Controlling mode orientations and frequencies in levitated cavity optomechanics

Cavity optomechanics offers quantum ground state cooling, control and measurement of small mechanical oscillators. However optomechanical backactions disturb the oscillator motions: they shift mechanical frequencies and, for a levitated oscillator, rotate the spatial orientation of the mechanical mo...
