Spin Transport in a Mott Insulator of Ultracold Fermions
Matthew A. Nichols, Lawrence W. Cheuk, Melih Okan +6
Strongly correlated materials are expected to feature unconventional transport properties, such that charge, spin, and heat conduction are potentially independent probes of the dyn…
Observation of Spatial Charge and Spin Correlations in the 2D Fermi-Hubbard Model
Lawrence W. Cheuk, Matthew A. Nichols, Katherine R. Lawrence +7
Strong electron correlations lie at the origin of transformative phenomena such as colossal magneto-resistance and high-temperature superconductivity. Already near room temperature…
Observation of 2D fermionic Mott insulators of K with single-site resolution
Lawrence W. Cheuk, Matthew A. Nichols, Katherine R. Lawrence +3
We report on the site-resolved observation of characteristic states of the two-dimensional repulsive Fermi-Hubbard model, using ultracold K atoms in an optical lattice. By v…
A Quantum Gas Microscope for Fermionic Atoms
Lawrence W. Cheuk, Matthew A. Nichols, Melih Okan +5
Strongly interacting fermions define the properties of complex matter at all densities, from atomic nuclei to modern solid state materials and neutron stars. Ultracold atomic Fermi…
