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…

Three-dimensional trapping of individual Rydberg atoms in ponderomotive bottle beam traps
Daniel Barredo, Vincent Lienhard, Pascal Scholl +4
We demonstrate three-dimensional trapping of individual Rydberg atoms in holographic optical bottle beam traps. Starting with cold, ground-state Rb atoms held in standard op…
