Strong Coupling of a Single Photon to a Magnetic Vortex
摘要: Strong light-matter coupling means that cavity photons and other type of matter excitations are coherently exchanged. It is used to couple different qubits (matter) via a quantum bus (photons) or to communicate different type of excitations, e.g., transducing light into phonons or magnons. An unexplored, so far, interface is the coupling between light and topologically protected particle-like excitations as magnetic domain walls, skyrmions or vortices. Here, we show theoretically that a single photon living in a superconducting cavity can be strongly coupled to the gyrotropic mode of a magnetic vortex in a nanodisc. We combine numerical and analytical calculations for a superconducting coplanar waveguide resonator and different realizations of the nanodisc (materials and sizes). We show that, for enhancing the coupling, constrictions fabricated in the resonator are crucial, allowing to reach the strong coupling in CoFe discs of radius 200 ? 400 nm having resonance frequencies of few GHz. The strong coupling regime permits to coherently exchange a single photon and quanta of vortex gyration. Thus, our calculations show that the device proposed here serves as a transducer between photons and gyrating vortices, opening the way to complement superconducting qubits with topologically protected spin-excitations like vortices or skyrmions. We finish by discussing potential applications in quantum data processing based on the exploitation of the vortex as a short-wavelength magnon emitter.

Localized Nanoresonator Mode in Plasmonic Microcavities
摘要: Submicron-thick hexagonal boron nitride crystals embedded in noble metals form planar Fabry-Perot half-microcavities. Depositing Au nanoparticles on top of these microcavities forms previously unidentified angle- and polarization-sensitive nanoresonator modes that are tightly laterally confined by the nanoparticle. Comparing dark-field scattering with reflection spectroscopies shows plasmonic and Fabry-Perot-like enhancements magnify subtle interference contributions, which lead to unexpected redshifts in the dark-field spectra, explained by the presence of these new modes.

Nonlinear vibration and stability analysis of double-walled piezoelectric nanoresonator with nonlinear van der Waals and electrostatic excitation
摘要: In this work, nonlinear vibration and frequency response analysis of a double-walled piezoelectric nanoresonator based on a cylindrical nanoshell is performed using the Gurtin–Murdoch surface/interface theory. The piezoelectric nanoresonator is simultaneously subjected to the visco-Pasternak medium and nonlinear van der Waals and electrostatic forces. It is found that the electrostatic and piezoelectric voltages, length to radius ratio, nanoresonator gap width, linear and nonlinear van der Waals coefficients and other parameters can effectively change the flexural rigidity of the system, which in turn affects the nonlinear frequency response. Also, increasing or decreasing of some parameters leads to increase or decrease in the resonance amplitude, resonant frequency, instability of the system, nonlinear behavior and bandwidth.

Two-level system damping in a quasi-one-dimensional optomechanical resonator
摘要: Nanomechanical resonators have demonstrated great potential for use as versatile tools in a number of emerging quantum technologies. For such applications, the performance of these systems is restricted by the decoherence of their fragile quantum states, necessitating a thorough understanding of their dissipative coupling to the surrounding environment. In bulk amorphous solids, these dissipation channels are dominated at low temperatures by parasitic coupling to intrinsic two-level system (TLS) defects; however, there remains a disconnect between theory and experiment on how this damping manifests in dimensionally reduced nanomechanical resonators. Here, we present an optomechanically mediated thermal ringdown technique, which we use to perform simultaneous measurements of the dissipation in four mechanical modes of a cryogenically cooled silicon nanoresonator, with resonant frequencies ranging from 3–19 MHz. Analyzing the device’s mechanical damping rate at fridge temperatures between 10 mK and 10 K, we demonstrate quantitative agreement with the standard tunneling model for TLS ensembles con?ned to one dimension. From these ?ts, we extract the defect density of states (P0 ~ 1?4 × 1044 J?1 m?3) and deformation potentials (γ ~ 1–2 eV), showing that each mechanical mode couples on average to less than a single thermally active defect at 10 mK.
