Phonon Laser Action in a Tunable, Two-level System

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We demonstrate a compound optical microcavity system, coupled to a radio-frequency mechanical mode, operating in close analogy to a two-level laser. Inversion produces gain, causing phonon laser action above a pump threshold of 7 μW.
