Title :
The new high-Q physics: photonic clocks and back-action cooling on a chip
Author_Institution :
California Inst. of Technol., Pasadena
Abstract :
Recent demonstrations in cantilevers and microtoroids of radiation-pressure-cooling from room temperature to 10degK will be reviewed. These techniques can potentially achieve ground-state cooling of a macro-scale oscillator.
