Beyond the physics, this platform allows data collection up to a million times faster than conventional setups, opening new possibilities for machine-learning-driven discovery of hydrodynamic phenomena.

Very excited to see our latest publication "Nonlinear wave dynamics on a chip" published in the journal Science! :

[Chris Baker @Chris_G_Baker]

We build an on-chip wave flume that uses nanometer-thick superfluid helium films confined to a lithographically defined semiconductor chip. Remarkably, these tiny wave tanks can reach regimes of extreme nonlinear flow that can surpass those in the largest terrestrial facilities

Our proposal for an Optomechanical Dark matter INstrument (ODIN) has just been published in PRD, and outlines a new method for the direct detection of low-mass dark matter:

Our paper on stearing acoustic waves on a chip just appeared in APL.
We show directional emission in an integrated acoustic waveguide, with over 99.9% directional efficiency and reconfigurable directionality. Read it here:

Many thanks to ANZOS President @FredVanH and ANZOS Secretary Moritz Merklein.

[Chris Baker @Chris_G_Baker]

Very proud of my student Ray Harrison who was the winner of the 2023 ANZOS Postgraduate award, which "recognises outstanding contributions by postgraduate students to the field of optics and photonics in Australia and New Zealand"!

[QOLab @QuantumOpticsLb]

Excited for our latest superfluid research to appear in Science Advances !

Our work on leveraging entropic forces to enable strong dynamical backaction in an optomechanical system is out on arXiv:
https://t.co/ZQGFzcgKB1

The basic idea is outlined below ⬇️⬇️

Our paper 'Cryogenic and hermetically sealed packaging of photonic chips for optomechanics'
https://t.co/AVx0RCWDPk has just been published in Optics Express

[QOLab @QuantumOpticsLb]

Our preprint "Scalable nanomechanical logic gate" is out on arXiv:

[Warwick Bowen @Warwick_Bowen]

Excited to announce four new postdoc positions in my lab on quantum optomechanics, quantum sensing in biology, precision sensing and nanomechanical computing. Join us! https://t.co/6Uo9aWCGVz

[Warwick Bowen @Warwick_Bowen]

Excited that @newscientist has picked up our latest work on scalable nanomechanical logic in @QuantumOpticsLb.

[New Scientist @newscientist]

The Landauer limit is the least amount of energy that a computer component can use to process information. A new logic gate that uses "nanoscopic trampolines" could approach this lower bound https://t.co/riKjgw6Ga4

[Erick Romero @ErickRomero_S]

Check it out, New Scientist picked up our @QuantumOpticsLb preprint about nanomechanical logic gates 🥳.
Great team Nico, Tim, Raj, @GlenIHarris @Chris_G_Baker @BowenWarwick.

[Mikolaj K. Schmidt @MikolajKSchmidt]

Our chapter on the convergence of fields of Brillouin scattering and cavity optomechanics with @Chris_G_Baker and @RaphaelVanLaer is finally out, just in time for the quantum acoustics GRC! https://t.co/1ehPNuAxIg

[QOLab @QuantumOpticsLb]

New PhD project "Beaming photons through exotic liquids; uncovering the mysteries of superfluid helium with light" ! with @GlenIHarris; more details below:
