Room-Temperature Quantum Optomechanics and Free-Electron Quantum Optics
Quantum optics studies how photons interact with other forms of matter, the understanding of which was crucial for the development of quantum mechanics as a whole. Starting from the photoelectric effect, the quantum property of light has led to the develop ...
EPFL2024Thermal Evolution of Dirac Magnons in the Honeycomb Ferromagnet CrBr3
Bruce Normand, Christian Rüegg
CrBr3 is an excellent realization of the two-dimensional honeycomb ferromagnet, which offers a bosonic equivalent of graphene with Dirac magnons and topological character. We perform inelastic neutron scattering measurements using state-of-the-art instrume ...
2022Dynamical properties of a driven dissipative dimerized S=1/2 chain
We consider the dynamical properties of a gapped quantum spin system coupled to the electric field of a laser, which drives the resonant excitation of specific phonon modes that modulate the magnetic interactions. We deduce the quantum master equations gov ...
2021A Gyrokinetic Model for the Tokamak Periphery
Paolo Ricci, Rogério Manuel Cabete De Jesus Jorge, Baptiste Jimmy Frei, Antoine Baillod
Despite significant developments over the last decades, an analytical model which adequately describes plasma dynamics in the tokamak periphery region extending from the edge region to the far scrape-off layer is still missing. In this work, we present a n ...
2018Study of Field Misalignment in a Cavity Used for Atomic Clock Applications
In vapor cell atomic clocks the atom-field interaction is typically obtained inside a microwave cavity resonator in which the microwave driving field together with a static magnetic field and an optical field are applied to excite the atoms. These fields a ...
