Together with their fingerprint modes, molecules carry coherent vibrations of all their atoms (phonons). Phonon spectra extend from $\sim$20 to more than $10^{4}\,\mu$m, depending on molecular size. These spectra are discrete but large…
Cavity optomechanics enables active manipulation of mechanical resonators through backaction cooling and amplification. This ability to control mechanical motion with retarded optical forces has recently spurred a race towards realizing a…
A general form of a many-body Hamiltonian is considered, which includes an interacting fermionic sub-system coupled to non-interacting extended fermionic and bosonic systems. We show that the exact dynamics of the extended bosonic system…
We theoretically study a strongly-driven optomechanical system which consists of a passive optical cavity and an active mechanical resonator. When the optomechanical coupling strength is varied, phase transitions, which are similar those…
It was shown [New J. Phys. 17, 103037 (2015)] that large and robust entanglement between two different mechanical resonators could be achieved, either dynamically or in the steady state, in an optomechanical system in which the two…
We study in detail the dynamics of a non-stationary system composed of a Quantum Well confined in an optomechanical cavity. This system is investigated with classical and quantized motion of the cavity movable mirror. In both the cases, the…
Establishing a way to control magnetic dynamics and elementary excitations (magnons) is crucial to fundamental physics and the search for novel phenomena and functions in magnetic solid-state systems. Electromagnetic waves have been…
Molecular optomechanics stems from the description of Raman scattering in the presence of an optical resonator using a cavity optomechanics formalism. We extend the molecular optomechanics formalism to the case of hybrid…
A rate equation formalism is used to determine the effect of electron-phonon coupling on the conductance of a molecule. Interplay between the phonon-induced renormalization of the density of states on the quantum dot and the phonon-induced…
In the usual optomechanical systems, the stability of the systems severely limits those researches of the macroscopic quantum effects. We study an usual cavity optomechanical system where the frequency of the optical mode is shaken…
The phonon-induced dephasing dynamics in optically excited semiconductor quantum dots is studied within the frameworks of the independent Boson model and optimal control. We show that appropriate tailoring of laser pulses allows a complete…
Coherent and squeezed phonon oscillations can be excited in solids impulsively by a single femtosecond pulse whose duration is shorter that a phonon period. By applying the second ultrafast pump pulse these oscillations can be…
We study genetic switches formed from pairs of mutually repressing operons. The switch stability is characterised by a well defined lifetime which grows sub-exponentially with the number of copies of the most-expressed transcription factor,…
Quantum control of phonons has being become a focus of attention for developing quantum technologies. Here, we propose a proposal to realize phonon blockade in a quadratically coupled optomechanical system, where a strong nonlinear…
Measuring the quantum dynamics of a mechanical system, when few phonons are involved, remains a challenge. We show that a superconducting microwave resonator linearly coupled to the mechanical mode constitutes a very powerful probe for this…
We propose an approach to enhance the mechanical effects of single photons in a two-mode optomechanical system. This is achieved by introducing a resonance-frequency modulation to the cavity fields. When the modulation frequency and…
The mechanical properties of light have found widespread use in the manipulation of gas-phase atoms and ions, helping create new states of matter and realize complex quantum interactions. The field of cavity-optomechanics strives to scale…
Phonon modes within pristine crystalline resonators now routinely reach the quantum ground state. Such systems are attractive for quantum information science applications, as advanced fabrication and processing can enable relatively long…
We employ detuning-dependent decay-rate measurements of a quantum dot in a photonic-crystal cavity to study the influence of phonon dephasing in a solid-state quantum-electrodynamics experiment. The experimental data agree with a…
The generation of quantum entanglement between phonons in photoirradiated remote electron-phonon systems is numerically studied. Upon excitation by a visible/ultraviolet laser pulse, the entanglement of electrons is immediately generated…
