Kavli Affiliate: Sven Herrmann | First 5 Authors: Govindarajan Prakash, Govindarajan Prakash, , , | Summary: Optically trapped Silica nanoparticles are a promising tool for precise sensing of gravitational or inertial forces and fundamental physics, including tests of quantum mechanics at ‘large’ mass scales. This field, called levitated optomechanics can greatly benefit from an application […]
