Self-Sustained Laser Pulsation in Active Optomechanical Devices by Debora Princepe, Gustavo S. Wiederhecker, Ivan Favero, Newton C. Frateschi

“…In order to investigate this effect, we propose a bullseye-shaped device with high confinement of both the optical and the mechanical modes at the edge of a disk combined with a dissipative structure in its vicinity. The dispersive interaction is promoted by the strong photoelastic effect while the dissipative mechanism is governed by the boundary motion mechanism, enhanced by near-field interaction with the absorptive structure. …”
