Quantum hybrid systems have recently attracted considerable interest due to their prospects of combining the benefits of several very different quantum systems. Technological applications range from quantum computation and quantum communication to quantum enhanced sensing. We have realized a specific quantum hybrid experiment to optically couple ultracold atoms to a cryogenically cooled membrane oscillator inside a fiber Fabry-Perot cavity. In our first experiments we have characterized in detail the coupling of the mechanical oscillator to the atoms by means of dissipative sympathetic cooling. Here, we present work towards coherent dynamics in the quantum hybrid system. Specifically, we improved our optomechanical system with an ultra-high-Q mechanical oscillator to allow ground-state cooling by means of active feedback control. For state preparation on the atomic side we perform microsecond pulsed lattice loading for non-adiabatic transfer of a Bose-Einstein condensate into the ground-state of our optical coupling lattice beam.
