Hybrid Optomechanics

We explore hybrid devices where superconducting microwave circuits couple to mechanical degrees of freedom.
These systems can connect microwave photons, motion, and dissipation in useful ways, opening paths toward quantum transduction, sensitive force and displacement measurement, and new regimes of macroscopic quantum control.

Marco Scigliuzzo is Assistant Professor at the University of Sherbrooke, where he holds the Chair in Development of Quantum Technologies. His research explores superconducting quantum circuits, quantum acoustics, circuit optomechanics, and engineered microwave environments for quantum optics.
His work has contributed to the control of photonic and phononic degrees of freedom at the quantum level, high-coherence superconducting devices, quantum acoustics with tunable nonlinearity, and collective quantum motion in mechanical resonator arrays.
