  • Abstract
    We experimentally investigate the optomechanical properties of a conventional two-dimensional suspended photonic crystal defect cavity. Particularly, we measure localized mechanical modes in the GHz regime exhibiting high values of the optomechanical vacuum coupling rate exceeding 250 kHz.
