The dust disk confirming the presence of an ionized disk wind in the massive young stellar object, S140-IRS1, is resolved for the first time. The 1.3 mm continuum observations taken with the CARMA A array configuration achieve a resolution of ∼0.''12, probing scales of 100 au. The dust disk is elongated in a direction aligned with a previously discovered ionized disk wind. Both are perpendicular to the large scale molecular outflow and near-infrared reflection nebula. A two-dimensional axis-symmetric radiative transfer model is used to produce synthetic images and visibilities for comparison with the observations. Using a 2D visibility fitting method the position angle of the dusty disk is constrained to 40°±5°. This result confirms the disk wind nature of the radio emission from S140-IRS1 and shows that radiation pressure on the gas in the disk is important in the later stages of the massive star formation evolutionary sequence.
