Acceleration sensing with magnetically levitated oscillators above a superconductor

Chris Timberlake, Giulio Gasbarri, Andrea Vinante +2

We experimentally demonstrate stable trapping of a permanent magnet sphere above a lead superconductor, in vacuum pressures of ~mbar. The levitating magnet behave…

Characterization of Non-linearities through Mechanical Squeezing in Levitated Optomechanics

Ashley Setter, Jamie Vovrosh, Hendrik Ulbricht

We demonstrate a technique to estimate the strength of non-linearities present in the trapping potential of an optically levitated nanoparticle. By applying a brief pulsed reductio…

Optimal control for feedback cooling in cavityless levitated optomechanics

Luca Ferialdi, Ashley Setter, Marko Toroš +2

We consider feedback cooling in a cavityless levitated optomechanics setup, and we investigate the possibility to improve the feedback implementation. We apply optimal control theo…

Precession Motion in Levitated Optomechanics

Muddassar Rashid, Marko Toroš, Ashley Setter +1

We investigate experimentally the dynamics of a non-spherical levitated nanoparticle in vacuum. In addition to translation and rotation motion, we observe the light torque-induced…

Real-Time Kalman Filter: Cooling of an Optically Levitated Nanoparticle

Ashley Setter, Marko Toroš, Jason F. Ralph +1

We demonstrate that a Kalman filter applied to estimate the position of an optically levitated nanoparticle, and operated in real-time within a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA)…
