Theory of nanoparticle cooling by elliptic coherent scattering
Henning Rudolph, Jonas Schäfer, Benjamin A. Stickler, Klaus Hornberger
Abstract
The authors present the theoretical framework of elliptic coherent scattering cooling for aspherical nanoparticles. These theoretical tools could potentially enable simultaneous cooling of the rotational and translational motions of nanoscale dielectrics into the quantum regime.
