Direct reconstruction of the band structure of a 1D optical lattice with thermal atoms

Arnaud Courvoisier, Amruta Gadge, Nir Davidson

We report on a simple method to reconstruct the band structure of a 1D optical lattice using a thermal cloud with a momentum spread of about two-photon recoils. We image the moment…

Chiral states in coupled-lasers lattice by on-site complex potential

Sagie Gadasi, Geva Arwas, Igor Gershenzon +2

The ability to control the chirality of physical devices is of great scientific and technological importance, from investigations of topologically protected edge states in condense…

Controlling nonlinear interaction in a many-mode laser by tuning disorder

Yaniv Eliezer, Simon Mahler, Asher A. Friesem +2

A many-mode laser with nonlinear modal interaction could serve as a model system to study many-body physics. However, precise and continuous tuning of the interaction strength over…

Anomalous Optical Drag

Chitram Banerjee, Yakov Solomons, A. Nicholas Black +5

A moving dielectric medium can displace the optical path of light passing through it, a phenomenon known as the Fresnel-Fizeau optical drag effect. The resulting displacement is pr…

Anomalous statistics of laser-cooled atoms in dissipative optical lattices

Gadi Afek, Nir Davidson, David A. Kessler +1

Diffusion occurs in numerous physical systems throughout nature, drawing its generality from the universality of the central limit theorem. Around a century ago it was realized tha…

Phase-locking of lasers with Gaussian coupling

Andra Naresh Kumar Reddy, Simon Mahler, Alon Goldring +3

A unique approach for steady in-phase locking of lasers in an array, regardless of the array geometry, position, orientation, period or size, is presented. The approach relies on t…
