Controllable Coherent Transfer between a Superconducting Resonator and a Mechanical Oscillator

ORAL

Abstract

We report experimental results of controllable coupling between a 7.5 GHz superconducting resonator and a 10 MHz mechanical oscillator. Through time domain measurements, we demonstrate controlled coherent energy transfer between these two systems. Furthermore, by utilizing a Josephson parametric amplifier we have been able to verify coherent transfer of small amplitude states. We compare these results to frequency domain measurements and discuss experimental limitations.
