Optomechanical transduction is demonstrated for nanoscale torsional
resonators evanescently coupled to optical microdisk whispering gallery mode
resonators. The on-chip, integrated devices are measured using a fully
fiber-based system, including a tapered and dimpled optical fiber probe. With a
thermomechanically calibrated optomechanical noise floor down to 7 fm/sqrt(Hz),
these devices open the door for a wide range of physical measurements involving
extremely small torques, as little as 4x10^-20 N*m.
