Stimulated Raman adiabatic passage in optomechanics
Vitaly Fedoseev, Fernando Luna, Ian Hedgepeth +2
Stimulated Raman adiabatic passage (STIRAP) describes adiabatic population transfer between two states coherently coupled via a mediating state that remains unoccupied. This render…
Optimal Optomechanical Coupling Strength in Multi-Membrane Systems
David C. Newsom, Fernando Luna, Vitaly Fedoseev +2
We calculate the optomechanical coupling strength for a multi-membrane in a cavity system. The optimal configuration for an array of membranes placed near the center of a cavit…
Strong Thermo-mechanical Squeezing in a far detuned Membrane-in-the-middle System
Sameer Sonar, Vitaly Fedoseev, Matthew Weaver +5
We demonstrate 8.5 dB thermal squeezing of a membrane oscillator using the dynamical backaction effect and electrostatic feedback in an optomechanical membrane-in-the-middle setup.…
Phonon Interferometry for Measuring Quantum Decoherence
Matthew J. Weaver, David Newsom, Fernando Luna +2
Experimental observation of the decoherence of macroscopic objects is of fundamental importance to the study of quantum collapse models and the quantum to classical transition. Opt…
Coherent Optomechanical State Transfer between Disparate Mechanical Resonators
Matthew J. Weaver, Frank M. Buters, Fernando Luna +4
Hybrid quantum systems have been developed with various mechanical, optical and microwave harmonic oscillators. The coupling produces a rich library of interactions including two m…
High-Q nested resonator in an actively stabilized optomechanical cavity
Frank M. Buters, Kier Heeck, Hedwig J. Eerkens +4
Experiments involving micro- and nanomechanical resonators need to be carefully designed to reduce mechanical environmental noise. A small scale on-chip approach is to add an addit…
Nested Trampoline Resonators for Optomechanics
Matthew J. Weaver, Brian Pepper, Fernando Luna +7
Two major challenges in the development of optomechanical devices are achieving a low mechanical and optical loss rate and vibration isolation from the environment. We address both…
