Experimental observation of strong field stabilization
Anna R. Dardia, Spencer Walker, Yifei Bai +3
Bound quantum states such as atoms can be torn apart by strong oscillating fields. A natural expectation is that stronger fields lead to more certain destruction. In contradiction…

Exploring light-induced phases of 2D materials in a modulated 1D quasicrystal
Yifei Bai, Anna R. Dardia, Toshihiko Shimasaki +1
Light-induced quantum phases offer the potential for simple and powerful tuning of material properties. For example, simply illuminating 2D materials in the integer quantum Hall re…

Measuring a localization phase diagram controlled by the interplay of disorder and driving
Peter Dotti, Yifei Bai, Toshihiko Shimasaki +2
The interplay of various localizing mechanisms is a central topic of modern condensed matter physics. In this work we experimentally explore the interplay between quasiperiodic dis…
