Reservoir engineering with ultracold Rydberg atoms
David W. Schönleber, Christopher D. B. Bentley, Alexander Eisfeld
We apply reservoir engineering to construct a thermal environment with controllable temperature in an ultracold atomic Rydberg system. A Boltzmann distribution of the system's eige…
Non-Markovian Dynamics in Ultracold Rydberg Aggregates
M. Genkin, D. W. Schönleber, S. Wüster +1
We propose a setup of an open quantum system in which the environment can be tuned such that either Markovian or non-Markovian system dynamics can be achieved. The implementation u…
Optomechanical interactions in non-Hermitian photonic molecules
David W. Schönleber, Alexander Eisfeld, Ramy El-Ganainy
We study optomechanical interactions in non-Hermitian photonic molecules that support two photonic states and one acoustic mode. The nonlinear steady-state solutions and their line…
Quantum simulation of energy transport with embedded Rydberg aggregates
D. W. Schönleber, A. Eisfeld, M. Genkin +2
We show that an array of ultracold Rydberg atoms embedded in a laser driven background gas can serve as an aggregate for simulating exciton dynamics and energy transport with a con…
Collective excitation of Rydberg-atom ensembles beyond the enhancement
Martin Gärttner, Shannon Whitlock, David W. Schönleber +1
In an ensemble of laser-driven atoms involving strongly interacting Rydberg states, the excitation probability is usually strongly suppressed. In contrast, here we identify a regim…
Coherent versus incoherent excitation dynamics in dissipative many-body Rydberg systems
David W. Schönleber, Martin Gärttner, Jörg Evers
We study the impact of dephasing on the excitation dynamics of a cloud of ultracold two-level Rydberg atoms for both resonant and off-resonant laser excitation, using the wave func…
Full counting statistics of laser excited Rydberg aggregates in a one-dimensional geometry
H. Schempp, G. Günter, M. Robert-de-Saint-Vincent +8
We experimentally study the full counting statistics of few-body Rydberg aggregates excited from a quasi-one-dimensional Rydberg gas. We measure asymmetric excitation spectra and i…
