Quantum control of molecular rotation

CP Koch, M Lemeshko, D Sugny - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2019 - APS
The angular momentum of molecules, or, equivalently, their rotation in three-dimensional
space, is ideally suited for quantum control. Molecular angular momentum is naturally …

Quantum computation and quantum simulation with ultracold molecules

SL Cornish, MR Tarbutt, KRA Hazzard - Nature Physics, 2024 - nature.com
Ultracold molecules confined in optical lattices or tweezer traps can be used to process
quantum information and simulate the behaviour of many-body quantum systems. Molecules …

[HTML][HTML] Synthetic dimensions in ultracold polar molecules

B Sundar, B Gadway, KRA Hazzard - Scientific reports, 2018 - nature.com
Synthetic dimensions alter one of the most fundamental properties in nature, the dimension
of space. They allow, for example, a real three-dimensional system to act as effectively four …

Detecting superconductivity out of equilibrium

S Paeckel, B Fauseweh, A Osterkorn, T Köhler… - Physical Review B, 2020 - APS
Recent pump-probe experiments on underdoped cuprates and similar systems suggest the
existence of a transient superconducting state above T c. This poses the question of how to …

Strings of ultracold molecules in a synthetic dimension

B Sundar, M Thibodeau, Z Wang, B Gadway… - Physical Review A, 2019 - APS
We consider ultracold polar molecules trapped in a unit-filled one-dimensional chain in real
space created with an optical lattice or a tweezer array and illuminated by microwaves that …

Phase diagram of the quantum Ising model with long-range interactions on an infinite-cylinder triangular lattice

SN Saadatmand, SD Bartlett, IP McCulloch - Physical Review B, 2018 - APS
Obtaining quantitative ground-state behavior for geometrically-frustrated quantum magnets
with long-range interactions is challenging for numerical methods. Here, we demonstrate …

Spin and density self-ordering in dynamic polarization gradients fields

N Masalaeva, W Niedenzu, F Mivehvar, H Ritsch - Physical Review Research, 2021 - APS
We study the zero-temperature quantum phase diagram for a two-component Bose-Einstein
condensate in an optical cavity. The two atomic spin states are Raman coupled by two …

Interaction-Induced Fractionalization and Topological Superconductivity in the Polar Molecules Anisotropic Model

S Fazzini, L Barbiero, A Montorsi - Physical review letters, 2019 - APS
We show that the interplay between antiferromagnetic interaction and hole motion gives rise
to a topological superconducting phase. This is captured by the one dimensional anisotropic …

Metastable ferromagnetic clusters in dissipative many-body systems of polar molecules

N Hara, M Nakagawa - Physical Review A, 2023 - APS
We investigate the effect of two-body loss due to chemical reactions on quantum magnetism
of fermionic polar molecules in an optical lattice. We show that an interplay between …

Lifshitz transition in the phase diagram of two-leg ladder systems at low filling

S Bollmann, A Osterkorn, EJ König, SR Manmana - Physical Review B, 2023 - APS
We use a combination of numerical matrix product states (MPS) and analytical approaches
to investigate the phase diagram of the two-leg tJ ladder in the region of low to intermediate …
