Cold Damping of an Optically Levitated Nanoparticle to micro-Kelvin Temperatures
Felix Tebbenjohanns, Martin Frimmer, Andrei Militaru +2
We implement a cold damping scheme to cool one mode of the center-of-mass motion of an optically levitated nanoparticle in ultrahigh vacuum from room temperature to a record-low te…
Quantized thermal conductance in metallic heterojunctions
Nico Mosso, Alyssa Prasmusinto, Andrea Gemma +3
To develop next-generation electronics and high efficiency energy-harvesting devices, it is crucial to understand how charge and heat are transported at the nanoscale. Metallic ato…
Cavity-Based 3D Cooling of a Levitated Nanoparticle via Coherent Scattering
Dominik Windey, Carlos Gonzalez-Ballestero, Patrick Maurer +3
We experimentally realize cavity cooling of all three translational degrees of motion of a levitated nanoparticle in vacuum. The particle is trapped by a cavity-independent optical…
Quantized optical near-field interactions measured with a superconducting nanowire detector
Karol Luszcz, Eric Bonvin, Lukas Novotny
The quantum nature of optical near-fields is interesting from a theoretical perspective and of importance for practical applications, such as high-resolution imaging, sensing and a…
Light from van der Waals quantum tunneling devices
Markus Parzefall, Áron Szabó, Takashi Taniguchi +3
The understanding of and control over light emission from quantum tunneling has challenged researchers for more than four decades due to the intricate interplay of electrical and o…
Optical potential mapping with a levitated nanoparticle at sub-wavelength distances from a membrane
Rozenn Diehl, Erik Hebestreit, René Reimann +3
The controllable positioning of a vacuum-levitated object near a material surface is of importance for studying short-range forces, such as Casimir forces, interfacial friction for…
GHz Rotation of an Optically Trapped Nanoparticle in Vacuum
René Reimann, Michael Doderer, Erik Hebestreit +5
We report on rotating an optically trapped silica nanoparticle in vacuum by transferring spin angular momentum of light to the particle's mechanical angular momentum. At sufficient…
Defect-Free Carbon Nanotube Coils
Nitzan Shadmi, Anna Kremen, Yiftach Frenkel +11
Carbon nanotubes are promising building blocks for various nanoelectronic components. A highly desirable geometry for such applications is a coil. However, coiled nanotube structur…
Minimizing Residues and Strain in 2D Materials Transferred from PDMS
Achint Jain, Palash Bharadwaj, Sebastian Heeg +4
Integrating layered two-dimensional (2D) materials into 3D heterostructures offers opportunities for novel material functionalities and applications in electronics and photonics. I…
Measuring the Internal Temperature of a Levitated Nanoparticle in High Vacuum
Erik Hebestreit, René Reimann, Martin Frimmer +1
The interaction of an object with its surrounding bath can lead to a coupling between the object's internal degrees of freedom and its center-of-mass motion. This coupling is espec…
