Resonant stroboscopic Rydberg dressing: electron-motion coupling and multi-body interactions
Chris Nill, Sylvain de Léséleuc, Christian Groß +1
Rydberg dressing traditionally refers to a technique where interactions between cold atoms are imprinted through the far off-resonant continuous-wave excitation of high-lying Rydbe…
Realization of a density-dependent Peierls phase in a synthetic, spin-orbit coupled Rydberg system
Vincent Lienhard, Pascal Scholl, Sebastian Weber +8
We experimentally realize a Peierls phase in the hopping amplitude of excitations carried by Rydberg atoms, and observe the resulting characteristic chiral motion in a minimal setu…
Experimental realization of a symmetry protected topological phase of interacting bosons with Rydberg atoms
Sylvain de Léséleuc, Vincent Lienhard, Pascal Scholl +6
The concept of topological phases is a powerful framework to characterize ground states of quantum many-body systems that goes beyond the paradigm of symmetry breaking. While a few…
Topologically protected edge states in small Rydberg systems
Sebastian Weber, Sylvain de Léséleuc, Vincent Lienhard +4
We propose a simple setup of Rydberg atoms in a honeycomb lattice which gives rise to topologically protected edge states. The proposal is based on the combination of dipolar excha…
Local optical control of the resonant dipole-dipole interaction between Rydberg atoms
Sylvain de Léséleuc, Daniel Barredo, Vincent Lienhard +2
We report on the local control of the transition frequency of a spin- encoded in two Rydberg levels of an individual atom by applying a state-selective light shift using an ad…
