In order to fully utilize photons in the loop, the material needs to have specific optical and mechanical properties. Recently, scientists have made optical circuits for single crystal diamond substrates (high purity crystals with no more than one impurity atom per billion diamond atoms). Such loops must be small, and thus, applications in optical systems require advanced manufacturing methods.
In the KIT experiment, polycrystalline diamond made of two parallel independent waveguides is used as a mechanical resonator.
It can be observed that the light field (represented by red/blue) propagates inside
Although the crystal structure of polycrystalline diamond is more irregular, it is strong enough and easy to process. These special properties make polycrystalline diamonds more widely available than single crystal materials. Polycrystalline diamond can transmit photons almost as efficiently as a single crystal substrate material, and is more suitable for industrial use.
Patrik Rath, the first author of the study, said: "Nano-mechanical resonators are currently the most sensitive sensors for a variety of precision measurements. However, it is extremely difficult to handle these smallest components by traditional measurement methods. In our research, the fact that nanophotonic elements of the same size as nanomechanical resonators can currently be fabricated is utilized. When the resonator responds, the corresponding optical signals can be transmitted directly to the loop."
Polycrystalline diamond is manufactured in cooperation with the Fraunhofer Institute for Solid State Physics and Diamond Materials in Freiburg, Germany. The research results were published in the journal Nature Newsletter.

The IP rating of Led Vapor Tight Fixtures is 66. It is dustproof, waterproof, anti-corrosion, and anti-UV. It can effectively prevent the lamp body from being easily oxidized and broken after exposure. The integrated design makes installation more convenient and quicker. It does not need to be installed and connected in series after the lamp body is open like the traditional three-proof light. So it can effectively shorten the construction period and reduce labor costs.
There is a respirator at one end of the lamp body, which can avoid thermal expansion and contraction when the lamp body is working, and water droplets appear on the wall of the lamp body, which affects the service life of the lamp beads.
Our LED Tri-proof Light are connected in series without the use of tools. Cylindrical design, which make cleaning more easily.
