Abstract
The optomechanical crystal nanobeam resonator has attracted the attention of researchers due to its high optomechanical coupling rate and small modal volume. In this study, we propose a high-optomechanical-coupling-rate heterostructure with a gradient cavity, and the optomechanical rates of the single mirror and hetero-optomechanical crystal nanobeam resonators are calculated. The results demonstrate that the heterostructure based on the utilization of two mirror regions realizes better confinement of the optical and mechanical modes. In addition, the mechanical breathing mode at 9.75 GHz and optical mode with a working wavelength of 1.17 μm are demonstrated with an optomechanical coupling rate g0 = 3.81 MHz between them, and the mechanical quality factor is increased to 3.18 × 106.
