Thermal Noise Measurement Below the Standard Quantum Limit
Ronald Pagano, Scott Aronson, Torrey Cullen +2
We present a method characterizing thermal noise in an optical cavity independent from quantum noise despite the thermal noise falling below the quantum noise limit. Using this met…

Conditional Motional Squeezing of an Optomechanical Oscillator Approaching the Quantum Regime
Benjamin B. Lane, Junxin Chen, Ronald E. Pagano +5
Squeezed mechanical states are a highly coveted resource for quantum-enhanced sensing and serve as a compelling platform for probing the interplay between gravity and quantum mecha…
