Desorption-induced decoherence of nanoparticle motion
Jonas Schäfer, Benjamin A. Stickler, Klaus Hornberger
We derive the quantum master equation predicting how the translational and rotational dynamics of a nanoparticle is affected by the emission of surface adsorbates. This is motivate…

Theory of nanoparticle cooling by elliptic coherent scattering
Henning Rudolph, Jonas Schäfer, Benjamin A. Stickler +1
Coherent scattering of an elliptically polarised tweezer into a cavity mode provides a promising platform for cooling levitated nanoparticles into their combined rotational and tra…
