We report dispersive coupling of an optically trapped silica nanoparticle ($143~$nm diameter) to the field of a driven Fabry-Perot cavity in high vacuum ($4.3times 10^{-6}~$mbar). We demonstrate nanometer-level control in positioning the particle with respect to the intensity distribution of the cavity field, which allows access to linear, quadratic and tertiary optomechanical interactions in the resolved sideband regime. We determine all relevant coupling rates of the system, i.e. mechanical and optical losses as well as optomechanical interaction, and obtain a quantum cooperativity of $C_Q = 0.01$. Based on the presented performance the regime of strong cooperativity ($C_Q > 1$) is clearly within reach by further decreasing the mode volume of the cavity.

Nonclassical optomechanical correlations enable optical control of mechanical motion beyond the limitations of classical driving. Here we investigate the feasibility of using pulsed cavity-optomechanics to create and verify nonclassical phase-sensiti
ve correlations between light and the motion of a levitated nanoparticle in a realistic scenario. We show that optomechanical two-mode squeezing can persist even at the elevated temperatures of state-of-the-art experimental setups. We introduce a detection scheme based on optical homodyning that allows revealing nonclassical correlations without full optomechanical state tomography. We provide an analytical treatment using the rotating wave approximation (RWA) in the resolved-sideband regime and prove its validity with a full numerical solution of the Lyapunov equation beyond the RWA. We build on parameters of current experiments for our analysis and conclude that the observation of nonclassical correlations is possible today.
We describe a proposal for a new type of optomechanical system based on a drop of liquid helium that is magnetically levitated in vacuum. In the proposed device, the drop would serve three roles: its optical whispering gallery modes would provide the
optical cavity, its surface vibrations would constitute the mechanical element, and evaporation of He atoms from its surface would provide continuous refrigeration. We analyze the feasibility of such a system in light of previous experimental demonstrations of its essential components: magnetic levitation of mm-scale and cm-scale drops of liquid He, evaporative cooling of He droplets in vacuum, and coupling to high-quality optical whispering gallery modes in a wide range of liquids. We find that the combination of these features could result in a device that approaches the single-photon strong coupling regime, due to the high optical quality factors attainable at low temperatures. Moreover, the system offers a unique opportunity to use optical techniques to study the motion of a superfluid that is freely levitating in vacuum (in the case of $^{4}mathrm {He}$). Alternatively, for a normal fluid drop of $^3 mathrm{He}$, we propose to exploit the coupling between the drops rotations and vibrations to perform quantum non-demolition measurements of angular momentum.
The coupling of mechanical and optical degrees of freedom via radiation pressure has been a subject of early research in the context of gravitational wave detection. Recent experimental advances have allowed studying for the first time the modificati
ons of mechanical dynamics provided by radiation pressure. This paper reviews the consequences of back-action of light confined in whispering-gallery dielectric micro-cavities, and presents a unified treatment of its two manifestations: notably the parametric instability (parametric amplification) and radiation pressure back-action cooling. Parametric instability offers a novel photonic clock which is driven purely by the pressure of light. In contrast, radiation pressure cooling can surpass existing cryogenic technologies and offers cooling to phonon occupancies below unity and provides a route towards cavity Quantum Optomechanics
Ultra-high sensitivity detection of quantum-scale displacements in cavity optomechanics optimises the combined errors from measurement back-action and imprecisions from incoming quantum noises. This sets the well-known Standard Quantum Limit (SQL). N
ormal quantum cavity optomechanics allows cooling and detection of a single degree of freedom, along the cavity axis. However, a recent breakthrough that allows quantum ground-state cooling of levitated nanoparticles [Delic et al, arxiv:1911.04406], is uniquely 3D in character, with coupling along the $x$, $y$ and $z$ axes. We investigate current experiments and show that the underlying behaviour is far from the addition of independent 1D components and that ground-state cooling and sensing analysis must consider- to date neglected- 3D hybridisation effects. We characterise the additional 3D spectral contributions and find direct and indirect hybridising pathways can destructively interfere suppressing of 3D effects at certain parameters in order to approach, and possibly surpass, the SQL. We identify a sympathetic cooling mechanism that can enhance cooling of weaker coupled modes, arising from optomechanically induced correlations.
Levitated optomechanical systems are rapidly becoming leading tools for precision sensing, enabling a high level of control over the sensors center of mass motion, rotation and electric charge state. Higher-order multipole moments in the charge distr
ibution, however, remain a major source of backgrounds. By applying controlled precessive torques to the dipole moment of a levitated microsphere in vacuum, we demonstrate cancellation of dipole-induced backgrounds by 2 orders of magnitude. We measure the dipole moments of ng-mass spheres and determine their scaling with sphere size, finding that the dominant torques arise from induced dipole moments related to dielectric-loss properties of the SiO$_2$ spheres. Control of multipole moments in the charge distribution of levitated sensors is a key requirement to sufficiently reduce background sources in future applications.
