Nanostructures
- Authors: Juan R. Deop-Ruano and Alejandro Manjavacas
- Abstract summary: We investigate the simultaneous transfer of energy and angular momentum in a pair of rotating nanostructures.
We demonstrate that, due to the rotation of the nanostructures, the radiative heat transfer between them can be increased, decreased, or even reversed with respect to the transfer that occurs in absence of rotation.
This work unravels the unintuitive phenomena arising from the simultaneous transfer of energy and angular momentum in pairs of rotating nanostructures.

- Abstract: The fluctuations of the electromagnetic field are at the origin of the
near-field radiative heat transfer between nanostructures, as well as the
Casimir forces and torques that they exert on each other. Here, working within
the formalism of fluctuational electrodynamics, we investigate the simultaneous
transfer of energy and angular momentum in a pair of rotating nanostructures.
We demonstrate that, due to the rotation of the nanostructures, the radiative
heat transfer between them can be increased, decreased, or even reversed with
respect to the transfer that occurs in absence of rotation, which is solely
determined by the difference in the temperature of the nanostructures. This
work unravels the unintuitive phenomena arising from the simultaneous transfer
of energy and angular momentum in pairs of rotating nanostructures.

Interacting Nanoparticles [0.0]
We show that feedback-cooling of two levitated, interacting nanoparticles enables differential sensing of forces and the observation of stationary entanglement.
We predict that force-gradient sensing at the zepto-Newton per micron range is feasible and that entanglement due to the Coulomb interaction between charged particles can be realistically observed in state-of-the-art setups.

superconductor [0.0]
Quantum computation and simulation requires strong coherent coupling between qubits, which may be spatially separated.
Here we theoretically investigate a method for achieving such coupling, based on superconducting nano-structures designed to channel the magnetic flux created by the qubits.
We show that such structures could channel the magnetic flux, enhancing the dipole-dipole interaction between spin qubits and changing its scaling with distance, thus potentially paving the way for controllably engineering an interacting spin system.

We report the existence of a sizeable quantum tunnelling splitting between the two lowest electronic spin levels of mononuclear Ni complexes.
The level anti-crossing, or magnetic clock transition, associated with this gap has been directly monitored by heat capacity experiments.
The comparison of these results with those obtained for a Co derivative, for which tunnelling is forbidden by symmetry, shows that the clock transition leads to an effective suppression of intermolecular spin-spin interactions.

Electrical control of spins at the nanoscale offers architectural advantages in spintronics.
Recent demonstrations of electric-field (E-field) sensitivities in molecular spin materials are tantalising.
E-field sensitivities reported so far are rather weak, prompting the question of how to design molecules with stronger spin-electric couplings.
