Controlling and Detecting Spin Correlations of Ultracold Atoms in Optical lattices

Stefan Trotzky, Yu-Ao Chen, Ute Schnorrberger +2

We report on the controlled creation of a valence bond state of delocalized effective-spin singlet and triplet dimers by means of a bichromatic optical superlattice. We demonstrate…

Electromagnetically Induced Transparency and Light Storage in an Atomic Mott Insulator

U. Schnorrberger, J. D. Thompson, S. Trotzky +4

We experimentally demonstrate electromagnetically induced transparency and light storage with ultracold 87Rb atoms in a Mott insulating state in a three dimensional optical lattice…

Expansion of a quantum gas released from an optical lattice

F. Gerbier, S. Trotzky, S. Foelling +9

We analyze the interference pattern produced by ultracold atoms released from an optical lattice. Such interference patterns are commonly interpreted as the momentum distributions…

Counting atoms using interaction blockade in an optical superlattice

P. Cheinet, S. Trotzky, M. Feld +4

We report on the observation of an interaction blockade effect for ultracold atoms in optical lattices, analogous to Coulomb blockade observed in mesoscopic solid state systems. Wh…

Single Particle Tunneling in Strongly Driven Double Well Potentials

E. Kierig, U. Schnorrberger, A. Schietinger +2

We report on the first direct observation of coherent control of single particle tunneling in a strongly driven double well potential. In our setup atoms propagate in a periodic ar…

Time-resolved Observation and Control of Superexchange Interactions with Ultracold Atoms in Optical Lattices

S. Trotzky, P. Cheinet, S. Fölling +7

Quantum mechanical superexchange interactions form the basis of quantum magnetism in strongly correlated electronic media. We report on the direct measurement of superexchange inte…
