Switchable Damping for a One-Particle Oscillator
arXiv:2011.08136 · doi:10.1063/5.0038005
Abstract
The possibility to switch the damping rate for a one-electron oscillator is demonstrated, for an electron that oscillates along the magnetic field axis in a Penning trap. Strong axial damping can be switched on to allow this oscillation to be used for quantum nondemolition detection of the cyclotron and spin quantum state of the electron. Weak axial damping can be switched on to circumvent the backaction of the detection motion that has limited past measurements. The newly developed switch will reduce the linewidth of the cyclotron transition of one-electron by two orders of magnitude.
