Internship:Optomechanical state transfer through radiation pressure feedback

Internship/Master project: Optomechanical state transfer through radiation pressure feedback

Work Activities

Optical-to-mechanical state transfer is an important capability for emerging quantum networks and quantum memories. Cavity optomechanics provides an interesting platform for achieving such transfer, where radiation pressure mediates the interaction between optical fields and mechanical motion. In this project, you will investigate a new method for state transfer, based on ultrasensitive optical measurements and feedback through radiation pressure forces. This is expected to coherently map information encoded as optical signals onto mechanical motion. Your experiments will investigate the novel possibility of continuous state transfer and may provide new routes for information processing and sensing.
