Trapping of nanofabricated SiO high-aspect-ratio discs in an optical lattice

Shelby Klomp, Shafaq Gulzar Elahi, Scott Grudichak +13

We describe the nanofabrication and loading of lithographically patterned, high aspect ratio m diameter silicon dioxide discs with thickness of nm into an optical sta…

Fiber-based scanning levitated nanoparticle force sensor near a metalized membrane

Andrew M. Dana, Samuel J. Borden, Nia Burrell +10

We describe a fiber-based dual-beam trap for dielectric nanospheres with the ability to transfer the trapped particles into a retro-reflective standing-wave trap within micron-rang…

Localized efficient in-vacuum loading of 0.1-10 m spherical and plate-like particles into optical traps using a pulled glass capillary

Alexey Grinin, Andrew Dana, Mark Nguyen +8

We demonstrate a compact piezoelectric-driven micropipette launcher for localized in-vacuum delivery of nano- and microparticles into optical traps. The launcher has been integrate…

Gravitational wave signal and noise response of an optically levitated sensor in a Fabry-Pérot cavity

Andrew Laeuger, Shafaq Gulzar Elahi, Shelby Klomp +8

Optically levitated sensors inside a Fabry-Pérot cavity have been proposed for high-frequency gravitational-wave (GW) detection, though their configuration for gravitational wave s…

An Optomechanical Coin Flip: Wavelength-Modulated, Erbium-Powered Rotations in a Levitated System

George Winstone, Maddox Wroblewski, Lars Forberger +9

Optical levitation of nano-scale systems offers a pathway to highly sensitive rotation measurements, which are critical for advancing gyroscopic technologies. While prior studies h…

Magnetic levitation and spatial superposition of a nanodiamond with a current-carrying chip

Qian Xiang, Shafaq Gulzar Elahi, Andrew Geraci +2

We propose a current-carrying-chip scheme for generating spatial quantum superpositions using a levitating nanodiamond with a built-in nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centre defect. Our setu…
