Evolution of Fermion Pairing from Three to Two Dimensions
Ariel T. Sommer, Lawrence W. Cheuk, Mark Jen-Hao Ku +2
We follow the evolution of fermion pairing in the dimensional crossover from 3D to 2D as a strongly interacting Fermi gas of Li atoms becomes confined to a stack of two-dimensi…
Orbital excitation blockade and algorithmic cooling in quantum gases
Waseem S. Bakr, Philipp M. Preiss, M. Eric Tai +3
Interaction blockade occurs when strong interactions in a confined few-body system prevent a particle from occupying an otherwise accessible quantum state. Blockade phenomena revea…
Photon-Assisted Tunneling in a Biased Strongly Correlated Bose Gas
Ruichao Ma, M. Eric Tai, Philipp M. Preiss +3
We study the impact of coherently generated lattice photons on an atomic Mott insulator subjected to a uniform force. Analogous to an array of tunnel-coupled and biased quantum dot…
Quantum Simulation of Antiferromagnetic Spin Chains in an Optical Lattice
Jonathan Simon, Waseem S. Bakr, Ruichao Ma +3
Understanding exotic forms of magnetism in quantum mechanical systems is a central goal of modern condensed matter physics, with implications from high temperature superconductors…
Inducing vortices in a Bose-Einstein condensate using holographically produced light beams
Johannes F. S. Brachmann, Waseem S. Bakr, Jonathon Gillen +2
In this paper we demonstrate a technique that can create out-of-equilibrium vortex configurations with almost arbitrary charge and geometry in a Bose-Einstein condensate. We cohere…
