Arrays of optically trapped nanoparticles have emerged as a platform for the study of
complex nonequilibrium phenomena. Analogous to atomic many-body systems, one of the …

The ability to engineer cavity-mediated interactions has emerged as a powerful tool for the
generation of non-local correlations and the investigation of non-equilibrium phenomena in …

Mechanical systems prepared in quantum non-Gaussian states constitute a new advanced
class of phenomena breaking the laws of classical physics. Specifically, such mechanical …

Motional control of levitated nanoparticles relies on either autonomous feedback via a cavity
or measurement-based feedback via external forces. Recent demonstrations of the …

We theoretically show that strong mechanical quantum squeezing in a linear
optomechanical system can be rapidly generated through the dynamical instability reached …

Quantum theory is incredibly successful, explaining the microscopic world with great
accuracy, from the behaviour of subatomic particles to chemical reactions to solid-state …

All three motional modes of a charged dielectric nanoparticle in a Paul trap are cooled
simultaneously by direct feedback to temperatures of a few millikelvins. We test two …

We explore, experimentally and theoretically, the emergence of coherent coupled
oscillations and synchronization between a pair of non-Hermitian, stochastic, opto …

Quantum entanglement in the motion of macroscopic objects is of significance to both
fundamental studies and quantum technologies. Here we show how to entangle the …

Coherent scattering of photons is a novel mechanism of optomechanical coupling for
optically levitated nanoparticles promising strong, versatile interactions with light and …
