Physicists skirt thermal vibration, transfer optical signal via mechanical oscillator

Thursday, November 15, 2012 - 21:00 in Physics & Chemistry

Using tiny radiation pressure forces, physicists converted an optical field, or signal, from one color to another, aided by a "dark mode." The conversion occurs through the coupling between light and a mechanical oscillator, without interruption by thermal mechanical vibrations.
