Two-dimensional shelving spectroscopy of ultraviolet ground state transitions in dysprosium

Kevin S. H. Ng, Paul Uerlings, Fiona Hellstern +5

The open inner-shell electronic structure of lanthanides with large magnetic moments gives rise to a rich spectrum of transitions available for laser cooling, trapping, and coheren…

Decoupled sound and amplitude modes in trapped dipolar supersolids

Jens Hertkorn, Philipp Stürmer, Koushik Mukherjee +7

We theoretically investigate elementary excitations of dipolar quantum gases across the superfluid to supersolid phase transition in a toroidal trap. We show how decoupled first so…

Valley population of donor states in highly strained silicon

B. Voisin, K. S. H. Ng, J. Salfi +13

Strain is extensively used to controllably tailor the electronic properties of materials. In the context of indirect band-gap semiconductors such as silicon, strain lifts the valle…

Pattern Formation in Quantum Ferrofluids: from Supersolids to Superglasses

J. Hertkorn, J. -N. Schmidt, M. Guo +7

Pattern formation is a ubiquitous phenomenon observed in nonlinear and out-of-equilibrium systems. In equilibrium, quantum ferrofluids formed from ultracold atoms were recently sho…

Supersolidity in Two-Dimensional Trapped Dipolar Droplet Arrays

J. Hertkorn, J. -N. Schmidt, M. Guo +8

We theoretically investigate the ground states and the spectrum of elementary excitations across the superfluid to droplet crystallization transition of an oblate dipolar Bose-Eins…

Roton Excitations in an Oblate Dipolar Quantum Gas

Jan-Niklas Schmidt, Jens Hertkorn, Mingyang Guo +7

We observe signatures of radial and angular roton excitations around a droplet crystallization transition in dipolar Bose-Einstein condensates. In situ measurements are used to cha…

Density Fluctuations across the Superfluid-Supersolid Phase Transition in a Dipolar Quantum Gas

J. Hertkorn, J. -N. Schmidt, F. Böttcher +8

Phase transitions share the universal feature of enhanced fluctuations near the transition point. Here we show that density fluctuations reveal how a Bose-Einstein condensate of di…

New states of matter with fine-tuned interactions: quantum droplets and dipolar supersolids

Fabian Böttcher, Jan-Niklas Schmidt, Jens Hertkorn +5

Quantum fluctuations can stabilize Bose-Einstein condensates (BEC) against the mean-field collapse. Stabilization of the condensate has been observed in quantum degenerate Bose-Bos…
