科学前沿报告会

报告题目: Quantum optomechanics – Introduction and some recent developments 报 告 人: Pierre Meystre 教授(亚利桑那大学& Phys. Rev. Lett. Lead Editor) 报告时间: 2014年5月20日(周二)下午 2:00 报告地点: 物理楼中楼212教室 联系人: 何琼毅 研究员 (qiongyihe@pku.edu.cn) 摘要: Quantum optomechanics is rapidly developing into a major area of research at the boundary between quantum optics, nanoscience, ultracold science, and quantum metrology. This is a result of a convergence from two perspectives on the physical world. From the top down, ultra-sensitive micromechanical and nanomechanical detectors have become available utilizing the advanced materials and processing techniques of the semiconductor industry and nanoscience. From the bottom-up perspective, quantum optics and atomic physics have yielded an exquisite understanding of the mechanical aspects of light–matter interaction, including how quantum mechanics limits the ultimate sensitivity of measurements and how back- action—the influence a quantum measurement necessarily exerts on the object being measured— can be harnessed to control quantum states of mechanical systems. As a result quantum optomechanics offers considerable potential both in fundamental and in applied science, with the promise of sensors capable of probing extremely feeble forces, often with spatial resolution at atomic scales.
After a general tutorial introduction, the talk will discuss selected recent developments, concentrating primarily on studies of the quantum-classical interface and of quantum thermodynamics.

APS Picks Pierre Meystre to Lead PRL Editorial Team http://www.aps.org/publications/apsnews/201307/prleditor.cfm
Pierre Meystre obtained his Physics Diploma and PhD from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne in 1971 and 1974, respectively, and the Habilitation in Theoretical Physics from the University of Munich in 1983. He joined the Max-Planck Institute for Quantum Optics in 1977, following a postdoctoral position with M. O. Scully at The University of Arizona. In 1986, he returned to The University of Arizona where he is currently a Regents Professor of Optical Sciences and Physics, holds the Chair of Quantum Optics and is Director of the B2 Institute. Since 2013 he is also the Lead Editor of Physical Review Letters. Dr. Meystre’s research includes theoretical quantum optics, atomic physics, ultracold science, and quantum optomechanics. He has published over 300 refereed papers and is the author of the text “Elements of Quantum Optics”, together with Murray Sargent III, and of the monograph “Atom Optics.” He is a Fellow of the Optical Society of America, of the American Physical Society, and of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. He is a recipient of the Humboldt Foundation Research Prize for Senior US Scientists, of the R. W. Wood Prize of the Optical Society of America, and was a Simons Foundation Lecturer at the State University of New York, Stony Brook. Dr. Meystre serves on numerous national and international committees. He was a member of the Board on Physics and Astronomy of the National Research Council and chaired its Standing Committee on Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics. He also chaired the Division of Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics of the American Physical Society, where he currently serves as General Councilor and as a member of the Executive Board.
