Optical depth dictates universal bounds on many-body decay in atomic ensembles

Cosimo C. Rusconi, Eric Sierra, Wai-Keong Mok +3

Cooperative emission is well understood for idealized symmetric systems, but its fundamental limits in spatially extended, free-space ensembles remain an open question. Here, we de…

Polaron-Polaritons in Subwavelength Arrays of Trapped Atoms

Kristian Knakkergaard Nielsen, Lukas Wangler, David Castells-Graells +4

Subwavelength arrays of atoms trapped in optical lattices or tweezers are inherently susceptible to deformations: Optomechanical forces displace atoms within their trapping potenti…

Optomechanical self-organization in a mesoscopic atom array

Jacquelyn Ho, Yue-Hui Lu, Tai Xiang +5

Increasing the number of particles in a system often leads to qualitative changes in its properties, such as breaking of symmetries and the appearance of phase transitions. This re…

Universal scaling laws for correlated decay of many-body quantum systems

Wai-Keong Mok, Avishi Poddar, Eric Sierra +3

Quantum systems are open, continually exchanging energy and information with the surrounding environment. This interaction leads to decoherence and decay of quantum states. In comp…

Collectively enhanced ground-state cooling in subwavelength atomic arrays

Oriol Rubies-Bigorda, Raphael Holzinger, Ana Asenjo-Garcia +6

Subwavelength atomic arrays feature strong light-induced dipole-dipole interactions, resulting in subradiant collective resonances characterized by narrowed linewidths. In this wor…

Spin-Controlled Quantum Interference of Levitated Nanorotors

Cosimo C. Rusconi, Maxime Perdriat, Gabriel Hétet +2

We describe how to prepare an electrically levitated nanodiamond in a superposition of orientations via microwave driving of a single embedded nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center. Suitabl…

Exploiting the Photonic Non-linearity of Free Space Subwavelength Arrays of Atoms

Cosimo C. Rusconi, Tao Shi, J. Ignacio Cirac

Ordered ensembles of atoms, such as atomic arrays, exhibit distinctive features from their disordered counterpart. In particular, while collective modes in disordered ensembles sho…

Stability of a Magnetically Levitated Nanomagnet in Vacuum: Effects of Gas and Magnetization Damping

Katja Kustura, Vanessa Wachter, Adrián E. Rubio López +1

In the absence of dissipation a non-rotating magnetic nanoparticle can be stably levitated in a static magnetic field as a consequence of the spin origin of its magnetization. Here…

State estimation: direct state measurement vs. tomography

Lorenzo Maccone, Cosimo C. Rusconi

We compare direct state measurement (DST or weak state tomography) to conventional state reconstruction (tomography) through accurate Monte-Carlo simulations. We show that DST is s…
