The $1s^2->1s2p(^1P)$ excitation in confined and compressed helium atoms in either the bulk material or encapsulated in a bubble is shifted to energies higher than that in the free atom. For bulk helium, the energy shifts predicted from…
Laser-assisted electron scattering (LAES), a light-matter interaction process that facilitates energy transfer between strong light fields and free electrons, has so far been observed only in gas phase. Here we report on the observation of…
The electron bubble in superfluid helium has two degrees of freedom that may offer exceptionally low dissipation: the electron's spin and the bubble's motion. If these degrees of freedom can be read out and controlled with sufficient…
We investigate the coupling between Rydberg states of electrons trapped on a liquid Helium surface and Landau levels induced by a perpendicular magnetic field. We show that this realises a prototype quantum system equivalent to an atom in a…
We propose an approach to entangle spins of electrons floating on liquid helium by coherently manipulating their spin-orbit interactions. The configuration consists of single electrons, confined individually on liquid helium by the…
We report transport measurements of electrons on helium in a microchannel device where the channels are 200 nm deep and 3 $\mu$m wide. The channels are fabricated above amorphous metallic Ta$_{40}$W$_{40}$Si$_{20}$, which has surface…
Electrons trapped on solid neon surfaces serve as low-noise charge qubits with long coherence times and high operational fidelities. Such charge qubits offer full electrical control and compact device footprints, convenient for scaling up…
The mobility of surface electrons localized over helium films underlying solid substrates has been evaluated by solving the Boltzmann equation in the time relaxation approximation and the force balance equation in which an effective…
Generic interacting many-body quantum systems are believed to behave as classical fluids on long time and length scales. Due to rapid progress in growing exceptionally pure crystals, we are now able to experimentally observe this collective…
Surface modes are coupled electromagnetic/electrostatic excitations of free electrons near the vacuum-plasma interface and can be excited on a sufficiently dense plasma half-space. They propagate along the surface plane and decay in either…
We demonstrate the trapping of millimeter-scale superfluid Helium drops in high vacuum. The drops are sufficiently isolated that they remain trapped indefinitely, cool by evaporation to 330 mK, and exhibit mechanical damping that is limited…
We describe calculations of the properties of quantum fluids inside nanotubes of various sizes. Very small radius ($R$) pores confine the gases to a line, so that a one-dimensional (1D) approximation is applicable; the low temperature…
We discuss annular confinement for electrons on liquid helium surface induced by a tubular electrode submerged beneath the surface. For shallow liquid layer above the tube the resulting potential has a minimum off the axis of the tube. The…
We show that electron wave functions in a quasi-two-dimensional conductor in a parallel magnetic field are always localized on conducting layers. Wave functions and electron spectrum in a quantum limit, where the "sizes" of quasi-classical…
We propose and experimentally demonstrate a new spectroscopic method, image-charge detection, for the Rydberg states of surface electrons on liquid helium. The excitation of the Rydberg states of the electrons induces an image current in…
Tests of quantum mechanics on a macroscopic scale require extreme control over mechanical motion and its decoherence. Quantum control of mechanical motion has been achieved by engineering the radiation-pressure coupling between a…
The energetics and transport properties of the polaron in the anisotropic surface over liquid helium are investigated. The localization radii and the energy of the ground and excited states are calculated using the variational method within…
We consider free electrons in rectangular quantum dots, with either hard wall boundary conditions or anharmonic confinement. In both cases, due to finite size effects, a homogeneous electric field applied along one of the rectangular axis…
Optical tweezers, the three-dimensional confinement of a nanoparticle by a strongly focused beam of light, have been widely employed in investigating biomaterial nanomechanics, nanoscopic fluid properties, and ultrasensitive detections in…
We investigate the influence of confinement on the positional order of a quasi-1D electron system trapped on the surface of liquid helium. We find evidence that the melting of the Wigner solid (WS) depends on the confinement strength, as…
