Kibble-Zurek exponent and chiral transition of the period-4 phase of Rydberg chains

Chains of Rydberg atoms have emerged as an amazing playground to study quantum physics in 1D. Playing with inter-atomic distances and laser detuning, one can in particular explore the commensurate-incommensurate transition out of density waves through the ...

Dynamics of soliton self-injection locking in optical microresonators

Tobias Kippenberg, Junqiu Liu, Wenle Weng, Andrey Voloshin

Soliton microcombs constitute chip-scale optical frequency combs, and have the potential to impact a myriad of applications from frequency synthesis and telecommunications to astronomy. The demonstration of soliton formation via self-injection locking of t ...

Cavity-assisted preparation and detection of a unitary Fermi gas

Jean-Philippe Brantut, Victor Youri Helson, Kevin Etienne Robert Roux, Hideki Konishi

We report on the fast production and weakly destructive detection of a Fermi gas with tunable interactions in a high finesse cavity. The cavity is used both with far off-resonant light to create a deep optical dipole trap, and with near-resonant light to r ...

Contactless optical trapping and manipulation of nanoparticles utilizing SIBA mechanism and EDL force

Mahdi Sahafi

On-chip optical tweezers based on evanescent fields overcome the diffraction limit of the free-space optical tweezers and can be a promising technique for developing lab-on-a-chip devices. While such trapping allows for low-cost and precise manipulation, i ...

Development of a monolithic near-field optomechanical system

Ryan Daniel Schilling

In the same year as Einstein's annus mirabilis, English engineer and physicist John Flemming patented the first rectifying diode, which he called the "Flemming valve". Einstein's work on the photoelectric effect would change our understanding of the nature ...

All-fiber versatile laser frequency reference at 2μm for CO2 space-borne lidar applications

Luc Thévenaz, Kenny Hey Tow

We present a frequency stabilized laser at 2051 nm based on a versatile all-fibered stabilization setup. A modulation sideband locking technique is implemented to lock the laser at a controlled frequency detuning from the center of the CO2 R(30) transition ...

Detuning-dependent properties and dispersion-induced instabilities of temporal dissipative Kerr solitons in optical microresonators

Tobias Kippenberg, Maxim Karpov, Hairun Guo, Erwan Guillaume Albert Lucas, John David Jost

Temporal-dissipative Kerr solitons are self-localized light pulses sustained in driven nonlinear optical resonators. Their realization in microresonators has enabled compact sources of coherent optical frequency combs as well as the study of dissipative so ...

Intermode Breather Solitons in Optical Microresonators

Tobias Kippenberg, Michael Wolfgang Geiselmann, Junqiu Liu, Maxim Karpov, Hairun Guo, Martin Hubert Peter Pfeiffer, Erwan Guillaume Albert Lucas, Miles Henry Anderson, John David Jost

Dissipative solitons can be found in a variety of systems resulting from the double balance between dispersion and nonlinearity, as well as gain and loss. Recently, they have been observed to spontaneously form in Kerr nonlinear microresonators driven by a ...
