Author Information

Hong X. Tang is an assistant professor in the Department of Electrical Engineering at Yale University, USA. He graduated with a BS in physics from the University of Science and Technology of China. He received his Ph.D. in Physics at Caltech, with research on magnetotransport in magnetic semiconductors, domain wall resistance and dynamics, and nanoscale transducers in nanoelectromechanical systems. After joining Yale in 2006, he started the investigation of light force effect in nanoscale optomechanical systems. Together with his team, he elucidated the gradient optical force in planar photonic structures, its bipolar behaviour and initiated a research focus on silicon optomechanics. Wolfram H.P. Pernice is a postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Electrical Engineering, Yale, USA. He obtained the DPhil degree in Electrical Engineering from Oxford University for contributions to the field of Computational Electrodynamics. Prior to joining Yale, he developed some of the world's leading photonic simulation codes in collaboration with Photon Design (UK). Currently his research focuses on the design and development of optomechanical systems. Mo Li is a postdoctoral scholar in the Department of Electrical Engineering, Yale, USA. He received B.S. degree from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC), M.S degree from Univ. of California, San Diego, USA. He obtained his Ph.D. in applied physics from Caltech with focus on piezoresistive nanomechanical transducers and its applications to nanomechanical noses. At Yale, his work has focused on photonic integration of nanomechanical structures and the study of gradient optical forces. His current research focuses on nanoelectromechanical systems, silicon photonics and optomechanical systems. http: //www.eng.yale.edu/tanglab/
