zhang, Paul J. Robin et autres
Stimulated Brillouin scattering in integrated photonic waveguides enables coherent coupling between optical photons and gigahertz acoustic phonons, providing a powerful mechanism for on-chip microwave photonics and opto-acoustic signal processing. Despite theoretical predictions of ultra-strong Brillouin interactions arising from enhanced light-sound coupling at …
