Ratchet Effect in the Quantum Kicked Rotor and its Destruction by Dynamical Localization
Clément Hainaut, Adam Rançon, Jean-François Clément +4
We study experimentally a quantum kicked rotor with broken parity symmetry, supporting a ratchet effect due to the presence of a classical accelerator mode. We show that the short-…
Controlling symmetry and localization with an artificial gauge field in a disordered quantum system
Clément Hainaut, Isam Manai, Jean-François Clément +6
Anderson localization, the absence of diffusion in disordered media, draws its origins from the destructive interference between multiple scattering paths. The localization propert…
Experimental Observation of Two-Dimensional Anderson Localization with the Atomic Kicked Rotor
Isam Manai, Jean-François Clément, Radu Chicireanu +4
Dimension 2 is expected to be the lower critical dimension for Anderson localization in a time reversal-invariant disordered quantum system. Using an atomic quasiperiodic kicked ro…
Experimental Test of Universality of the Anderson Transition
Matthias Lopez, Jean-François Clément, Pascal Szriftgiser +2
We experimentally test the universality of the Anderson three dimensional metal-insulator transition. Nine sets of parameters controlling the microscopic details of this second ord…
Atomic Dipole Traps with Amplified Spontaneous Emission: A Proposal
Jean-François Clément, Véronique Zehnlé, Jean Claude Garreau +1
We propose what we believe to be a novel type of optical source for ultra-cold atomic Far Off-Resonance optical-dipole Traps (FORTs). The source is based on an Erbium Amplified Spo…
