Measuring the quantum vibrations of a small drum at room temperature

Nature, Published online: 01 March 2024; doi:10.1038/d41586-024-00064-1A 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.
