Breaking the time-reversal symmetry of light is of great importance for fundamental physics and has attracted increasing interest in the study of non-reciprocal photonic devices. Here, we experimentally demonstrate a chiral cavity QED…
We propose a procedure for the significant enhancement of the strong coupling rate between photons in an optical cavity and a single quantum emitter, such as an atom, quantum dot or trapped ion. We show that specially designed,…
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 report on the realization of an optical microcavity consisting in the plane-plane arrangement of two suspended resonant mirrors possessing spectrally overlapping high-quality factor internal resonances. We first investigate its generic…
Recent technological advancements have allowed to implement in solid-state cavity-based devices phenomena of quantum nature such as vacuum Rabi splitting, controllable single photon emission and quantum entanglement. For a sufficiently…
We present a general framework for cavity quantum electrodynamics with strongly frequency-dependent mirrors. The method is applicable to a variety of reflectors exhibiting sharp internal resonances as can be realized, for example, with…
Strong coupling between quantum emitters and optical cavities is essential for quantum information processing, high-purity single-photon sources, and nonlinear quantum devices. Achieving this regime at room temperature in a compact,…
We demonstrate a micro-Fabry-P\'erot cavity array through laser etching of high-surface-quality mirrors onto a single fused silica substrate. A cavity finesse of $4750\pm 200$ was achieved with a simple array design with $500~\mu m$ cavity…
Ponderomotive squeezing of light, where a mechanical oscillator creates quantum correlations between the phase and amplitude of the interacting light field, is a canonical signature of the quantum regime of optomechanics. At room…
We review recent progress at the Centre for Cold Matter in developing atom chips. An important advantage of miniaturizing atom traps on a chip is the possibility of obtaining very tight trapping structures with the capability of…

The introduction of an optical resonator can enable efficient and precise interaction between a photon and a solid-state emitter. It facilitates the study of strong light-matter interaction, polaritonic physics and presents a powerful…
We experimentally show an electro-optic tunable Fabry-Perot cavity on thin-film lithium niobate (TFLN). Instead of tuning the cavity phase and thus resonant frequency, we demonstrate modulation of the FP cavity by tuning the cavity mirrors…
We propose a marginally stable optical resonator suitable for atom interferometry. The resonator geometry is based on two flat mirrors at the focal planes of a lens that produces the large beam waist required to coherently manipulate cold…

The coupling of individual atoms to a high-finesse optical cavity is precisely controlled and adjusted using a standing-wave dipole-force trap, a challenge for strong atom-cavity coupling. Ultracold Rubidium atoms are first loaded into…
