Mode-selective acousto-electric modulation of phonons in a silicon photonic platform
Ruoyu Yuan, Yishu Zhou, Matthew J. Storey +9
Acousto-electric (AE) interactions enable electrical control of acoustic propagation through piezoelectric media. Bringing AE control onto integrated photonic platforms provides a…
Nonequilibrium thermodynamics of the acoustoelectric quantum vacuum
Ryan O. Behunin, Andrew Shepherd, Francesco Intravaia +1
The quantum vacuum can assume thermal properties as a consequence of system kinematics, highlighting the nuance of our definition of particles in quantum field theory. Here, we exp…
Noise factor of Brillouin amplifiers
John H. Dallyn, Nils T. Otterstrom, Matt Eichenfield +2
Stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS), an optical nonlinearity arising from photon-phonon interactions, has formed the basis for a large class of optical signal processing devices,…
Noise and dynamics in acoustoelectric waveguides
Ryan O. Behunin, Andrew Shepherd, Ruoyu Yuan +5
We present a quantum field theoretic formulation of acoustoelectric interactions in waveguide-like systems of arbitrary cross-section. Building on an open quantum systems approach,…
Phonon decoherence produced by two-level tunneling states
Ryan O. Behunin, Taylor Ray, Dylan Chapman +3
Phonon modes within pristine crystalline resonators now routinely reach the quantum ground state. Such systems are attractive for quantum information science applications, as advan…
Lifetime-limited Gigahertz-frequency Mechanical Oscillators with Millisecond Coherence Times
Yizhi Luo, Hilel Hagai Diamandi, Hanshi Li +9
High-frequency mechanical oscillators with long coherence times are essential to realizing a variety of high-fidelity quantum sensors, transducers, and memories. However, the unpre…
