Collective Atomic Motion in an Optical Lattice formed inside a High Finesse Cavity
arXiv:quant-ph/0305164 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.91.153003
Abstract
We report on collective non-linear dynamics in an optical lattice formed inside a high finesse ring cavity in a so far unexplored regime, where the light shift per photon times the number of trapped atoms exceeds the cavity resonance linewidth. We observe bistability and self-induced squeezing oscillations resulting from the retro-action of the atoms upon the optical potential wells. We can well understand most of our observations within a simplified model assuming adiabaticity of the atomic motion. Non-adiabatic aspects of the atomic motion are reproduced by solving the complete system of coupled non-linear equations of motion for hundred atoms.
