Phase-Imprinting of Bose-Einstein Condensates with Rydberg Impurities
Rick Mukherjee, Cenap Ates, Weibin Li +1
We show how the phase profile of Bose-Einstein condensates can be engineered through its in- teraction with localized Rydberg excitations. The interaction is made controllable and…
Generalised Dicke non-equilibrium dynamics in trapped ions
Sam Genway, Weibin Li, Cenap Ates +2
We explore trapped ions as a setting to investigate non-equilibrium phases in a generalised Dicke model of dissipative spins coupled to phonon modes. We find a rich dynamical phase…
Exciton dynamics in emergent Rydberg lattices
S. Bettelli, D. Maxwell, T. Fernholz +3
The dynamics of excitons in a one-dimensional ensemble with partial spatial order are studied. During optical excitation, cold Rydberg atoms spontaneously organize into regular spa…
Non-adiabatic motional effects and dissipative blockade for Rydberg atoms excited from optical lattices or microtraps
W. Li, C. Ates, I. Lesanovsky
The laser-excitation of Rydberg atoms in ultracold gases is often described assuming that the atomic motion is frozen during the excitation time. We show that this frozen gas appro…
Inhomogeneities and impurities in a dense one-dimensional Rydberg lattice gas
S. Ji, V. Sanghai, C. Ates +1
We consider a dense one-dimensional laser-driven Rydberg lattice gas with perfect nearest-neighbor blockade. The ground state of this system can be found analytically in certain pa…
Fast and Quasideterministic Single Ion Source from a Dipole-Blockaded Atomic Ensemble
C. Ates, I. Lesanovsky, C. S. Adams +1
We present a fast and Quasideterministic protocol for the production of single ions and electrons from a cloud of laser cooled atoms. The approach is based on a two-step process wh…
