Experimentally accessible scheme for a fractional Chern insulator in Rydberg atoms
Sebastian Weber, Rukmani Bai, Nastasia Makki +6
We present a setup with Rydberg atoms for the realization of a bosonic fractional Chern insulator in artificial matter. The suggested setup relies on Rydberg atoms arranged in a ho…

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…
