Designing spin-1 lattice models using polar molecules
Gavin K. Brennen, Andrea Micheli, Peter Zoller
We describe how to design a large class of always on spin-1 interactions between polar molecules trapped in an optical lattice. The spin degrees of freedom correspond to the hyperf…
Repulsively bound atom pairs: Overview, Simulations and Links
A. J. Daley, A. Kantian, H. P. Büchler +6
We review the basic physics of repulsively bound atom pairs in an optical lattice, which were recently observed in the laboratory, including the theory and the experimental impleme…
Strongly correlated 2D quantum phases with cold polar molecules: controlling the shape of the interaction potential
H. P. Büchler, E. Demler, M. Lukin +4
We discuss techniques to tune and shape the long-range part of the interaction potentials in quantum gases of polar molecules by dressing rotational excitations with static and mic…
Dark state cooling of atoms by superfluid immersion
A. Griessner, A. J. Daley, S. R. Clark +2
We propose and analyse a scheme to cool atoms in an optical lattice to ultra-low temperatures within a Bloch band, and away from commensurate filling. The protocol is inspired by i…
Quantum Computation Using Vortices and Majorana Zero Modes of a + Superfluid of Fermionic Cold Atoms
Sumanta Tewari, S. Das Sarma, Chetan Nayak +2
We propose to use the recently predicted two-dimensional `weak-pairing' superfluid state of fermionic cold atoms as a platform for topological quantum computation. In…
Repulsively bound atom pairs in an optical lattice
K. Winkler, G. Thalhammer, F. Lang +6
Throughout physics, stable composite objects are usually formed via attractive forces, which allow the constituents to lower their energy by binding together. Repulsive forces sepa…
