Eigenmode orthogonality breaking and anomalous dynamics in multimode nano-optomechanical systems under non-reciprocal coupling

Understanding the dynamics of nanomechanical probes is important for improving high-sensitivity force field sensing. Here, the authors study the vibrations of a suspended nanowire in the presence of a rotational optical force field which breaks the orthogonality of the nanoresonator eigenmodes.
