Measuring the quantum vibrations of a small drum at room temperature
Other - News Item, 2024

A combination of technical improvements in noise mitigation enabled the observation of the quantum force of light on a millimetre-scale drum at room temperature. This experimental system permits the drum's position to be measured with an accuracy close to the quantum limit.
