Phonon heat transfer across a vacuum through quantum fluctuations

KY Fong, HK Li, R Zhao, S Yang, Y Wang, X Zhang - Nature, 2019 - nature.com
Heat transfer in solids is typically conducted through either electrons or atomic vibrations
known as phonons. In a vacuum, heat has long been thought to be transferred by radiation …

Emission of photon pairs by mechanical stimulation of the squeezed vacuum

W Qin, V Macrì, A Miranowicz, S Savasta, F Nori - Physical Review A, 2019 - APS
To observe the dynamical Casimir effect (DCE) induced by a moving mirror is a long-
standing challenge because the mirror velocity needs to approach the speed of light. Here …

Domino cooling of a coupled mechanical-resonator chain via cold-damping feedback

DG Lai, J Huang, BP Hou, F Nori, JQ Liao - Physical Review A, 2021 - APS
We propose a domino-cooling method to realize simultaneous ground-state cooling of a
coupled mechanical-resonator chain through an optomechanical cavity working in the …
