Practical scheme for a light-induced gauge field in an atomic Bose gas
Kenneth J. Günter, Marc Cheneau, Tarik Yefsah +2
We propose a scheme to generate an Abelian gauge field in an atomic gas using two crossed laser beams. If the internal atomic state follows adiabatically the eigenstates of the ato…
Geometric potentials in quantum optics: A semi-classical interpretation
Marc Cheneau, Steffen Patrick Rath, Tarik Yefsah +3
We propose a semi-classical interpretation of the geometric scalar and vector potentials that arise due to Berry's phase when an atom moves slowly in a light field. Starting from t…
Fermionic atoms with tunable interactions in a 3D optical lattice
Thilo Stöferle, Henning Moritz, Christian Schori +3
We report on the realization of a quantum degenerate atomic Fermi gas in an optical lattice. Fermi surfaces of noninteracting fermions are studied in a three-dimensional lattice. U…
