Suppression of quantum-radiation-pressure noise in an optical spring
Suppression of quantum-radiation-pressure noise in an optical spring
Recent advances in micro- and nanofabrication techniques have led to corresponding improvement in the performance of optomechanical systems, which provide a promising avenue towards quantum-limited metrology and the study of quantum behavior in macroscopic mechanical objects. One major impediment to reaching the quantum regime is thermal excitation, which can be …
