Experimental realization of a thermal squeezed state of levitated optomechanics (2016)
Journal Article
Rashid, M., Tufarelli, T., Bateman, J., Vovrosh, J., Hempston, D., Kim, M. S., & Ulbricht, H. (in press). Experimental realization of a thermal squeezed state of levitated optomechanics. Physical Review Letters, 117(27), Article 273601. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.117.273601

We experimentally squeeze the thermal motional state of an optically levitated nanosphere by fast switching between two trapping frequencies. The measured phase-space distribution of the center of mass of our particle shows the typical shape of a squ...

Quantum state reconstruction of an oscillator network in an optomechanical setting (2016)
Journal Article
Moore, D. W., Tufarelli, T., Paternostro, M., & Ferraro, A. (2016). Quantum state reconstruction of an oscillator network in an optomechanical setting. Physical Review A, 94(5), Article 053811. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevA.94.053811

We introduce a scheme to reconstruct an arbitrary quantum state of a mechanical oscillator network. We assume that a single element of the network is coupled to a cavity field via a linearized optomechanical interaction, whose time dependence is cont...

Bound states and entanglement generation in waveguide quantum electrodynamics (2016)
Journal Article
Facchi, P., Kim, M., Pascazio, S., Pepe, F. V., Pomarico, D., & Tufarelli, T. (2016). Bound states and entanglement generation in waveguide quantum electrodynamics. Physical Review A, 94(4), Article 043839. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevA.94.043839

We investigate the behavior of two quantum emitters (two-level atoms) embedded in a linear waveguide, in a quasi-one-dimensional configuration. Since the atoms can emit, absorb and reflect radiation, the pair can spontaneously relax towards an entang...
