Self-cooling of a movable mirror to the ground state using radiation pressure
Aurelien Dantan, Claudiu Genes, David Vitali +1
We show that one can cool a micro-mechanical oscillator to its quantum ground state using radiation pressure in an appropriately detuned cavity (self-cooling). From a simple theory…
Radiation-pressure cooling and optomechanical instability of a micro-mirror
O. Arcizet, P. -F. Cohadon, T. Briant +2
Recent experimental progress in table-top experiments or gravitational-wave interferometers has enlightened the unique displacement sensitivity offered by optical interferometry. A…
High-sensitivity optical monitoring of a micro-mechanical resonator with a quantum-limited optomechanical sensor
O. Arcizet, P. -F. Cohadon, T. Briant +7
We experimentally demonstrate the high-sensitivity optical monitoring of a micro-mechanical resonator and its cooling by active control. Coating a low-loss mirror upon the resonato…
Spin-Squeezing and Light Entanglement in Coherent Population Trapping
Aurelien Dantan, Jean Cviklinski, Elisabeth Giacobino +1
We show that high squeezing and entanglement can be generated at the output of a cavity containing atoms interacting with two fields in a Coherent Population Trapping situation, on…
Beating quantum limits in optomechanical sensor by cavity detuning
Olivier Arcizet, Tristan Briant, Antoine Heidmann +1
We study the quantum limits in an optomechanical sensor based on a detuned high-finesse cavity with a movable mirror. We show that the radiation pressure exerted on the mirror by t…
Dynamics of a pulsed continuous variable quantum memory
Aurelien Dantan, Jean Cviklinski, Michel Pinard +1
We study the transfer dynamics of non-classical fluctuations of light to the ground-state collective spin components of an atomic ensemble during a pulsed quantum memory sequence,…
