A macroscopic object passively cooled into its quantum ground state of motion: beyond single-mode cooling

D. Cattiaux, I. Golokolenov, S. Kumar +8

The building blocks of Nature, namely atoms and elementary particles, are described by quantum mechanics. This fundamental theory is the ground on which physicists have built their…

Microwave Optomechanically Induced Transparency and Absorption Between 250 and 450 mK

Sumit Kumar, Dylan Cattiaux, Eddy Collin +2

High-quality microwave amplifiers and notch-filters can be made from microwave optomechanical systems in which a mechanical resonator is coupled to a microwave cavity by radiation…

Beyond linear coupling in microwave optomechanics

D. Cattiaux, X. Zhou, S. Kumar +8

We explore the nonlinear dynamics of a cavity optomechanical system. Our realization consisting of a drumhead nano-electro-mechanical resonator (NEMS) coupled to a microwave cavity…

Geometrical Nonlinearity of Circular Plates and Membranes: an Alternative Method

D. Cattiaux, S. Kumar, X. Zhou +2

We apply the well-established theoretical method developed for geometrical nonlinearities of micro/nano-mechanical clamped beams to circular drums. The calculation is performed und…

On-chip thermometry for microwave optomechanics implemented in a nuclear demagnetization cryostat

X. Zhou, D. Cattiaux, R. R. Gazizulin +7

We report on microwave optomechanics measurements performed on a nuclear adiabatic demagnetization cryostat, whose temperature is determined by accurate thermometry from below 500$…
