Abstract

We demonstrate that a Kalman filter applied to estimate the position of an optically levitated nanoparticle, and operated in real-time within a field programmable gate array, is sufficient to perform closed-loop parametric feedback cooling of the center-of-mass motion to sub-Kelvin temperatures. The translational center-of-mass motion along the optical axis of the trapped nanoparticle has been cooled by 3 orders of magnitude, from a temperature of 300 K to a temperature of 162±15 mK.
