Quantum Enhanced Microrheology of a Living Cell
Michael A. Taylor, Jiri Janousek, Vincent Daria +4
We demonstrate the first biological measurement with precision surpassing the quantum noise limit. Lipid particles within a living yeast cell are tracked with sub-shot noise sensit…
Biological measurement beyond the quantum limit
Michael A. Taylor, Jiri Janousek, Vincent Daria +4
Quantum noise places a fundamental limit on the per photon sensitivity attainable in optical measurements. This limit is of particular importance in biological measurements, where…
Feedback Enhanced Sensitivity in Optomechanics: Surpassing the Parametric Instability Barrier
Glen I. Harris, Ulrik L. Andersen, Joachim Knittel +1
The intracavity power, and hence sensitivity, of optomechanical sensors is commonly limited by parametric instability. Here we characterize the parametric instability induced sensi…
Cavity opto-electromechanical system combining strong electrical actuation with ultrasensitive transduction
Terry G. McRae, Kwan H. Lee, Glen I. Harris +2
A cavity opto-electromechanical system is reported which combines the ultrasensitive transduction of cavity optomechanical systems with the electrical actuation of nanoelectromecha…
Cooling and control of a cavity opto-electromechanical system
Kwan H. Lee, Terry G. McRae, Glen I. Harris +2
We implement a cavity opto-electromechanical system integrating electrical actuation capabilities of nanoelectromechanical devices with ultrasensitive mechanical transduction achie…
