Vacuum fluctuations are a fundamental and irremovable property of a quantized electromagnetic field. These fluctuations are the cause of the Casimir effect—mutual …
Optical trapping enables precise control of individual particles of different sizes, such as atoms, molecules, or nanospheres. Optical tweezers provide free-space omnidirectional …
We propose a novel mechanism for generating single photons in the mid-Infrared (MIR) using a solid-state or molecular quantum emitter. The scheme utilises cavity QED effects to …
