Optical self-cooling of a membrane oscillator in a cavity optomechanical experiment at room temperature

P. Vezio, M. Bonaldi, A. Borrielli +5

Thermal noise is a major obstacle to observing quantum behavior in macroscopic systems. To mitigate its effect, quantum optomechanical experiments are typically performed in a cryo…
