An optomechanical ultrasound detector includes: a micromirror substrate; a mechanical resonator that receives ultrasound waves, oscillates at resonator frequency f.sub.r, changes cavity length L.sub.c, and produces intra-cavity light; and an optical microcavity between the micromirror substrate and
An optomechanical accelerometer includes: a fiducial mass for a microscale Fabry-Perot optical cavity; a proof mass for the microscale Fabry-Perot optical cavity, such that the proof mass oscillates in a displacement motion toward and away from the fiducial mass in response to acceleration of the
We have developed a new method for laser interferometry that uses a pulsed laser to transform high frequency (GHz) vibrations into a low frequency (MHz) optical signal that can be measured easily with a low noise photodetector. This method has been shown to have a noise floor that is 5 times lower
A sample carrier for in situ transmission electron microscopy (TEM) has a dielectric substrate with a conductive layer that forms a coplanar waveguide. The coplanar waveguide has a first and second leads formed by the conductive layer. The first lead is between an adjacent pair of second leads and
Micromechanical resonators are devices that vibrate at specified resonance frequencies and are used for timing, sensing, and signal processing. The most important performance metric for micromechanical resonators is the quality factor, which determines how quickly energy is dissipated in the
