Type of internship
Expérimental Description
During this internship, the student will experimentally setup an optomechanical platform consisting of a nanoparticle optically levitated in vacuum. Through a spatial modulation of the input light field, a mechanically-induced correlation between phase and amplitude fluctuations of the optical field will be enforced. Such a correlation will be maximized to achieve a quantum squeezing of the scattered light field. A funding is available to continue and expand this internship through a PhD.
