Wavefront shaping enhanced nano-optomechanics down to the quantum precision limit

Alexandros G. Tavernarakis, Rodrigo Gutiérrez-Cuevas, Loïc Rondin +3

We introduce wavefront shaping as a tool for optimizing the sensitivity in nano-optomechanical measurement schemes. We perform multimode output analysis of an optomechanical system…

Mass sensing for the advanced fabrication of nanomechanical resonators

G. Gruber, C. Urgell, A. Tavernarakis +7

We report on a nanomechanical engineering method to monitor matter growth in real time via e-beam electromechanical coupling. This method relies on the exceptional mass sensing cap…

Improving the read-out of the resonance frequency of nanotube mechanical resonators

Jil Schwender, Ioannis Tsioutsios, Alexandros Tavernarakis +4

We report on an electrical detection method of ultrasensitive carbon nanotube mechanical resonators. The noise floor of the detection method is reduced using a RLC resonator and an…

Real-time measurement of nanotube resonator fluctuations in an electron microscope

I. Tsioutsios, A. Tavernarakis, J. Osmond +2

Mechanical resonators based on low-dimensional materials provide a unique platform for exploring a broad range of physical phenomena. The mechanical vibrational states are indeed e…

Atomic monolayer deposition on the surface of nanotube mechanical resonators

Alexandros Tavernarakis, Julien Chaste, Alexander Eichler +4

We studied monolayers of noble gas atoms (Xe, Kr, Ar, and Ne) deposited on individual ultra- clean suspended nanotubes. For this, we recorded the resonance frequency of the mechani…

Back-action amplification and quantum limits in optomechanical measurements

P. Verlot, A. Tavernarakis, T. Briant +2

Optical interferometry is by far the most sensitive displacement measurement technique available, with sensitivities at the 10^-20 m/rootHz level in the large-scale gravitational-w…

Probing optomechanical correlations between two optical beams down to the quantum level

P. Verlot, A. Tavernarakis, T. Briant +2

Quantum effects of radiation pressure are expected to limit the sensitivity of second-generation gravitational-wave interferometers. Though ubiquitous, such effects are so weak tha…
