Thermo-optical effects on the transduction of mechanical motion of a microspherical pendulum

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingsChapterpeer-review

Abstract

We investigate the thermo-optical effects on the transduction of the mechanical motion of a microspherical pendulum evanescently coupled to a tapered optical fiber. Pendulum motion of 1-2 nm is determined by forced gap and frequency modulation.
