Cooling carbon nanotubes to the phononic ground state with constant electron current
Stefano Zippilli, Giovanna Morigi, Adrian Bachtold
We present a quantum theory of cooling of a mechanical resonator using back-action with constant electron current. The resonator device is based on a doubly clamped nanotube, which…

Entanglement of distant atoms by projective measurement: The role of detection efficiency
Stefano Zippilli, Georgina A. Olivares-Renteria, Giovanna Morigi +3
We assess proposals for entangling two distant atoms by measurement of emitted photons, analyzing how their performance depends on the photon detection efficiency. We consider sche…
