Experimental Demonstration of the Timelike Unruh Effect with a Trapped-Ion System
Zhenghao Luo, Yi Li, Xingyu Zhao +3
The Unruh effect predicts that an accelerated observer perceives the Minkowski vacuum as a thermal bath, but its direct observation requires extreme accelerations beyond current ex…
Experimental Proposal on Non-Abelian Aharonov-Bohm Caging Effect with a Single Trapped Ion
Zhiyuan Liu, Wanchao Yao, Sai Li +4
In the lattice system, when the synthetic flux reaches a phase along a closed loop under the synthetic gauge field, destructive interference occurs and gives rise to the locali…
Experimental realization and synchronization of a quantum van der Pol oscillator
Yi Li, Zihan Xie, Xiaodong Yang +8
Classical self-sustained oscillators, that generate periodic motion without periodic external forcing, are ubiquitous in science and technology. The realization of nonclassical sel…
Experimental observation of parity-symmetry-protected phenomena in the quantum Rabi model with a trapped ion
Xingyu Zhao, Qian Bin, Waner Hou +5
Symmetry is crucial for gaining insights into the fundamental properties of physical systems, bringing possibilities in studying exotic phenomena such as quantum phase transitions…
Programmable simulation of high-order exceptional point with a trapped ion
Yue Li, Yang Wu, Yuqi Zhou +9
The nontrivial degeneracies in non-Hermitian systems, exceptional points (EPs), have attracted extensive attention due to intriguing phenomena. Compared with commonly observed seco…
