Backaction-Evading Techniques

Backaction-evading techniques

 

 

Investigation of techniques (theory and experiment) to avoid limiting measurement back-action in precision metrology, e.g. quantum-optomechanics.

Activities

  • all-optical quantum radiation pressure noise reduction (Coherent Quantum Noise Cancellation)
  • Laser power stabilisation via radiation pressure
  • Investigation of membrane-in-the-middle (MiM) / membrane-at-the-edge (MatE) optical resonators for quantum optomechanical experiments (at RT and cryogenic)
  • Testing of micro-optomechanical oscillators for cavity experiments near and below the SQL (collaboration with TG “Novel micro-optomechanical oscillators”)

Competences/Services

  • (polarisation-non-degenerate, two-mode) high-frequency squeezed light sources at 1064 nm
  • high-frequency, large-bandwidth, low noise photodetection (single and homodyne)
  • q.o. theory
  • Optical and multi-physics simulations and design
  • various optical and mechanical characterisation
