Direct measurement of Kramers turnover with a levitated nanoparticle
Nature Nanotechnology 12, 1130 (2017).
doi:10.1038/nnano.2017.198
Authors: Loïc Rondin, Jan Gieseler, Francesco Ricci, Romain Quidant, Christoph Dellago & Lukas Novotny
Understanding the thermally activated escape from a metastable state is at the heart of important phenomena such as the folding dynamics of proteins, the kinetics of chemical reactions or the stability of mechanical systems. In 1940, Kramers calculated escape rates both in the high damping and low damping regimes, and suggested that the rate must have a maximum for intermediate damping. This phenomenon, today known as the Kramers turnover, has ...

One of the current challenges in photonics is developing high-speed, power-efficient, chip-integrated optical communications devices to address the interconnects bottleneck in high-speed computing systems. Silicon photonics has emerged as a leading architecture, in part because of the promise that many c...
