Explanation of the Observed Energy Exchange through the vacuum in Optomechanics
Vincenzo Macrì, Franco Nori, Alessandro Ferreri
In cavity optomechanics, the standard large-detuning regime is commonly described by retaining only the radiation-pressure interaction, while higher-order mirror--field interaction…
Bilateral photon emission from a vibrating mirror and multiphoton entanglement generation
Alberto Mercurio, Enrico Russo, Fabio Mauceri +4
Entanglement plays a crucial role in the development of quantum-enabled devices. One significant objective is the deterministic creation and distribution of entangled states, achie…
Phonon-photon conversion as mechanism for cooling and coherence transfer
Alessandro Ferreri, David Edward Bruschi, Frank K. Wilhelm +2
The dynamical Casimir effect is the physical phenomenon where the mechanical energy of a movable wall of a cavity confining a quantum field can be converted into quanta of the fiel…
Quantum field heat engine powered by phonon-photon interactions
Alessandro Ferreri, Vincenzo Macrì, Frank K. Wilhelm +2
We present a quantum heat engine based on a cavity with two oscillating mirrors that confine a quantum field as the working substance. The engine performs an Otto cycle during whic…
Spontaneous Scattering of Raman Photons from Cavity-QED Systems in the Ultrastrong Coupling Regime
Vincenzo Macrì, Alberto Mercurio, Franco Nori +2
We show that spontaneous Raman scattering of incident radiation can be observed in cavity-QED systems without external enhancement or coupling to any vibrational degree of freedom.…
Pure Dephasing of Light-Matter Systems in the Ultrastrong and Deep-Strong Coupling Regimes
Alberto Mercurio, Shilan Abo, Fabio Mauceri +5
Pure dephasing originates from the non-dissipative information exchange between quantum systems and environments, and plays a key-role in both spectroscopy and quantum information…
