Quantum jumps of sound
Takuma Makihara, Erik Szakiel, Matthew P. Maksymowych +7
Quantum mechanics predicts that a vibrating object's energy comes in discrete packets, yet no measurement of its position reveals this discreteness. Resolving individual energy lev…
Millisecond phonon lifetimes in piezoelectric nanomechanical resonators
Oliver A. Hitchcock, Matthew P. Maksymowych, Kaveh Pezeshki +5
Piezoelectric nanomechanical resonators operating at gigahertz frequencies are a promising platform for quantum information processing and precision sensing, but phonon lifetimes h…
A two-dimensional piezo-optomechanical transducer
Tian Xie, Nelson Ooi, Linus Woodard +7
Optical quantum networks provide a natural route for connecting distant superconducting quantum processors, enabling distributed quantum computation, sensing, and communication. Pi…
Correlated Dephasing in a Piezoelectrically Transduced Silicon Phononic Waveguide
Oliver A. Hitchcock, Felix M. Mayor, Wentao Jiang +3
Nanomechanical waveguides offer a multitude of applications in quantum and classical technologies. Here, we design, fabricate, and characterize a compact silicon single-mode phonon…
Intrinsic Phononic Dressed States in a Nanomechanical System
M. Yuksel, M. P. Maksymowych, O. A. Hitchcock +5
Nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS) provide a platform for probing the quantum nature of mechanical motion in mesoscopic systems. This nature manifests most profoundly when the de…
Frequency Fluctuations in Nanomechanical Resonators due to Quantum Defects
M. P. Maksymowych, M. Yuksel, O. A. Hitchcock +5
Nanomechanical resonators promise diverse applications ranging from mass spectrometry to quantum information processing, requiring long phonon lifetimes and frequency stability. Al…
