Scalable Ion Fluorescence Collection Using a Trap-Integrated Metalens
Hae Lim, Johannes E. Fröch, Christian M. Pluchar +2
A scaled trapped-ion quantum computer will require efficient fluorescence collection across a large area. Here we propose and demonstrate a compact monolithically integrated system…
Imaging-based Quantum Optomechanics
Christian M. Pluchar, Wenhua He, Jack Manley +3
In active imaging protocols, information about an object is encoded into the spatial mode of a scattered photon. Recently the quantum limits of active imaging have been explored wi…
Quantum limited imaging of a nanomechanical resonator with a spatial mode sorter
Morgan Choi, Christian Pluchar, Wenhua He +2
We explore the use of a spatial mode sorter to image a nanomechanical resonator, with the goal of studying the quantum limits of active imaging and extending the toolbox for optome…
Quantum-limited optical lever measurement of a torsion oscillator
Christian M. Pluchar, Aman R. Agrawal, Dalziel J. Wilson
The optical lever is a precision displacement sensor with broad applications. In principle, it can track the motion of a mechanical oscillator with added noise at the Standard Quan…
