Coupling mechanical resonators and emitters

In our latest arXiv submission, we propose a new mechanism to create a coherent coupling between a macroscopic mechanical resonator to a two-level quantum emitter. The idea relies on a principle we term mode...

Postdocs’ previous research on Nature Nanotechnology covers

John Mathew published his work on graphene nanomechanics, performed at the Tata Institute (TIFR), in the September issue of Nature Nanotechnology and made the cover. Something similar happened earlier this year: Juha Muhonen’s work...

Juha Muhonen awarded Marie Skłodowska-Curie fellowship

Juha Muhonen was awarded a prestigious postdoctoral fellowship from the EU to perform a 2 year postdoctoral project on coupling photons, phonons, and spins in nano-optomechanical systems. Congratulations Juha!
