Thermometry of an optically levitated nanodiamond
François Rivière, Timothée de Guillebon, Léo Maumet +4
Using the spin properties of nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in levitated diamond, we characterize the absorption of single nanodiamonds. We first calibrate the thermometry response…
Spin-Controlled Quantum Interference of Levitated Nanorotors
Cosimo C. Rusconi, Maxime Perdriat, Gabriel Hétet +2
We describe how to prepare an electrically levitated nanodiamond in a superposition of orientations via microwave driving of a single embedded nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center. Suitabl…
Spin-mechanics with nitrogen-vacancy centers and trapped particles
Maxime Perdriat, Clément Pellet-Mary, Paul Huillery +2
Controlling the motion of macroscopic oscillators in the quantum regime has been the subject of intense research in recent decades. In this direction, opto-mechanical systems, wher…
Magnetic-Torque Enhanced by Tunable Dipolar interactions
C. Pellet-Mary, P. Huillery, M. Perdriat +1
We use tunable dipolar-interactions between the spins of nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond to rotate a diamond crystal. Specifically, we employ cross-relaxation between the…
Angle Locking of a Levitating Diamond using Spin-Diamagnetism
M. Perdriat, P. Huillery, C. Pellet-Mary +1
The negatively charged nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center in nano- or micro- diamonds has emerged as a promising magnetic field sensor, as a candidate for hyper-polarizing paramagnetic s…
Coherent Microwave Control of a Nuclear Spin Ensemble at Room Temperature
P. Huillery, J. Leibold, T. Delord +4
We use nominally forbidden electron-nuclear spin transitions in nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond to demonstrate coherent manipulation of a nuclear spin ensemble using micro…
Spin-Cooling of the Motion of a Trapped Diamond
T. Delord, P. Huillery, L. Nicolas +1
Observing and controlling macroscopic quantum systems has long been a driving force in research on quantum physics. In this endeavor, strong coupling between individual quantum sys…
Spin-mechanics with levitating ferromagnetic particles
P. Huillery, T. Delord, L. Nicolas +3
We propose and demonstrate first steps towards schemes where the librational mode of levitating ferromagnets is strongly coupled to the electronic spin of Nitrogen-Vacancy (NV) cen…
Diamond nano-pyramids with narrow linewidth SiV centers for quantum technologies
L. Nicolas, T. Delord, P. Huillery +2
Color centers in diamond are versatile solid state atomic-like systems suitable for quantum technological applications. In particular, the negatively charged silicon vacancy center…
Quantum optical memory protocols in atomic ensembles
Thierry Chanelière, Gabriel Hétet, Nicolas Sangouard
We review a series of quantum memory protocols designed to store the quantum information carried by light into atomic ensembles. In particular, we show how a simple semiclassical f…
Stimulated Raman Adiabatic control of a nuclear spin in diamond
Raul Coto, Vincent Jacques, Gabriel Hétet +1
Coherent manipulation of nuclear spins is a highly desirable tool for both quantum metrology and quantum computation. However, most of the current techniques to control nuclear spi…
Spin Wave Diffraction Control and Read-out with a Quantum Memory for Light
Gabriel Hétet, David Guéry-Odelin
A scheme for control and read-out of diffracted spins waves to propagating light fields is presented. Diffraction is obtained via sinusoidally varying lights shifts and ideal one-t…
Faraday rotation of a tightly focussed beam from a single trapped atom
G. Hétet, L. Slodička, N. Röck +1
Faraday rotation of a laser field induced by a single atom is demonstrated by tightly focussing a linearly polarized laser beam onto a laser-cooled ion held in a harmonic Paul trap…
Quantum memory with a single two-level atom in a half cavity
Yimin Wang, Jiří Minář, Gabriel Hétet +1
We propose a setup for quantum memory based on a single two-level atom in a half cavity with a moving mirror. We show that various temporal shapes of incident photon can be efficie…
QED with a spherical mirror
G. Hétet, L. Slodicka, A. Glaetzle +2
We investigate the Quantum-Electro-Dynamic properties of an atomic electron close to the focus of a spherical mirror. We first show that the spontaneous emission and excited state…
