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…

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…

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…
