The characteristic tip_substrate capacitance is crucial for understanding the localized electrical properties in atomic force microscopy (AFM). Since it is highly dependent on tip geometrical features, estimation of the tip_substrate…

The Phase-Field Method (PFM) is employed to simulate two-phase flows with the fully-coupled Cahn-Hilliard-Navier-Stokes (CHNS) equations governing the temporal evolution. The methodology minimizes the total energy functional, accounting for…

The ability of matter to be superposed at two different locations while being intrinsically connected by a quantum phase is among the most counterintuitive predictions of quantum physics. While such superpositions have been created for a…

We present and discuss a master equation blueprint for a generic class of quantum measurement feedback based models of friction. A desired velocity-dependent friction force is realized on average by random repeated applications of unsharp…

Levitated mechanical systems are promising candidates for quantum gravimetry, as gravity couples directly to their center-of-mass motion, enabling the large mass of a mesoscopic particle to serve as a sensing resource. In this paper, we…

Because of the broken time-translation symmetry, in periodically driven vibrational systems fluctuations of different vibration components have different intensities. Fluctuations of one of the components are often squeezed, whereas…

Molecular dynamics simulations have been performed to understand true atomic resolution, which has been observed on the Si(111)-7$\times$7 surface by dynamic force microscopy in ultra high vacuum(UHV). Stable atomic-scale contrast is…

The origin of friction force is a very old problem in physics, which goes back to Leonardo da Vinci or even older times. Extremely important from a practical point of view, but with no satisfactory explanation yet. Many models have been…

Modification of electromagnetic quantum fluctuations in the form of quadrature-squeezing is a central quantum resource, which can be generated from nonlinear optical processes. Such a process is facilitated by coherent two-photon excitation…

We explore dynamic structural superlubricity for the case of a relatively large contact area, where the friction force is proportional to the area (exceeding $\sim 100\,nm^2$) experimentally, numerically, and theoretically. We use a setup…

The interaction of two quantized fields and three-level quantum system in a lambda-type configuration is investigated in the presence of cross-Kerr nonlinearity. We consider three models of coupling for the atom-photon interaction. First,…

The interaction strength of an oscillator to a qubit grows with the oscillator's vacuum field fluctuations. The well known degenerate parametric oscillator has revived interest in the regime of strongly detuned squeezing, where its…

Nonlinear forces allow motion of a mechanical oscillator to be squeezed below the zero-point motion. Of existing methods, mechanical parametric amplification is relatively accessible, but previously thought to be limited to 3dB of squeezing…

We investigate phase transitions in the nonequilibrium dynamics of power-law interacting spin-1/2 bilayer XXZ models, which have recently been shown to allow generation of entanglement in the form of two-mode squeezing. We find a transition…

As a result of the quantum, wave-like nature of the physical world, a harmonic oscillator can never be completely at rest. Even in the quantum ground state, its position will always have fluctuations, called the zero-point motion. Although…

We study the stationary and nonstationary measurement of a classical force driving a mechanical oscillator coupled to an electromagnetic cavity under two-tone driving. For this purpose, we develop a theoretical framework based on the…

Time-dependent density functional theory, proposed recently in the context of atomic diffusion and non-equilibrium processes in solids, is tested against Monte Carlo simulation. In order to assess the basic approximation of that theory, the…

We report about the realization of a quantum device for force sensing at micrometric scale. We trap an ultracold $^{88}$Sr atomic cloud with a 1-D optical lattice, then we place the atomic sample close to a test surface using the same…

We report on a microscopic theory of quantum friction. Our approach investigates the interplay between the dispersive response and the relative center-of-mass motion of two ground-state atoms. This coupling yields a quantum force, which can…

We study the dynamics of the quantum phase distribution associated with the reduced density matrix of a system for a number of situations of practical importance, as the system evolves under the influence of its environment, interacting via…
