Squeezing below the ground state of motion of a continuously monitored levitating nanoparticle

Qiongyuan Wu, Diana A. Chisholm, Rafael Muffato +5

Squeezing is a crucial resource for quantum information processing and quantum sensing. In levitated nanomechanics, squeezed states of motion can be generated via temporal control…

Generation of classical non-Gaussian distributions by squeezing a thermal state into non-linear motion of levitated optomechanics

Rafael Muffato, Tiberius Georgescu, Jack Homans +6

We report on an experiment achieving the dynamical generation of non-Gaussian states of motion of a levitated optomechanical system. We access intrinsic Duffing-like nonlinearities…

Non-equilibrium quantum thermodynamics of a particle trapped in a controllable time-varying potential

Qiongyuan Wu, Matteo Carlesso

Non-equilibrium thermodynamics can provide strong advantages when compared to more standard equilibrium situations. Here, we present a general framework to study its application to…

Quantifying protocol efficiency: a thermodynamic figure of merit for classical and quantum state-transfer protocols

Qiongyuan Wu, Mario A. Ciampini, Mauro Paternostro +1

Manipulating quantum systems undergoing non-Gaussian dynamics in a fast and accurate manner is becoming fundamental to many quantum applications. Here, we focus on classical and qu…

Non-equilibrium quantum thermodynamics of a particle trapped in a controllable time-varying potential

Qiongyuan Wu, Luca Mancino, Matteo Carlesso +4

Many advanced quantum techniques feature non-Gaussian dynamics, and the ability to manipulate the system in that domain is the next-stage in many experiments. One example of meanin…

Non-equilibrium thermodynamics of quantum processes assisted by transitionless quantum driving: the role of initial state preparation

Qiongyuan Wu, Giovanni Barontini, Mauro Paternostro

Adiabatic evolution is considered to be the ideal situation for most thermodynamic cycles, as it allows for the achievement of maximum efficiency. However, no power output is produ…
