Quantum Machine Using Cold Atoms
For a machine to be useful in practice, it preferably has to meet two requirements: namely, (i) to be able to perform work under a load and (ii) its operational regime should ideally not depend on the time at which the machine is switched-on. We devise a minimal setup, consisting of two atoms only, for an ac-driven quantum motor which fulfills both these conditions. Explicitly, the motor consis...
متن کاملQuantum transport of cold atoms
Cold atom devices permit the exploration of novel forms of quantum transport that are difficult or impossible to realize in traditional electron transport setups. Under the action of an external driving, long-term coherent atom motion can be quite sensitive to the initial switching conditions even in the presence of interactions [1]. If the driving violates spaceand time-inversion symmetry simu...
متن کاملGravity-sensitive quantum dynamics in cold atoms.
We subject a falling cloud of cold cesium atoms to periodic kicks from a sinusoidal potential created by a vertical standing wave of laser light. By controllably accelerating the potential, we show quantum accelerator mode dynamics to be highly sensitive to the effective gravitational acceleration when close to specific, resonant values. This quantum sensitivity to a control parameter is remini...
متن کاملA quantum trampoline for ultra-cold atoms
We have observed the interferometric suspension of a free-falling Bose-Einstein condensate periodically submitted to multiple-order diffraction by a vertical 1D standing wave. The various diffracted matter waves recombine coherently, resulting in high contrast interference in the number of atoms detected at constant height. For long suspension times, multiple-wave interference is revealed throu...
متن کاملNovel Quantum Chaotic Dynamics in Cold Atoms
We discuss recent experimental and theoretical investigations of quantum dynamics in periodically kicked chaotic systems. These investigations are centred on a modified version of the classic -kicked rotor, as realized using laser-cooled caesium atoms. Dramatic phenomena, principally quantum accelerator modes, have been observed and these have inspired novel theoretical approaches to quantum ch...
