Quantum-Dense Metrology

Sebastian Steinlechner, Jöran Bauchrowitz, Melanie Meinders +3

Quantum metrology utilizes entanglement for improving the sensitivity of measurements. Up to now the focus has been on the measurement of just one out of two non-commuting observab…

Quantum Enhancement of the Zero-Area Sagnac Interferometer Topology for Gravitational Wave Detection

Tobias Eberle, Sebastian Steinlechner, Jöran Bauchrowitz +5

Only a few years ago, it was realized that the zero-area Sagnac interferometer topology is able to perform quantum nondemolition measurements of position changes of a mechanical os…

Preparing a mechanical oscillator in non-Gaussian quantum states

Farid Khalili, Stefan Danilishin, Haixing Miao +3

We propose a protocol for coherently transferring non-Gaussian quantum states from optical field to a mechanical oscillator. The open quantum dynamics and continuous-measurement pr…

Entanglement of macroscopic test masses and the Standard Quantum Limit in laser interferometry

Helge Mueller-Ebhardt, Henning Rehbein, Roman Schnabel +2

We show that the generation of entanglement of two heavily macroscopic mirrors with masses of up to several kilograms are feasible with state of the art techniques of high-precisio…

An all-optical trap for a gram-scale mirror

T. Corbitt, Y. Chen, H. Mueller-Ebhardt +7

We report on a stable optical trap suitable for a macroscopic mirror, wherein the dynamics of the mirror are fully dominated by radiation pressure. The technique employs two freque…
