Nonequilibrium steady state in a large magneto-optical trap
Marius Gaudesius, Yong-Chang Zhang, Thomas Pohl +2
Considering light-mediated long-range interactions between cold atoms in a magneto-optical trap (MOT), we present numerical evidence of a nonequilibrium steady state (NESS) for suf…
Three-dimensional simulations of spatiotemporal instabilities in a magneto-optical trap
M. Gaudesius, Y. -C. Zhang, T. Pohl +2
Large clouds of atoms in a magneto-optical trap (MOT) are known to exhibit spatiotemporal instabilities when the frequency of the trapping lasers comes close to the atomic resonanc…
Nonlinear absorption in interacting Rydberg electromagnetically-induced-transparency spectra on two-photon resonance
Annika Tebben, Clément Hainaut, Andre Salzinger +6
We experimentally investigate the nonlinear transmission spectrum of coherent light fields propagating through a Rydberg EIT medium with strong atomic interactions. In contrast to…
Instability threshold in a large balanced magneto-optical trap
Marius Gaudesius, Robin Kaiser, Guillaume Labeyrie +2
Large clouds of cold atoms prepared in a magneto-optical trap can develop spatio-temporal instabilities when the frequency of the trapping lasers is brought close to the atomic res…
Blockade-induced resonant enhancement of the optical nonlinearity in a Rydberg medium
Annika Tebben, Clément Hainaut, Valentin Walther +4
We predict a resonant enhancement of the nonlinear optical response of an interacting Rydberg gas under conditions of electromagnetically induced transparency. The enhancement orig…
Quantum gas microscopy of Rydberg macrodimers
Simon Hollerith, Johannes Zeiher, Jun Rui +6
A microscopic understanding of molecules is essential for many fields of natural sciences but their tiny size hinders direct optical access to their constituents. Rydberg macrodime…
