In situ imaging of the thermal de Broglie wavelength in an ultracold Bose gas
Jinggang Xiang, Enid Cruz-Colón, Candice C. Chua +4
We report the first in situ observation of density fluctuations on the scale of the thermal de Broglie wavelength in an ultracold gas of bosons. Bunching of Rb atoms in a qu…
Preparation of the spin-Mott state: a spinful Mott insulator of repulsively bound pairs
Julius de Hond, Jinggang Xiang, Woo Chang Chung +5
We observe and study a special ground state of bosons with two spin states in an optical lattice: the spin-Mott insulator, a state that consists of repulsively bound pairs which is…
Tunable Single-Ion Anisotropy in Spin-1 Models Realized with Ultracold Atoms
Woo Chang Chung, Julius de Hond, Jinggang Xiang +2
Mott insulator plateaus in optical lattices are a versatile platform to study spin physics. Using sites occupied by two bosons with an internal degree of freedom, we realize a unia…
