Measuring a localization phase diagram controlled by the interplay of disorder and driving
Peter Dotti, Yifei Bai, Toshihiko Shimasaki +2
The interplay of various localizing mechanisms is a central topic of modern condensed matter physics. In this work we experimentally explore the interplay between quasiperiodic dis…
Reversible phasonic control of a quantum phase transition in a quasicrystal
Toshihiko Shimasaki, Yifei Bai, H. Esat Kondakci +6
Periodic driving can tune the quasistatic properties of quantum matter. A well-known example is the dynamical modification of tunneling by an oscillating electric field. Here we sh…
Injection-locking of a fiber-pigtailed laser to an external cavity diode laser via fiber optic circulator
Toshihiko Shimasaki, Eustace R. Edwards, David DeMille
We report a simple tunable master-slave laser injection-lock scheme for atomic physics experiments. Seed light from an external cavity diode laser is injected into a high-power fib…
Continuous Production of Rovibronic Ground State RbCs Molecules via Short-Range Photoassociation to the States
Toshihiko Shimasaki, Jin-Tae Kim, Yuqi Zhu +1
We have investigated rovibronic levels of the strongly mixed states [the 2(1), 3(1), and 4(1) states in Hund's case (c) notation] of RbCs in…
Quantum Simulation of Ultrafast Dynamics Using Trapped Ultracold Atoms
Ruwan Senaratne, Shankari V. Rajagopal, Toshihiko Shimasaki +5
Ultrafast electronic dynamics are typically studied using pulsed lasers. We demonstrate a complementary experimental approach: quantum simulation of ultrafast dynamics using trappe…
Production of rovibronic ground state RbCs molecules via two-photon cascade decay
Toshihiko Shimasaki, Michael Bellos, C. D. Bruzewicz +2
We report the production of ultracold RbCs molecules in the rovibronic ground state, i.e., , by short-range photoassociation to the state followed by…
Continuous Formation of Vibronic Ground State RbCs Molecules via Photoassociation
C. D. Bruzewicz, Mattias Gustavsson, Toshihiko Shimasaki +1
We demonstrate the direct formation of vibronic ground state RbCs molecules by photoassociation of ultracold atoms followed by radiative stabilization. The photoassociation proceed…
