Cooling a nanomechanical resonator with quantum back-action
A. Naik, O. Buu, M. D. LaHaye +4
Quantum mechanics demands that the act of measurement must affect the measured object. When a linear amplifier is used to continuously monitor the position of an object, the Heisen…
Squeezing of a nanomechanical resonator by quantum nondemolition measurement and feedback
Rusko Ruskov, Keith Schwab, Alexander N. Korotkov
We analyze squeezing of the nanoresonator state produced by periodic measurement of position by a quantum point contact or a single-electron transistor. The mechanism of squeezing…
Quantum Nondemolition Squeezing of a Nanomechanical Resonator
Rusko Ruskov, Keith Schwab, Alexander N. Korotkov
We show that the nanoresonator position can be squeezed significantly below the ground state level by measuring the nanoresonator with a quantum point contact or a single-electron…
Quantum Measurement of a Coupled Nanomechanical Resonator -- Cooper-Pair Box System
Elinor K. Irish, K. Schwab
We show two effects as a result of considering the second-order correction to the spectrum of a nanomechanical resonator electrostatically coupled to a Cooper-pair box. The spectru…
