Cavity cooling of an optically levitated nanoparticle
Nikolai Kiesel, Florian Blaser, Uros Delic +3
The ability to trap and to manipulate individual atoms is at the heart of current implementations of quantum simulations, quantum computing, and long-distance quantum communication…
Large Quantum Superpositions and Interference of Massive Nanometer-Sized Objects
O. Romero-Isart, A. C. Pflanzer, F. Blaser +4
We propose a method to prepare and verify spatial quantum superpositions of a nanometer-sized object separated by distances of the order of its size. This method provides unprecede…
Self-cooling of a micro-mirror by radiation pressure
S. Gigan, H. R. Boehm, M. Paternostro +7
We demonstrate passive feedback cooling of a mechanical resonator based on radiation pressure forces and assisted by photothermal forces in a high-finesse optical cavity. The reson…
