A Levitated Random Telegraph Noise Spectrometer
Molly Message, Bianca C. J. Uy, Katie O'Flynn +7
Random Telegraph Noise is a ubiquitous process manifesting across technology and the natural world. It is characterized by random jumps between two distinct states with Poissonian…
Floquet engineering of nonreciprocal light-induced dipolar interactions
Livia Egyed, Murad Abuzarli, Manuel Reisenbauer +3
Tweezer arrays of polarizable objects are a promising platform for assembling quantum matter and building next-generation quantum sensors. Light-induced dipolar interactions have e…
Gyroscopically stabilized quantum spin rotors
Vanessa Wachter, Silvia Viola Kusminskiy, Gabriel Hétet +1
Recent experiments demonstrate all-electric spinning of levitated nanodiamonds with embedded nitrogen-vacancy spins. Here, we argue that such gyroscopically stabilized spin rotors…
Steady-state entanglement of interacting masses in free space through optimal feedback control
Klemens Winkler, Anton V. Zasedatelev, Benjamin A. Stickler +3
We develop a feedback strategy based on optimal quantum feedback control for Gaussian systems to maximise the likelihood of steady-state entanglement detection between two directly…
Quantum ground-state cooling of two librational modes of a nanorotor
Stephan Troyer, Florian Fechtel, Lorenz Hummer +4
Controlling the motion of nanoscale objects at the quantum limit promises new tests of quantum mechanics and advanced sensors. Rotational motion is of particular interest, as it fo…
Inverse Microparticle Design for Enhanced Optical Trapping and Detection Efficiency in All Six Degrees of Freedom
Moosung Lee, Benjamin A. Stickler, Thomas Pertsch +1
Achieving quantum-limited motional control of optically trapped particles beyond the sub-micrometer scale is an outstanding problem in levitated optomechanics. A key obstacle is so…
