A monolithic segmented 3D ion trap fabricated from fused silica by selective laser-induced etching
Edgar Brucke, Martin Wagener, Moritz Fontboté-Schmidt +10
We present the design, fabrication, and characterization of a monolithic, segmented, three-dimensional linear Paul ion trap for quantum science applications. The trap is fabricated…

Cooling of an optically levitated nanoparticle via measurement-free coherent feedback
Bruno Melo, Daniel Veldhuizen, Gregoire F. M. Tomassi +2
We demonstrate coherent, measurement-free optical feedback control of a levitated nanoparticle, achieving phonon occupations down to a few hundred phonons. Unlike measurement-based…

Accelerated State Expansion of a Nanoparticle in a Dark Inverted Potential
Gregoire F. M. Tomassi, Daniel Veldhuizen, Bruno Melo +5
While the wave packet of a massive particle grows linearly under free dynamics, it grows exponentially in an inverted harmonic potential, offering a pathway to rapidly increase qua…
