Demonstration of Strong Optical Coupling | OSA FiO20 - Yasmine Sfendla (EQUS)
Channel: Y S
Date: 2020-09-16

In this research at the Australian Research Council EQUS, photons counter-propagating in a silica microcavity exchange excitations at a rate faster than their decay rate, by scattering off superfluid surface oscillations. It's a step towards flexible on-chip phonon routing and quantum optomechanics in superfluid.
