Phase Coherence of Strongly Interacting Bosons in One-Dimensional Optical Lattices
R. Vatré, G. Morettini, J. Beugnon +3
Ultracold Bose gases in one-dimensional optical lattices constitute an important benchmark problem in the study of strongly interacting many-body quantum phases. Here we present a…
Many-Body Dephasing by Hole Motion in a Spin-Orbit-Coupled Mott Insulator
A. Ghermaoui, M. Bosch Aguilera, R. Bouganne +4
We use Ramsey interferometry to study spin dynamics in the strongly interacting regime of spin-orbit-coupled quantum gases in one-dimensional optical lattices. We observe an intrin…
Resonant light scattering by a slab of ultracold atoms
R. Vatré, R. Lopes, J. Beugnon +1
A gas of ultracold atoms probed with laser light is a nearly-ideal experimental realization of a medium of resonant point-like scatterers, a key problem from condensed matter to bi…
Dynamics of spatial phase coherence in a dissipative Bose-Hubbard atomic system
Rémy Vatré, Raphaël Bouganne, Manel Bosch Aguilera +4
We investigate the loss of spatial coherence of one-dimensional bosonic gases in optical lattices illuminated by a near-resonant excitation laser. Because the atoms recoil in a ran…
