Mechanical characterization of a membrane with an on-chip loss shield in a cryogenic environment
Francesco Marzioni, Riccardo Natali, Michele Bonaldi +9
The quantum transduction of an rf/microwave signal to the optical domain, and vice versa, paves the way for technologies that exploit the advantages of each domain to perform quant…
Low Noise Opto-Electro-Mechanical Modulator for RF-to-Optical Transduction in Quantum Communications
Michele Bonaldi, Antonio Borrielli, Giovanni Di Giuseppe +7
In this work, we present an Opto-Electro-Mechanical Modulator (OEMM) for RF-to-optical transduction realized via an ultra-coherent nanomembrane resonator capacitively coupled to an…
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…
Active feedback cooling of a SiN membrane resonator by electrostatic actuation
Antonio Borrielli, Michele Bonaldi, Enrico Serra +2
Feedback-based control techniques are useful tools in precision measurements as they allow to actively shape the mechanical response of high quality factor oscillators used in forc…
Silicon-nitride nanosensors toward room temperature quantum optomechanics
Enrico Serra, Antonio Borrielli, Francesco Marin +9
Observation of quantum phenomena in cryogenic, optically cooled mechanical resonators has been recently achieved by a few experiments based on cavity optomechanics. A well-establis…
Quantum motion of a squeezed mechanical oscillator attained via a optomechanical experiment
P. Vezio, A. Chowdhury, M. Bonaldi +7
We experimentally investigate a mechanical squeezed state realized in a parametrically-modulated membrane resonator embedded in an optical cavity. We demonstrate that a quantum cha…
