Microwave-assisted coherent control of ultracold polar molecules with a ladder-type rotational states

Ting Gong, Zhonghua Ji, Jiaqi Du +3

We have demonstrated microwave-assisted coherent control of ultracold RbCs molecules with a ladder-type configuration of rotational states. A probe microwave (MW) fi…

Dynamical beats of short pulses in waveguide QED

Dianqiang Su, Yuan Jiang, Silvia Cardenas-Lopez +4

We study temporal oscillations, known as dynamical beats, developed by a propagating pulse due to its interaction with a near-resonant collective medium of Cs atoms randoml…

Composite picosecond control of atomic state through a nanofiber interface

Yudi Ma, Ruijuan Liu, Lingjing Ji +6

Atoms are ideal quantum sensors and quantum light emitters. Interfacing atoms with nanophotonic devices promises novel nanoscale sensing and quantum optical functionalities. But pr…

Exceptional nexus in Bose-Einstein condensates with collective dissipation

Chenhao Wang, Nan Li, Jin Xie +6

In multistate non-Hermitian systems, higher-order exceptional points and exotic phenomena with no analogues in two-level systems arise. A paradigm is the exceptional nexus (EX), a…

Detecting Complex-Energy Braiding Topology in a Dissipative Atomic Simulator with Transformer-Based Geometric Tomography

Yang Yue, Nan Li, Xin Zhang +8

Machine learning (ML) is shaping our exploration of topological matter, whose existence is inherently tied to the geometry of quantum states or energy spectra. In non-Hermitian sys…

Torsional optomechanical cooling of a nanofiber

Dianqiang Su, Pablo Solano, Jeffrey D. Wack +2

We demonstrate the optomechanical cooling of a tapered optical nanofiber by coupling the polarization of light to the mechanical angular momentum of the system. The coupling is ena…

A simple, reliable, and no-destructive method for the measurement of vacuum pressure

Jinpeng Yuan, Zhonghua Ji, Yanting Zhao +3

We present a simple, reliable, and no-destructive method for the measurement of vacuum pressure in a magneto-optical trap. The vacuum pressure is verified to be proportional to col…
