Nonlinear dynamics in a synthetic momentum-state lattice

FA An, B Sundar, J Hou, XW Luo, EJ Meier, C Zhang… - Physical review …, 2021 - APS
The scope of analog simulation in atomic, molecular, and optical systems has expanded
greatly over the past decades. Recently, the idea of synthetic dimensions—in which …

Interaction-enhanced group velocity of bosons in the flat band of an optical kagome lattice

TH Leung, MN Schwarz, SW Chang, CD Brown… - Physical Review Letters, 2020 - APS
Geometric frustration of particle motion in a kagome lattice causes the single-particle band
structure to have a flat s-orbital band. We probe this band structure by placing a Bose …

Correlated dynamics in a synthetic lattice of momentum states

FA An, EJ Meier, J Ang'ong'a, B Gadway - Physical review letters, 2018 - APS
We study the influence of atomic interactions on quantum simulations in momentum-space
lattices (MSLs), where driven transitions between discrete momentum states mimic transport …

Ramsey interferometry with trapped motional quantum states

D Hu, L Niu, S Jin, X Chen, G Dong… - Communications …, 2018 - nature.com
Ramsey interferometers using internal electronic or nuclear states find wide applications in
science and engineering. We develop a matter wave Ramsey interferometer for trapped …

Coherent atom transport via enhanced shortcuts to adiabaticity: Double-well optical lattice

SH Hauck, VM Stojanović - Physical Review Applied, 2022 - APS
Theoretical studies of coherent atom transport have as yet mainly been restricted to one-
dimensional model systems with harmonic trapping potentials. Here we investigate this …

Asymmetric Loop Spectra and Unbroken Phase Protection due to Nonlinearities in -Symmetric Periodic Potentials

Y Zhang, Z Chen, B Wu, T Busch, VV Konotop - Physical Review Letters, 2021 - APS
We demonstrate that the interplay between a nonlinearity and PT symmetry in a periodic
potential results in peculiar features of nonlinear periodic solutions. These include …

Realization of a floquet-engineered moat band for ultracold atoms

CA Bracamontes, J Maslek, JV Porto - Physical Review Letters, 2022 - APS
We experimentally engineer a moatlike dispersion in a system of weakly interacting bosons.
By periodically modulating the amplitude of a checkerboard optical lattice, the two lowest …

Nonexponential tunneling due to mean-field-induced swallowtails

Q Guan, MKH Ome, TM Bersano, S Mossman… - Physical review …, 2020 - APS
Typically, energy levels change without bifurcating in response to a change of a control
parameter. Bifurcations can lead to loops or swallowtails in the energy spectrum. The …

Nonlinear dynamics of a spin-orbit-coupled Bose-Einstein condensate

Y Zhang, Z Gui, Y Chen - Physical Review A, 2019 - APS
Single-particle dynamics of a spin-orbit-coupled Bose-Einstein condensate has recently
been investigated in experiments that explore the physics of Landau-Zener tunneling and of …
