Here, we show the camera-based feedback cooling of a charged nanoparticle levitated in a linear Paul trap. A charged nanoparticle levitated in a vacuum was observed by CMOS camera systems. The nanoparticle images were processed in realtime with a microcontroller integrated with a CMOS image sensor. The phase-delayed position signal was fed-back to one of the trap electrodes resulting in the velocity damping cooling. Our study provides a simple and versatile approach applicable for control of low-frequency mechanical oscillators.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2204.05506v2","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2204.05506v2.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"imaging-based-feedback-cooling-of-a-levitated","repo_url":"https://github.com/minowayosuke/high_fps_camera_feedback","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
