A macroscopic object passively cooled into its quantum ground state of motion beyond single-mode cooling
Compared to active techniques, passive cooling of mechanical modes allows to work with devices in equilibrium with their environment without excess damping. Here, the authors demonstrate passive cooling and thermalisation of a 15 μm drum-head device with MHz fundamental flexure to its quantum ground...
