State Expansion of a Levitated Nanoparticle in a Dark Harmonic Potential
Eric Bonvin, Louisiane Devaud, Massimiliano Rossi +7
Levitated nanoparticles in vacuum are prime candidates for generating macroscopic quantum superposition states of massive objects. Most protocols for preparing these states necessi…
Hybrid Paul-optical trap with large optical access for levitated optomechanics
Eric Bonvin, Louisiane Devaud, Massimiliano Rossi +7
We present a hybrid trapping platform that allows us to levitate a charged nanoparticle in high vacuum using either optical fields, radio-frequency fields, or a combination thereof…
Ultra-high quality factor of a levitated nanomechanical oscillator
Lorenzo Dania, Dmitry S. Bykov, Florian Goschin +3
A levitated nanomechanical oscillator under ultra-high vacuum (UHV) is highly isolated from its environment. It has been predicted that this isolation leads to very low mechanical…
