- Abstract: Measurement-based control has emerged as an important technique to prepare
mechanical resonators in pure quantum states for applications in quantum
information processing and quantum sensing. Conventionally this has required
two separate channels, one for probing the motion and another one acting back
on the resonator. In this work, we analyze and experimentally demonstrate a
technique of single-laser feedback cooling, where one laser is used for both
probing and controlling the mechanical motion. We show using an analytical
model and experiments that feedback cooling is feasible in this mode as long as
certain stability requirements are fulfilled. Our results demonstrate that, in
addition to being more experimentally feasible construction, the interference
effects of the single-laser feedback can actually be used to enhance cooling at
some parameter regimes.

We study a model of amplification of quantum transfer and making it directed which we call the quantum ratchet model.
The ratchet effect is achieved in the quantum control model with dissipation and sink, where the Hamiltonian depends on vibrations in the energy difference synchronized with transitions between energy levels.
Amplitude and frequency of the oscillating vibron together with the dephasing rate are the parameters of the quantum ratchet which determine its efficiency.

Adding or subtracting a single quantum of excitation to a thermal state of a bosonic system has the counter-intuitive effect of approximately doubling its mean occupation.
We perform the first experimental demonstration of this effect outside optics by implementing single-phonon addition and subtraction.
We observe this doubling of the mechanical thermal fluctuations to a high precision using a detection scheme that combines single-photon counting and optical heterodyne detection.

We propose two measurement-based schemes to cool a nonlinear mechanical resonator down to energies close to that of its ground state.
The protocols rely on projective measurements of a spin degree of freedom, which interacts with the resonator through a Jaynes-Cummings interaction.
We show the performance of these cooling schemes, that can be either -- i.e. built by repeating a sequence of dynamical evolutions followed by projective measurements -- or single-shot.
