Mesoscopic chaos mediated by Drude electron-hole plasma in silicon optomechanical oscillators

Chaotic behaviour of optomechanical systems has only recently been investigated and observed. Here, Wuet al. study the chaos dynamics in a silicon platform where coupled electron-hole plasma dynamics is possible, providing a route towards chip-scale mesoscopic nonlinear dynamics.
