Quantum imaging of spin states in optical lattices
arXiv:1007.1899 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.82.033434
Abstract
We investigate imaging of the spatial spin distribution of atoms in optical lattices using non-resonant light scattering. We demonstrate how scattering spatially correlated light from the atoms can result in spin state images with enhanced spatial resolution. Furthermore, we show how using spatially correlated light can lead to direct measurement of the spatial correlations of the atomic spin distribution.
