Cooling phonons with phonons: acoustic reservoir-engineering with silicon-vacancy centers in diamond
K. V. Kepesidis, M. -A. Lemonde, A. Norambuena +2
We study a setup where a single negatively-charged silicon-vacancy center in diamond is magnetically coupled to a low-frequency mechanical bending mode and via strain to the high-f…
Phonon Cooling and Lasing with Nitrogen-Vacancy Centers in Diamond
K. V. Kepesidis, S. D. Bennett, S. Portolan +2
We investigate the strain-induced coupling between a nitrogen-vacancy impurity and a resonant vibrational mode of a diamond nanoresonator. We show that under near-resonant laser ex…
Superconducting Circuits for Quantum Simulation of Dynamical Gauge Fields
D. Marcos, P. Rabl, E. Rico +1
We describe a superconducting-circuit lattice design for the implementation and simulation of dynamical lattice gauge theories. We illustrate our proposal by analyzing a one-dimens…
Generation of hyper-entangled photon pairs in coupled microcavities
S. Portolan, L. Einkemmer, Z. Vörös +2
We propose and theoretically analyze a new scheme for generating hyper-entangled photon pairs in a system of polaritons in coupled planar microcavities. Starting from a microscopic…
Phonon-induced spin-spin interactions in diamond nanostructures: application to spin squeezing
S. D. Bennett, N. Y. Yao, J. Otterbach +3
We propose and analyze a novel mechanism for long-range spin-spin interactions in diamond nanostructures. The interactions between electronic spins, associated with nitrogen-vacanc…
Measuring mechanical motion with a single spin
S. D. Bennett, S. Kolkowitz, Q. P. Unterreithmeier +4
We study theoretically the measurement of a mechanical oscillator using a single two level system as a detector. In a recent experiment, we used a single electronic spin associated…
Photon condensation in circuit QED by engineered dissipation
D. Marcos, A. Tomadin, S. Diehl +1
We study photon condensation phenomena in a driven and dissipative array of superconducting microwave resonators. Specifically, we show that by using an appropriately designed coup…
Cooling of mechanical motion with a two level system: the high temperature regime
P. Rabl
We analyze cooling of a nano-mechanical resonator coupled to a dissipative solid state two level system focusing on the regime of high initial temperatures. We derive an effective…
Generation of Squeezed States of Nanomechanical Resonators by Reservoir Engineering
P. Rabl, A. Shnirman, P. Zoller
An experimental demonstration of a non-classical state of a nanomechanical resonator is still an outstanding task. In this paper we show how the resonator can be cooled and driven…
