Quadrature squeezing enhances Wigner negativity in a mechanical Duffing oscillator

Christian A. Rosiek, Massimiliano Rossi, Albert Schliesser +1

Generating macroscopic non-classical quantum states is a long-standing challenge in physics. Anharmonic dynamics is an essential ingredient to generate these states, but for large…

Suppressing Recoil Heating in Levitated Optomechanics using Squeezed Light

C. Gonzalez-Ballestero, J. A. Zielińska, M. Rossi +5

We theoretically show that laser recoil heating in free-space levitated optomechanics can be arbitrarily suppressed by shining squeezed light onto an optically trapped nanoparticle…

Encoding information in the mutual coherence of spatially separated light beams

Alfonso Nardi, Shawn Divitt, Massimiliano Rossi +4

Coherence has been used as a resource for optical communications since its earliest days. It is widely used for multiplexing of data, but not for encoding of data. Here we introduc…

Ponderomotive squeezing of light by a levitated nanoparticle in free space

Andrei Militaru, Massimiliano Rossi, Felix Tebbenjohanns +3

A mechanically compliant element can be set into motion by the interaction with light. In turn, this light-driven motion can give rise to ponderomotive correlations in the electrom…

Controlling spatial coherence with an optical complex medium

Alfonso Nardi, Felix Tebbenjohanns, Massimiliano Rossi +5

Control over optical spatial coherence is a key requirement in diverse applications including imaging, optical trapping, and communications. Current approaches to controlling spati…

Quantum control of a nanoparticle optically levitated in cryogenic free space

Felix Tebbenjohanns, M. Luisa Mattana, Massimiliano Rossi +2

Tests of quantum mechanics on a macroscopic scale require extreme control over mechanical motion and its decoherence. Quantum control of mechanical motion has been achieved by engi…
