Optical and electrical feedback cooling of a silica nanoparticle levitated in a Paul trap
Lorenzo Dania, Dmitry S. Bykov, Matthias Knoll +2
All three motional modes of a charged dielectric nanoparticle in a Paul trap are cooled by direct feedback to temperatures of a few mK. We test two methods, one based on electrical…
Resolved Sideband Cooling of a Levitated Nanoparticle in the Presence of Laser Phase Noise
Nadine Meyer, Andres de los Rios Sommer, Pau Mestres +4
We investigate the influence of laser phase noise heating on resolved sideband cooling in the context of cooling the center-of-mass motion of a levitated nanoparticle in a high-fin…
Direct loading of nanoparticles under high vacuum into a Paul trap for levitodynamical experiments
Dmitry S. Bykov, Pau Mestres, Lorenzo Dania +2
Mechanical oscillators based on levitated particles are promising candidates for sensitive detectors and platforms for testing fundamental physics. The targeted quality factors for…
Unraveling the optomechanical nature of plasmonic trapping
Pau Mestres, Johann Berthelot, Romain Quidant
Non-invasive and ultra-accurate optical manipulation of nanometer objects has recently gained a growing interest as a powerful enabling tool in nanotechnology and biophysics. In th…
Long distance manipulation of a levitated nanoparticle in high vacuum
Pau Mestres, Johann Berthelot, Marko Spasenović +3
Accurate delivery of small targets in high vacuum is a pivotal task in many branches of science and technology. Beyond the different strategies developed for atoms, proteins, macro…
Realization of nonequilibrium thermodynamic processes using external colored noise
Pau Mestres, Ignacio A. Martinez, Antonio Ortiz-Ambriz +2
We investigate the dynamics of single microparticles immersed in water that are driven out of equilibrium in the presence of an additional external colored noise. As a case study,…
