Isotope-shift spectroscopy of the and transitions in strontium
Hirokazu Miyake, Neal C. Pisenti, Peter K. Elgee +2
Isotope shift spectroscopy with narrow optical transitions provides a benchmark for atomic structure calculations and has also been proposed as a way to constrain theories predicti…
Narrow-line photoassociation spectroscopy and mass-scaling of bosonic strontium
B. J. Reschovsky, B. P. Ruzic, H. Miyake +3
Using new experimental measurements of photoassociation resonances near the intercombination transition in Sr and $^{8…
A topological quantum optics interface
Sabyasachi Barik, Aziz Karasahin, Chris Flower +5
The application of topology in optics has led to a new paradigm in developing photonic devices with robust properties against disorder. Although significant progress on topological…
Two-Dimensionally Confined Topological Edge States in Photonic Crystals
Sabyasachi Barik, Hirokazu Miyake, Wade DeGottardi +2
We present an all-dielectric photonic crystal structure that supports two-dimensionally confined helical topological edge states. The topological properties of the system are contr…
Adiabatic cooling of bosons in lattices to magnetic ordering
Johannes Schachenmayer, David M. Weld, Hirokazu Miyake +3
We suggest and analyze a new scheme to adiabatically cool bosonic atoms to picokelvin temperatures which should allow the observation of magnetic ordering via superexchange in opti…
Spin-orbit coupling and spin Hall effect for neutral atoms without spin-flips
Colin J. Kennedy, Georgios A. Siviloglou, Hirokazu Miyake +2
We propose a scheme which realizes spin-orbit coupling and the spin Hall effect for neutral atoms in optical lattices without relying on near resonant laser light to couple differe…
Realizing the Harper Hamiltonian with Laser-Assisted Tunneling in Optical Lattices
Hirokazu Miyake, Georgios A. Siviloglou, Colin J. Kennedy +2
We experimentally implement the Harper Hamiltonian for neutral particles in optical lattices using laser-assisted tunneling and a potential energy gradient provided by gravity or m…
Bragg Scattering as a Probe of Atomic Wavefunctions and Quantum Phase Transitions in Optical Lattices
Hirokazu Miyake, Georgios A. Siviloglou, Graciana Puentes +3
We have observed Bragg scattering of photons from quantum degenerate Rb atoms in a three-dimensional optical lattice. Bragg scattered light directly probes the microscopic c…
Thermometry and Refrigeration in a Two-Component Mott Insulator of Ultracold Atoms
David M. Weld, Hirokazu Miyake, Patrick Medley +2
Interesting spin Hamiltonians can be realized with ultracold atoms in a two-component Mott insulator (2CMI). It was recently demonstrated that the application of a magnetic field g…
Spin gradient demagnetization cooling of ultracold atoms
Patrick Medley, David M. Weld, Hirokazu Miyake +2
A major goal of ultracold atomic physics is quantum simulation of spin Hamiltonians in optical lattices. Progress towards this goal requires the attainment of extremely low tempera…
Spin gradient thermometry for ultracold atoms in optical lattices
David M. Weld, Patrick Medley, Hirokazu Miyake +3
We demonstrate spin gradient thermometry, a new general method of measuring the temperature of ultracold atoms in optical lattices. We realize a mixture of spins separated by a mag…
