Optical cavity cooling of mechanical resonators has recently become a research frontier. The cooling has been realized with a metal-coated silicon microlever via photo-thermal force and subsequently with dielectric objects via radiation…

In this paper we describe a scheme for state transfer between a trapped atomic Bose condensate and an optomechanical end-mirror mediated by a cavity field. Coupling between the mirror and the cold gas arises from the fact that the cavity…

Optomechanics is a prime example of light matter interaction, where photons directly couple to phonons, allowing to precisely control and measure the state of a mechanical object. This makes it a very appealing platform for testing…

In this paper, we study theoretically a hybrid optomechanical system consisting of a degenerate optical parametric amplifier inside a driven optical cavity with a moving end mirror which is modeled as a stiffening Duffing-like anharmonic…

We propose a method to cool a thermal photonic state in a cavity by passing electrons through it. Electrons are coherently split into two paths, with one path traversing the cavity, becoming entangled with its photonic state. A sequence of…

We perform a quantum mechanical analysis of the pendular cavity, using the positive-P representation, showing that the quantum state of the moving mirror, a macroscopic object, has noticeable effects on the dynamics. This system has…

We report a spin-orbit coupling induced back-action cooling in an optomechanical system, composed of a spin-orbit coupled Bose-Einstein condensate trapped in an optical cavity with one movable end mirror, by suppressing heating effects of…

Proposing an optomechanical cavity modulated periodically, we study the modulation synchronization of mechanical modes of the mirrors. A periodic modulation is applied to one of the mirrors, where the second mirror has the capability of…

We theoretically investigate a quadratic optomechanical system comprising a single-mode optical cavity linearly coupled to one mechanical resonator and quadratically coupled to a second resonator. By tuning the cavity detuning and…

The ground state cooling of a mechanical oscillator in an optomechanical cavity containing an ensemble of identical two-level ground-state atoms is studied in the highly unresolved-sideband regime. The system exhibits…

Optomechanical cooling of multiple degenerate mechanical modes is prevented by the mechanical dark mode due to destructive interference. Here we report the first experimental demonstration of simultaneous cooling of two near-degenerate…

We introduce a finite-time protocol that thermalizes a quantum harmonic oscillator, initially in its ground state, without requiring a macroscopic bath. The method uses a second oscillator as an effective environment and implements sudden…

We present a scheme for ground-state cooling of a mechanical resonator by simultaneously coupling it to a superconducting qubit and a cavity field. The Hamiltonian describing the hybrid system dynamics is systematically derived. The cooling…

Trapped, laser-cooled ions produce intense fluorescence. Detecting this fluorescence enables efficient measurement of quantum state of qubits based on trapped atoms. It is desirable to collect a large fraction of the photons to make the…

Cooling the centre-of-mass motion is an important tool for levitated optomechanical systems, but it is often not clear which method can practically reach lower temperatures for a particular experiment. We directly compare the parametric and…

The present paper illustrates the realization of an atom-optomechanical system where an atomic ensemble is confined in a ring optomechanical cavity consisting of a fixed mirror and two movable ones. An analysis of the dynamics and the…

We propose a domino-cooling method to realize simultaneous ground-state cooling of a coupled mechanical-resonator chain through an optomechanical cavity working in the unresolved-sideband regime. This domino-effect cooling is realized by…

Levitated diamond nanocrystals with nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centres in high vacuum have been proposed as a unique system for experiments in fundamental quantum mechanics, including the generation of large quantum superposition states and…

We demonstrate the possibility of three-dimensional cooling of neutral atoms by illuminating them with two counterpropagating laser beams of mutually orthogonal linear polarization, where one of the lasers is a speckle field, i.e. a highly…

We report the confinement of an optomechanical micro-oscillator in a squeezed thermal state, obtained by parametric modulation of the optical spring. We propose and implement an experimental scheme based on parametric feedback control of…
