Demonstration of a quantum SWITCH in a Sagnac configuration
Teodor Strömberg, Peter Schiansky, Robert W. Peterson +2
The quantum SWITCH is an example of a process with an indefinite causal structure, and has attracted attention for its ability to outperform causally ordered computations within th…
Harnessing electro-optic correlations in an efficient mechanical converter
A. P. Higginbotham, P. S. Burns, M. D. Urmey +6
An optical network of superconducting quantum bits (qubits) is an appealing platform for quantum communication and distributed quantum computing, but developing a quantum-compatibl…
Reconfigurable re-entrant cavity for wireless coupling to an electro-optomechanical device
Tim Menke, Peter S. Burns, Andrew P. Higginbotham +6
An electro-optomechanical device capable of microwave-to-optics conversion has recently been demonstrated, with the vision of enabling optical networks of superconducting qubits. H…
Optical probing of mechanical loss of a Si_{3}N_{4} membrane below 100 mK
R. Fischer, N. S. Kampel, G. G. T. Assumpção +5
We report on low mechanical loss in a high-stress silicon nitride (Si_{3}N_{4}) membrane at temperatures below 100 mK. We isolate a membrane via a phononic shield formed within a s…
Laser cooling of a micromechanical membrane to the quantum backaction limit
R. W. Peterson, T. P. Purdy, N. S. Kampel +4
The radiation pressure of light can act to damp and cool the vibrational motion of a mechanical resonator. In understanding the quantum limits of this cooling, one must consider th…
Bidirectional and efficient conversion between microwave and optical light
R. W. Andrews, R. W. Peterson, T. P. Purdy +4
Converting low-frequency electrical signals into much higher frequency optical signals has enabled modern communications networks to leverage both the strengths of microfabricated…
Strong Optomechanical Squeezing of Light
T. P. Purdy, P. -L. Yu, R. W. Peterson +2
We create squeezed light by exploiting the quantum nature of the mechanical interaction between laser light and a membrane mechanical resonator embedded in an optical cavity. The r…
Observation of Radiation Pressure Shot Noise on a Macroscopic Object
T. P. Purdy, R. W. Peterson, C. A. Regal
The quantum mechanics of position measurement of a macroscopic object is typically inaccessible because of strong coupling to the environment and classical noise. Here we monitor a…
Cavity optomechanics with Si3N4 membranes at cryogenic temperatures
T. P. Purdy, R. W. Peterson, P. -L. Yu +1
We describe a cryogenic cavity-optomechanical system that combines Si3N4 membranes with a mechanically-rigid Fabry-Perot cavity. The extremely high quality-factor frequency product…
