Laser cooling of a Planck mass object close to the quantum ground state
Leonhard Neuhaus, Remi Metzdorff, Salim Zerkani +13
Quantum mechanics has so far not been tested for mechanical objects at the scale of the Planck mass . We present an experiment where a 1 m…
Nanomechanical strain concentration on a 2D nanobridge within a large suspended bilayer graphene for molecular mass detection
Julien Chaste, Amine Missaoui, Amina Saadani +4
The recent emergence of strain gradient engineering directly affects the nanomechanics, optoelectronics and thermal transport fields in 2D materials. More specifically, large suspe…
High spectral resolution of GaAs/AlAs phononic cavities by subharmonic resonant pump-probe excitation
Camille Lagoin, Bernard Perrin, Paola Atkinson +1
We present here precise measurement of the resonance frequency, lifetime and shape of confined acoustic modes in the tens of GHz regime in GaAs/AlAs superlattice planar and micropi…
Acoustic confinement in superlattice cavities
Daniel Garcia-Sanchez, Samuel Déleglise, Jean-Louis Thomas +3
The large coupling rate between the acoustic and optical fields confined in GaAs/AlAs superlattice cavities makes them appealing systems for cavity optomechanics. We have developed…
Casimir probe based upon metallized high Q SiN nanomembrane resonator
Daniel Garcia-Sanchez, King Yan Fong, Harish Bhaskaran +2
We present the instrumentation and measurement scheme of a new Casimir force probe that bridges Casimir force measurements at microscale and macroscale. A metallized high Q silicon…
Casimir Force and In Situ Surface Potential Measurements on Nanomembranes
Daniel Garcia-Sanchez, King Yan Fong, Harish Bhaskaran +2
We present Casimir force measurements in a sphere-plate configuration that consists of a high quality nanomembrane resonator and a millimeter sized gold coated sphere. The nanomemb…
