Torque-free manipulation of nanoparticle rotations via embedded spins
Yue Ma, M. S. Kim, Benjamin A. Stickler
Spin angular momentum and mechanical rotation both contribute to the total angular momentum of rigid bodies, leading to spin-rotational coupling via the Einstein-de Haas and Barnet…
Interferometric control of nanorotor alignment
Birthe Schrinski, Benjamin A. Stickler, Klaus Hornberger
The intrinsically non-linear rotation dynamics of rigid bodies offer unprecedented ways to exploit their quantum motion. In this Letter we devise a rotational analog of Mach-Zehnde…
Talbot self-imaging and two-photon interference in ring-core fibers
Matias Eriksson, Benjamin A. Stickler, Lea Kopf +5
Wave propagation on the surface of cylinders exhibits interferometric self imaging, much like the Talbot effect in the near-field diffraction at periodic gratings. We report the ex…
Electric trapping and circuit cooling of charged nanorotors
Lukas Martinetz, Klaus Hornberger, Benjamin A. Stickler
The motion of charged particles can be interfaced with electric circuitry via the current induced in nearby pick-up electrodes. Here we show how the rotational and translational dy…
Theory of nanoparticle cooling by elliptic coherent scattering
Henning Rudolph, Jonas Schäfer, Benjamin A. Stickler +1
Coherent scattering of an elliptically polarised tweezer into a cavity mode provides a promising platform for cooling levitated nanoparticles into their combined rotational and tra…
Quantum rotations of nanoparticles
Benjamin A. Stickler, Klaus Hornberger, M. S. Kim
Rotations of microscale rigid bodies exhibit pronounced quantum phenomena that do not exist for their center-of-mass motion. By levitating nanoparticles in ultra-high vacuum, resea…
