Written by leading experimentalist Warwick P. Bowen and prominent
theoretician Gerard J. Milburn, Quantum Optomechanics discusses
modern developments in this novel field from experimental and
theoretical standpoints. The authors share their insight on a range
of important topics, including optomechanical cooling and
entanglement; quantum limits on measurement precision and how to
overcome them via back-action evading measurements; feedback
control; single photon and nonlinear optomechanics; optomechanical
synchronization; coupling of optomechanical systems to microwave
circuits and two-level systems, such as atoms and superconducting
qubits; and optomechanical tests of gravitational decoherence. The
book first introduces the basic physics of quantum harmonic
oscillators and their interactions with their environment. It next
discusses the radiation pressure interaction between light and
matter, deriving common Hamiltonians used in quantum optomechanics.
It then focuses on the linearized regime of quantum optomechanics
before exploring scenarios where the simple linearized picture of
quantum optomechanics no longer holds. The authors move on to
hybrid optomechanical systems in which the canonical quantum
optomechanical system is coupled to another quantum object. They
explain how an alternative form of a hybrid optomechanical system
leads to the phenomenon of synchronization. They also consider the
impact of quantum optomechanics on tests of gravitational physics.
