Ratchet Effect in the Quantum Kicked Rotor and its Destruction by Dynamical Localization
Clément Hainaut, Adam Rançon, Jean-François Clément +4
We study experimentally a quantum kicked rotor with broken parity symmetry, supporting a ratchet effect due to the presence of a classical accelerator mode. We show that the short-…
Controlling symmetry and localization with an artificial gauge field in a disordered quantum system
Clément Hainaut, Isam Manai, Jean-François Clément +6
Anderson localization, the absence of diffusion in disordered media, draws its origins from the destructive interference between multiple scattering paths. The localization propert…
Experimental Observation of Two-Dimensional Anderson Localization with the Atomic Kicked Rotor
Isam Manai, Jean-François Clément, Radu Chicireanu +4
Dimension 2 is expected to be the lower critical dimension for Anderson localization in a time reversal-invariant disordered quantum system. Using an atomic quasiperiodic kicked ro…
Differential Light Shift Cancellation in a Magnetic-Field-Insensitive Transition of Rb
R. Chicireanu, K. D. Nelson, S. Olmschenk +3
We demonstrate near-complete cancellation of the differential light shift of a two-photon magnetic-field-insensitive microwave hyperfine (clock) transition in Rb atoms trapp…
Randomized benchmarking of atomic qubits in an optical lattice
S. Olmschenk, R. Chicireanu, K. D. Nelson +1
We perform randomized benchmarking on neutral atomic quantum bits (qubits) confined in an optical lattice. Single qubit gates are implemented using microwaves, resulting in a measu…
Radio-frequency induced ground state degeneracy in a Chromium Bose-Einstein condensate
Q. Beaufils, T. Zanon, R. Chicireanu +5
We study the effect of strong radio-frequency (rf) fields on a chromium Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC), in a regime where the rf frequency is much larger than the Larmor frequency.…
