Quantum Optical Binding of Nanoscale Particles
Henning Rudolph, Uroš Delić, Klaus Hornberger +1
Optical binding refers to the light-induced interaction between two or more objects illuminated by laser fields. The high tunability of the strength, sign, and reciprocity of this…
Spin Read-out of the Motion of Levitated Electrically Rotated Diamonds
Maxime Perdriat, Cosimo C. Rusconi, Tom Delord +4
Recent advancements with trapped nano- and micro-particles have enabled the exploration of motional states on unprecedented scales. Rotational degrees of freedom stand out due to t…
Amplifying a zeptonewton force with a single-ion nonlinear oscillator
Bo Deng, Moritz Göb, Benjamin A. Stickler +3
Nonlinear mechanical resonators display rich and complex dynamics and are important in many areas of fundamental and applied sciences. In this letter, we show that a particle confi…
Full Rotational Control of Levitated Silicon Nanorods
Stefan Kuhn, Alon Kosloff, Benjamin A. Stickler +4
We study a nanofabricated silicon rod levitated in an optical trap. By manipulating the polarization of the light we gain full control over the ro-translational dynamics of the rod…
Spatio-Orientational Decoherence of Nanoparticles
Benjamin A. Stickler, Birthe Papendell, Klaus Hornberger
Motivated by trapping and cooling experiments with non-spherical nanoparticles, we discuss how their combined rotational and translational quantum state is affected by the interact…
Quantum reflection and interference of matter waves from periodically doped surfaces
Benjamin A. Stickler, Uzi Even, Klaus Hornberger
We show that periodically doped, flat surfaces can act as reflective diffraction gratings for atomic and molecular matter waves. The diffraction element is realized by exploiting t…
