Abstract
We theoretically determine an optimal configuration for a planar optical multilayer that is used to enhance the radiation pressure (RP) and the thermal heating in fiber-based metrology systems such as fiber-top cantilevers. The RP exerting on the metallic layer of the cantilever and the thermal heating due to optical absorption are enhanced. This enhancement can be employed to control the deflection and the vibration amplitude of the cantilever. The thicknesses of the cantilever and the coating layer for maximal RP are shown to be 50-60 nm and 20-40 nm, respectively, when a laser with an optical wavelength λ>500nm is used. The RP amplification due to the cavity effect is most effective at λâ1200nm and reaches a maximum value of 30. The heat absorption of the corresponding films is discussed. These results would be useful for optimizing the configurations of optical multilayer-based devices.
