New Frontiers in Quantum Optomechanics: from levitation to gravitational quantum physics

Abstract

Cavity Optomechanical systems have originally been studied from the early 1970s on in the context of gravitational wave antennas [1]. The last few years have seen a completely new generation of nano- and micro-optomechanical devices with diverse application domains ranging from classical sensing to quantum information processing [2]. The developments in the field have even lead to a new coating technology for low-noise optical precision interferometry [3].
