Drastically enhanced high-order harmonic generation from endofullerenes

T. Topcu, E. A. Bleda, Z. Altun

Dynamically rich nature of the high-order harmonic generation process lends itself to a variety of ways to increase photon yield and extend the harmonic cut-off frequency. We show…

Quantum network of neutral atom clocks

P. Kómár, T. Topcu, E. M. Kessler +4

We propose a protocol for creating a fully entangled GHZ-type state of neutral atoms in spatially separated optical atomic clocks. In our scheme, local operations make use of the s…

Possibility of triple magic trapping of clock and Rydberg states of divalent atoms in optical lattices

T. Topcu, A. Derevianko

We predict the possibility of "triply-magic" optical lattice trapping of neutral divalent atoms. In such a lattice, the and clock states and an addition…

Effects of molecular resonances on Rydberg blockade

Andrei Derevianko, Péter Kómár, Turker Topcu +2

We study the effect of resonances associated with complex molecular interaction of Rydberg atoms on Rydberg blockade. We show that densely-spaced molecular potentials between doubl…

Tuning long-range interactions in Sr Rydberg atoms: the effect of series perturbations

Turker Topcu, Andrei Derevianko

We investigate the effect of series perturbation on the second-order dipole-dipole interactions between strontium atoms in the and Rydberg states as…

Divalent Rydberg atoms in optical lattices: intensity landscape and magic trapping

Turker Topcu, Andrei Derevianko

We develop a theoretical understanding of trapping divalent Rydberg atoms in optical lattices. Because the size of the Rydberg electron cloud can be comparable to the scale of spat…

Phase-dependent interference fringes in the wavelength scaling of harmonic efficiency

I. Yavuz, E. A. Bleda, Z. Altun +1

We describe phase-dependent wavelength scaling of high-order harmonic generation efficiency driven by ultra-short laser fields in the mid-infrared. We employ both numerical solutio…

High-order harmonic generation from Rydberg states at fixed Keldysh parameter

E. A. Bleda, I. Yavuz, Z. Altun +1

Because the commonly adopted viewpoint that the Keldysh parameter determines the dynamical regime in strong field physics has long been demonstrated to be misleading, one can a…

Dynamic polarizability of Rydberg atoms: Applicability of near-free electron approximation, gauge invariance and the Dirac sea

Turker Topcu, Andrei Derevianko

Ponderomotive energy shifts experienced by Rydberg atoms in optical fields are known to be well approximated by the classical quiver energy of a free electron. We examine such ener…

Tune-out wavelengths and landscape modulated polarizabilities of alkali Rydberg atoms in infrared optical lattices

Turker Topcu, Andrei Derevianko

Intensity modulated optical lattice potentials can change sign for an alkali metal Rydberg atom, and the atoms are not always attracted to intensity minima in optical lattices with…

Intensity landscape and the possibility of magic trapping of alkali Rydberg atoms in infrared optical lattices

Turker Topcu, Andrei Derevianko

Motivated by compelling advances in manipulating cold Rydberg (Ry) atoms in optical traps, we consider the effect of large extent of Ry electron wave function on trapping potential…
