Extended Data Fig. 2: Effective heating by means of a noisy electric field.

From: Heating and cooling are fundamentally asymmetric and evolve along distinct pathways

Extended Data Fig. 2

Left panel: PSD of the position of a trapped microparticle without (1) and with (2) the noisy electric eld. Solid, black lines correspond to the fitting curves. The PSD of the output voltage signal is also included (3). Right panel: effective temperatures as a function of the squared voltage amplitude. The dots represent the mean of a set of ten independent measurements of the temperature, while the error bars represent the standard deviation of the previous set. The solid line corresponds to the linear fitting, according to Eq. (7).
