For a low finesse cavity established by an uncoated cantilever and the fiber end, the resonance frequency and spring constant are shifted mainly due to radiation pressure whereas the Q-factor is varied due to photothermal forces under typical conditions. We find, that radiation pressure and photothermal force act in opposite directions and discuss the retardation times governing the antagonistic effects differing by orders of magnitude.
