Spatial correlations of photons interacting via transverse Rydberg blockade

Bankim Chandra Das, Daniil Svirskiy, Matthias Metternich +3

We develop a theory of the transverse spatial dynamics of two interacting photons in a Rydberg nonlinear medium. Extending the well-studied one-dimensional case, we explore both lo…

Revealing electron-ytterbium interactions through Rydberg molecular spectroscopy

Tangi Legrand, Xin Wang, Milena Simić +5

Divalent atoms have emerged as powerful alternatives to alkalis in ultracold atom platforms, offering unique advantages arising from their two-electron structure. Among these speci…

Entanglement of mechanical oscillators mediated by a Rydberg tweezer chain

Cedric Wind, Chris Nill, Julia Gamper +5

Mechanical systems provide a unique test bed for studying quantum phenomena at macroscopic length scales. However, realizing quantum states that feature quantum correlations among…

Magic running- and standing-wave optical traps for Rydberg atoms

Lukas Ahlheit, Chris Nill, Daniil Svirskiy +6

Magic trapping of ground and Rydberg states, which equalizes the AC Stark shifts of these two levels, enables increased ground-to-Rydberg state coherence times. We measure via phot…

Two-color Ytterbium MOT in a compact dual-chamber setup

Xin Wang, Thilina Muthu-Arachchige, Tangi Legrand +4

We present an experimental scheme for producing ultracold Ytterbium atoms in a compact dual-chamber setup. A dispenser-loaded two-dimensional (2D) magneto-optical trap (MOT) using…
