Coherent phonon manipulation in coupled mechanical resonators

TLDR
In this article, it was shown that phonons can be coherently transferred between two nanomechanical resonators, and the technique of controlling the coupling between nanoscale oscillators using a piezoelectric transducer is useful for manipulating classical oscillations, but if extended to the quantum regime it could also enable entanglement of macroscopic mechanical objects.
Abstract
It is now shown that phonons can be coherently transferred between two nanomechanical resonators, it is now shown. The technique of controlling the coupling between nanoscale oscillators using a piezoelectric transducer is useful for manipulating classical oscillations, but if extended to the quantum regime it could also enable entanglement of macroscopic mechanical objects.

Controllable fast and slow light in the hybrid quantum dot–nanomechanical resonator system mediated by another nanomechanical resonator with Coulomb interaction

TL;DR: In this paper, a doubly clamped suspended nanomechanical resonator with an embedded quantum dot driven by two-tone fields is coupled to another NR via the Coulomb interaction, and the absorption spectra of the probe field under different exciton-pump field detuning is investigated.

Levitated nanoparticle as a classical two-level atom [Invited]

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show how a suitable modulation of the optical trapping potential can give rise to a coupling between two harmonic oscillators, such that their dynamics are governed by a classical equation of motion that resembles the Schrodinger equation for a two-level system.

Frequency control and coherent excitation transfer in a nanostring resonator network

TL;DR: In this article, the resonance frequencies of individual nanostrings in a network can be tuned simply by employing a global force, which enables dynamic control of a nanostring's resonance frequency, which is experimentally explored using the classical analogy of Landau-Zener transitions.

Laser cooling of a nanomechanical oscillator into its quantum ground state

Quantum ground state and single-phonon control of a mechanical resonator

TL;DR: This work shows that conventional cryogenic refrigeration can be used to cool a mechanical mode to its quantum ground state by using a microwave-frequency mechanical oscillator—a ‘quantum drum’—coupled to a quantum bit, which is used to measure the quantum state of the resonator.
