Theoretical framework for enhancing or enabling cooling of a mechanical resonator via the anti-Stokes or Stokes interaction and zero-photon detection
Jack Clarke, Evan A. Cryer-Jenkins, Arjun Gupta +11
We develop a theoretical framework to describe how zero-photon detection may be utilized to enhance laser cooling via the anti-Stokes interaction and, somewhat surprisingly, enable…

Enhanced Laser Cooling of a Mechanical Resonator via Zero-Photon Detection
Evan A. Cryer-Jenkins, Kyle D. Major, Jack Clarke +11
Throughout quantum science and technology, measurement is used as a powerful resource for nonlinear operations and quantum state engineering. In particular, single-photon detection…

Single-Phonon Addition and Subtraction to a Mechanical Thermal State
Georg Enzian, John J. Price, Lars Freisem +5
Adding or subtracting a single quantum of excitation to a thermal state of a bosonic system has the counter-intuitive effect of approximately doubling its mean occupation. We perfo…
