Emergent pair localization in a many-body quantum spin system
Titus Franz, Sebastian Geier, Adrian Braemer +8
Understanding how closed quantum systems dynamically approach thermal equilibrium presents a major unresolved problem in statistical physics. Generically, non-integrable quantum sy…
A stationary Rydberg polariton
Annika Tebben, Clément Hainaut, Andre Salzinger +4
We propose a novel scheme for coupling a Rydberg state to a stationary light polariton, based on a dual-V level scheme. We investigate the properties of the resulting stationary Ry…
Microwave-engineering of programmable XXZ Hamiltonians in arrays of Rydberg atoms
P. Scholl, H. J. Williams, G. Bornet +13
We use the resonant dipole-dipole interaction between Rydberg atoms and a periodic external microwave field to engineer XXZ spin Hamiltonians with tunable anisotropies. The atoms a…
Floquet Hamiltonian Engineering of an Isolated Many-Body Spin System
Sebastian Geier, Nithiwadee Thaicharoen, Clément Hainaut +6
Controlling interactions is the key element for quantum engineering of many-body systems. Using time-periodic driving, a naturally given many-body Hamiltonian of a closed quantum s…
Glassy quantum dynamics of disordered Ising spins
Philipp Schultzen, Titus Franz, Sebastian Geier +6
We study the out-of-equilibrium dynamics in the quantum Ising model with power-law interactions and positional disorder. For arbitrary dimension and interaction range …
Nonlinear absorption in interacting Rydberg electromagnetically-induced-transparency spectra on two-photon resonance
Annika Tebben, Clément Hainaut, Andre Salzinger +6
We experimentally investigate the nonlinear transmission spectrum of coherent light fields propagating through a Rydberg EIT medium with strong atomic interactions. In contrast to…
Blockade-induced resonant enhancement of the optical nonlinearity in a Rydberg medium
Annika Tebben, Clément Hainaut, Valentin Walther +4
We predict a resonant enhancement of the nonlinear optical response of an interacting Rydberg gas under conditions of electromagnetically induced transparency. The enhancement orig…
