Spin Orbit Coupling in Periodically Driven Optical Lattices
Julian Struck, Juliette Simonet, Klaus Sengstock
We propose a method for the emulation of artificial spin orbit coupling in a system of ultracold, neutral atoms trapped in a tight-binding lattice. This scheme does not involve nea…
Non-Abelian gauge fields and topological insulators in shaken optical lattices
Philipp Hauke, Olivier Tieleman, Alessio Celi +8
Time-periodic driving like lattice shaking offers a low-demanding method to generate artificial gauge fields in optical lattices. We identify the relevant symmetries that have to b…
Tunable gauge potential for neutral and spinless particles in driven lattices
Julian Struck, Christoph Ölschläger, Malte Weinberg +6
We present a universal method to create a tunable, artificial vector gauge potential for neutral particles trapped in an optical lattice. The necessary Peierls phase of the hopping…
