  • Classical Pendulum Feels Quantum Back-Action

    by Nobuyuki Matsumoto ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    In this thesis, ultimate sensitive measurement for weak force imposed on a suspended mirror is performed with the help of a laser and an optical cavity for the development of gravitational-wave detectors. According to the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, such measurements are subject to a fundamental noise called quantum noise, which arises from the quantum nature of a probe (light) and a ...

  • Exciton Transport Phenomena in GaAs Coupled Quantum Wells

    by Jason Leonard ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This thesis presents results crucial to the emerging field of indirect excitons. These specially designed quasiparticles give the unique opportunity to study fundamental properties of quantum degenerate Bose gases in semiconductors. Furthermore, indirect excitons allow for the creation of novel optoelectronic devices where excitons are used in place of electrons. Excitonic devices are explored for ... Read more

  • Cooperative Optical Non-Linearity in a Blockaded Rydberg Ensemble

    by Jonathan D. Pritchard ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This thesis describes the first demonstration of a cooperative optical non-linearity based on Rydberg excitation. Whereas in conventional non-linear optics the non-linearity arises directly from the interaction between light and matter, in a cooperative process it is mediated by dipole-dipole interactions between light-induced excitations. For excitation to high Rydberg states where the electron ... Read more
