Floquet dynamics in the quantum measurement of mechanical motion

Tobias Kippenberg, Nicolas Piro Mastracchio, Liu Qiu, Itay Shomroni, Marie Adrienne Ioannou

The radiation-pressure interaction between one or more laser fields and a mechanical oscillator gives rise to a wide range of phenomena: From sideband cooling and backaction-evading measurements to ponderomotive and mechanical squeezing to entanglement and ...

Optical backaction-evading measurement of a mechanical oscillator

Tobias Kippenberg, Liu Qiu, Itay Shomroni

Quantum mechanics imposes a limit on the precision of a continuous position measurement of a harmonic oscillator, due to backaction arising from quantum fluctuations in the measurement field. This standard quantum limit can be surpassed by monitoring only ...

High-rate photon pairs and sequential Time-Bin entanglement with Si3N4 microring resonators

Tobias Kippenberg, Maxim Karpov

Integrated photonics is increasing in importance for compact, robust, and scalable enabling quantum technologies. This is particularly interesting for developing quantum communication networks, where resources need to be deployed in the field. We exploit p ...

Two-Tone Optomechanical Instability and Its Fundamental Implications for Backaction-Evading Measurements

Tobias Kippenberg, Amir Youssefi, Liu Qiu, Itay Shomroni

While quantum mechanics imposes a fundamental limit on the precision of interferometric measurementsof mechanical motion due to measurement backaction, the nonlinear nature of the coupling also leads toparametric instabilities that place practical limits o ...

Kerr Comb-based Transfer Oscillator for Ultralow Noise Photonic Microwave Synthesis

Tobias Kippenberg, Erwan Guillaume Albert Lucas

We perform optical frequency division of an ultra-stable laser by using a crystalline-based Kerr frequency comb as a transfer oscillator. We demonstrate absolute phase noise levels of -110 dBc/Hz at 200-Hz offset from a 14 GHz carrier. (C) 2019 The Author( ...

Backaction-evading measurement of mechanical motion in the optical domain

Tobias Kippenberg, Liu Qiu, Itay Shomroni

When measuring the position of a mechanical oscillator, quantum mechanics imposes a strict limit on the attainable precision: Any reduction of imprecision leads to increased quantum backaction of the measuring probe on the oscillator. This quantum limit ca ...

Quantum Motional Sideband Asymmetry in the Presence of Kerr-type Nonlinearities

Tobias Kippenberg, Liu Qiu, Itay Shomroni, Marie Adrienne Ioannou

Sideband asymmetry between the Stokes and anti-Stokes scattering is a signature of the mechanical oscillators in the quantum regime. It has been demonstrated in several optomechanical systems, as a self-calibrated thermometry method. We present motional si ...

Two-Color Pump-Probe Measurement of Photonic Quantum Correlations Mediated by a Single Phonon

Vincenzo Savona, Christophe Marcel Georges Galland, Hugo Pierre Alexandre Flayac, Mitchell David Anderson, Kilian Robert Seibold, Santiago Tarrago Velez

We propose and demonstrate a versatile technique to measure the lifetime of the one-phonon Fock state using two-color pump-probe Raman scattering and spectrally resolved, time-correlated photon counting. Following pulsed laser excitation, the n = 1 phonon ...
