Cavity nano-optomechanics with suspended subwavelength-sized nanowires
Antoine Reigue, Francesco Fogliano, Philip Heringlake +5
In the field of cavity nano-optomechanics, the nanoresonator-in-the-middle approach consists in inserting a sub-wavelength sized deformable resonator, here a nanowire, in the small…
Cavity nano-optomechanics in the ultrastrong coupling regime with ultrasensitive force sensors
Francesco Fogliano, Benjamin Besga, Antoine Reigue +6
In a canonical optomechanical system, mechanical vibrations are dynamically encoded on an optical probe field which reciprocally exerts a backaction force. Due to the weak single p…
Observation of cooperatively enhanced atomic dipole forces from NV centers in optically trapped nanodiamonds
M. L. Juan, C. Bradac, B. Besga +3
Since the early work by Ashkin in 1970, optical trapping has become one of the most powerful tools for manipulating small particles, such as micron sized beads or single atoms. The…
Probing the state of a mechanical oscillator with an ultra-strongly coupled quantum emitter
Cyril Elouard, Benjamin Besga, Alexia Auffèves
We study the dynamics of a mechanical resonator parametrically coupled to a driven dissipative quantum emitter in the ultra-strong coupling regime. We show that this regime is full…
Nano-optomechanical measurement in the photon counting regime
Laure Mercier de Lépinay, Benjamin Pigeau, Sven Rohr +6
Optically measuring in the photon counting regime is a recurrent challenge in modern physics and a guarantee to develop weakly invasive probes. Here we investigate this idea on a h…
Spontaneous emission spectrum of a two-level atom in a very high Q cavity
Alexia Auffèves, Benjamin Besga, Jean-Michel Gérard +1
In this paper we consider an initially excited two-level system coupled to a monomode cavity, and compute exact expressions for the spectra spontaneously emitted by each system in…
