• Abstract: We propose a quantum mechanical method of constraining non-Newtonian gravity at the nanometer range. In this method, a hybrid electro-optomechanical system is employed. Applying a strong driving field, we can obtain normal mode splitting of the electromechanical subsystem which is related to the resonance frequency of the mechanical oscillator. Moreover, we investigate the relationship between the variance of normal mode splitting and the resonance frequency shift induced by the gradient of exotic forces provided that our system is operated at critical points. Furthermore, via suppressing the Casimir background, we set a constraint on the non-Newtonian gravity which improves the previous bounds by about a factor of 7 at 1 nanometer range. Our results indicate that our method could be put into consideration in relevant experimental searches.

Our results demonstrate the potential for fluxonium-based hybrid quantum systems, and a path for developing new quantum sensing and information processing schemes with phonons at frequencies below 700 MHz.

  Experimental tests of the generalised uncertainty principle can be performed by searching for the induced frequency perturbations of the modes of mechanical resonators. In this work previous constraints made with mechanical resonators are improved upon by three orders of magnitude. As well as purely mechanical resonant modes; hybrid electromechanical anti-resonant modes are investigated, and shown to be sensitive to the same GUP induced effects.

  In a hybrid quantum system composed of two quantum wells placed inside a cavity with a moving end mirror pumped by bichromatic coherent light, we address the formation of squeezed states of a mechanical resonator. We show that the robustness of this squeezing against thermal fluctuations is important for practical applications of such systems.

  In this work we use an open microcavity composed of a "bottom" semiconductor distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) incorporating an n-i-p heterostructure. We demonstrate a reversible in-situ technique to tune the mode-splitting by applying uniaxial stress to the semiconductor DBR. A thorough study of the mode-splitting and its tuning across the stop-band leads to a quantitative understanding of the mechanism behind the results.

  We show that the simplest set-up of two qubits, harmonically trapped over an optical waveguide, enables the ultrastrong coupling regime of the quantum optomechanical interaction. The combination of the inherent open nature of the system and the strong optomechanical coupling leads to emerging parity-time (PT) symmetry. The $mathcalPT$ phase transition drives long-living subradiant states, observable in the state-of-the-art waveguide QED setups.
