The rise of quantum information science has provided new perspectives on quantum
mechanics, as well as a common language for quantum engineering. The focus on platforms …

Just as “classical” information technology rests on a foundation built of interconnected
information-processing systems, quantum information technology (QIT) must do the same. A …

Cavity optomechanical systems enable interactions between light and mechanical
resonators, providing a platform both for fundamental physics of macroscopic quantum …

Quantum mechanics sets a limit for the precision of continuous measurement of the position
of an oscillator. We show how it is possible to measure an oscillator without quantum back …

According to quantum mechanics, a harmonic oscillator can never be completely at rest.
Even in the ground state, its position will always have fluctuations, called the zero-point …

The field of cavity optomechanics is reviewed. This field explores the interaction between
electromagnetic radiation and nanomechanical or micromechanical motion. This review …

Numerous astrophysical and cosmological observations are best explained by the existence
of dark matter, a mass density which interacts only very weakly with visible, baryonic matter …

The measurement of minuscule forces and displacements with ever greater precision is
inhibited by the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, which imposes a limit to the precision with …

By exploiting recent developments associated with coupled microcavities, we introduce the
concept of the PT-symmetric phonon laser with balanced gain and loss. This is …

An optical network of superconducting quantum bits (qubits) is an appealing platform for
quantum communication and distributed quantum computing, but develo** a quantum …
