Efficient Conversion of Optical to Mechanical States Close to the Single-Quantum Level
Alexander Rolf Korsch, Liu Chen, Pedro V. Pinho +5
Coherent interfaces between optical photons and mechanical excitations provide a promising route towards phonon-state engineering and hybrid quantum information processing. Cavity…
A cryogenic chamber setup for superfluid helium experiments with optical fiber and electrical access
Alexander R. Korsch, Niccolò Fiaschi, Simon Gröblacher
Superfluid helium is a prototypical quantum liquid. As such, it has been a prominent platform for the study of quantum many body physics. More recently, the outstanding mechanical…
Time-resolved spectral diffusion of a multimode mechanical memory
Niccolò Fiaschi, Lorenzo Scarpelli, Alexander Rolf Korsch +2
High-frequency phonons hold great promise as carriers of quantum information on-chip and as quantum memories. Due to their coherent interaction with several systems, their compact…
Low-noise Optomechanical Single Phonon-photon Conversion for Quantum Networks
Liu Chen, Alexander Rolf Korsch, Cauê Moreno Kersul +4
Nano-structured optomechanical crystals (OMC) form an interface between mechanical modes with long coherence times and telecom optical photons, ideal for long-distance distribution…
Phononic Crystals in Superfluid Thin-Film Helium
Alexander Rolf Korsch, Niccolò Fiaschi, Simon Gröblacher
In recent years, nanomechanical oscillators in thin films of superfluid helium have attracted attention in the field of optomechanics due to their exceptionally low mechanical diss…
Tuning the mode-splitting of a semiconductor microcavity with uniaxial stress
Natasha Tomm, Alexander R. Korsch, Alisa Javadi +6
A splitting of the fundamental optical modes in micro/nano-cavities comprising semiconductor heterostructures is commonly observed. Given that this splitting plays an important rol…
