Shot noise dominant regime for ellipsoidal nanoparticles in a linearly polarized beam
arXiv:1701.04477 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.95.053421
Abstract
Results on the heating and the parametric feedback cooling of an optically trapped anisotropic nanoparticle in the laser shot noise dominant regime are presented. The related dynamical parameters, such as the oscillating frequency and shot noise heating rate, depend on the shape of the trapped particle. For an ellipsoidal particle, the ratio of the axis lengths and the overall size controls the shot noise heating rate relative to the frequency. For a particle with smaller ellipticity or bigger size, the relative heating rate for rotation tends to be smaller than that for translation indicating a better rotational cooling. For one feedback scheme, we also present results on the lowest occupation number that can be achieved as a function of the heating rate and the amount of classical uncertainty in the position measurement.
