• Abstract: An appropriate Lagrangian is considered for a system comprising a moving nanoparticle in a semi-infinite space, and the electromagnetic and matter fields are quantized. Through an analysis of the absorbed power radiation, it is demonstrated that the quantum friction experienced by high-velocity nanoparticles can be identified as a dissipative term in the radiation power of the nanoparticle. The absorbed power radiation for a moving nanoparticle is derived and compared with that of a static one. By considering two different temperature scenarios, it is explicitly shown that the absorbed power radiation for a moving nanoparticle always contains a negative term in its power spectrum, which can be attributed to the power lost due to non-contact quantum friction.

  We propose a scheme for generating high-mass quantum superposition states of an optically pre-cooled, levitated nanoparticles. By imaging the electron interferogram, one maps the nanoparticles state onto a superposition of Bragg momenta. This results in a coherent momentum splitting 1000 times greater than what is achievable with two-photon recoils.

  Quasiparticles are emergent excitations of matter that underlie much of our understanding of quantum many-body systems. We take advantage of the clean setting of homogeneous quantum gases and fast radio-frequency control to manipulate Fermi polarons. We measure the decay rate and the quasiparticle residue of the driven polaron from the Rabi oscillations between the two internal states.

  We study the potential for controlled transfer of population to the biexciton state of a semiconductor quantum dot coupled with a metal nanoparticles. In certain cases, when the distance between the two particles is small, the transfer of population is strongly modified because of the influence of surface plasmons to the excitons.
