We present a comprehensive overview of sensor technology exploiting optical whispering
gallery mode (WGM) resonances. After a short introduction we begin by detailing the …

This is a review on theoretical and experimental studies on dielectric microcavities, which
play a significant role in fundamental and applied research. The basic concepts and theories …

Advances in the research of interactions between ultrafast free electrons and light have
introduced a previously unknown kind of quantum matter, quantum free-electron …

The coupling of optical and mechanical degrees of freedom is the underlying principle of
many techniques to measure mechanical displacement, from macroscale gravitational wave …

We describe how strong resonant interactions in multimode optomechanical systems can be
used to induce controlled nonlinear couplings between single photons and phonons …

The coupling of mechanical and optical degrees of freedom via radiation pressure has been
a subject of early research in the context of gravitational wave detection. Recent …
