Measurement of the quantum zero-point motion of a nanomechanical resonator
Amir H. Safavi-Naeini, Jasper Chan, Jeff T. Hill +3
We present optical sideband spectroscopy measurements of a mesoscopic mechanical oscillator cooled near its quantum ground state. The mechanical oscillator, corresponding to a 3.99…

Laser cooling of a nanomechanical oscillator into its quantum ground state
Jasper Chan, T. P. Mayer Alegre, Amir H. Safavi-Naeini +5
A patterned Si nanobeam is formed which supports co-localized acoustic and optical resonances that are coupled via radiation pressure. Starting from a bath temperature of T=20K, th…
