State resolved investigation of F?rster resonant energy transfer in collisions between polar molecules and Rydberg atoms
摘要: We perform a comprehensive investigation of F?rster resonant energy transfer in a room-temperature thermal mixture of ammonia molecules and rubidium Rydberg atoms. Fully state-resolved measurement of the Rydberg-atom populations is achieved by combining millimeter-wave state transfer with state-selective ?eld ionization. This allows aspects of the energy transfer process such as state dependence, ammonia pressure dependence, and dependence on the energy resonance condition to be investigated in detail. Our results pave the way for future quantum experiments combining polar molecules and Rydberg atoms.

Electromagnetically Induced Transparency In Rydberg Atomic Medium
摘要: Due to possessing big principal quantum number, Rydberg atom has some unique properties, for example: its radiative lifetime is long, dipole moment is large, and interaction between atoms is strong and so on. These properties make one pay attention to Rydberg atoms. In this paper we investigate the effects of Rydberg dipole-dipole interactions on electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) schemes and group velocity in three-level systems of ladder type, which provides theoretical foundation for exploring the linear and nonlinear characteristics of light in a Rydberg electromagnetically-induced-transparency medium.

Theory of interacting cavity Rydberg polaritons
摘要: Photonic materials are an emerging platform to explore quantum matter (Carusotto and Ciuti 2013 Rev. Mod. Phys. 85 299; Sommer et al 2015 arXiv:1506.00341) and quantum dynamics (Peyronel et al 2012 Nature 488 57). The development of Rydberg electromagnetically induced transparency (Weatherill et al 2008 J. Phys. B: At. Mol. Opt. Phys. 41 201002; Petrosyan et al 2011 Phys. Rev. Lett. 107 213601) provided a clear route to strong interactions between individual optical photons. In conjunction with carefully designed optical resonators, it is now possible to achieve extraordinary control of the properties of individual photons, introducing tunable gauge ?elds (Schine et al 2016 Nature 534 671) whilst imbuing the photons with mass and embedding them on curved spatial manifolds (Sommer et al 2016 New J. Phys. 18 035008). Building on work formalizing Rydberg mediated interactions between propagating photons (Gorshkov et al 2011 Phys. Rev. Lett. 107 133602; Gullans et al 2016 Phys. Rev. Lett. 117 113601), we develop a theory of interacting Rydberg polaritons in multimode optical resonators, where the strong interactions are married with tunable single particle properties to build and probe exotic matter. In the presence of strong coupling between the resonator ?eld and a Rydberg-dressed atomic ensemble, a quasiparticle called the ‘cavity Rydberg polariton’ emerges. We investigate its properties, ?nding that it inherits both the fast dynamics of its photonic constituents and the strong interactions of its atomic constituents. We develop tools to properly renormalize the interactions when polaritons approach each other, and investigate the impact of atomic motion on the coherence of multi-mode polaritons, showing that most channels for atom-polariton cross-thermalization are strongly suppressed. Finally, we propose to harness the repeated diffraction and refocusing of the optical resonator to realize interactions which are local in momentum-space. This work points the way to ef?cient modeling of polaritonic quantum materials in properly renormalized strongly interacting effective theories, thereby enabling experimental studies of photonic fractional quantum Hall ?uids and crystals (Sommer et al 2015 arXiv:1506.00341; Umucal?lar et al 2014 Phys. Rev. A 89 023803; Grusdt and Fleischhauer 2013 Phys. Rev. A 87 043628), plus photonic quantum information processors and repeaters (Jaksch et al 2000 Phys. Rev. Lett. 85 2208; Saffman et al 2010 Rev. Mod. Phys. 82 2313; Han et al 2010 Phys. Rev. A 81, 052311).

Improving the state selectivity of field ionization with quantum control
摘要: The electron signals from the ?eld ionization of two closely spaced Rydberg states of rubidium-85 are separated using quantum control. In selective ?eld ionization, the state distribution of a collection of Rydberg atoms is measured by ionizing the atoms with a ramped electric ?eld. Generally, atoms in higher energy states ionize at lower ?elds, so ionized electrons which are detected earlier in time can be correlated with higher energy Rydberg states. However, the resolution of this technique is limited by the Stark effect. As the electric ?eld is increased, the electron encounters numerous avoided Stark level crossings which split the amplitude among many states, thus broadening the time-resolved ionization signal. Previously, a genetic algorithm has been used to control the signal shape of a single Rydberg state. The present work extends this technique to separate the signals from the 34s and 33p states of rubidium-85, which are overlapped when using a simple ?eld ramp as in selective ?eld ionization.

Dynamics of two Rydbeg atoms successively interacting with a detuned thermal field
摘要: The entanglement between two identical two-level atoms successively passing a vacuum or a thermal cavity has been investigated taking into account the detuning. The cases when atoms are initially prepared in the separable two-atom or Bell type entangled atomic states have been considered. It has been shown that thermal ?eld can produce the entanglement between Rydberg atoms successively passing a cavity for all considered initial atomic states. For separable initial atomic states and vacuum state of the cavity the presence of detuning leads to decreasing of the degree of atomic entanglement. For entangled initial atomic states and vacuum state of the cavity the presence of detuning leads to decreasing of the entanglement amplitude oscillations. We have also derived that for thermal ?eld the increasing of the mean photon number leads to decreasing of the entanglement, but the entanglement increases as the detuning increases. For thermal ?eld and small detuning we have established that the e?ect of sudden death and birth of entanglement takes place and that for large detuning such e?ect vanishes. Results of the computer simulation are presented.

State-Resolved Probing of Attosecond Timescale Molecular Dipoles
摘要: We report an experimental study of iodomethane attosecond transient absorption spectroscopy (ATAS) in the region of iodine 4d core-to-valence/Rydberg excitation. Similar to previous atomic experiments, XUV-NIR delay-dependent absorbance changes reflect a light-induced phase due to an NIR-field driven AC Stark shift of the excited states, as well as pathway interferences arising from couplings between neighboring states. As a novel aspect of molecular ATAS, we observe pronounced differences between the ATAS signatures of valence and Rydberg states. While the core-to-valence transitions carry the majority of the XUV oscillator strength, the core-to-Rydberg transitions are dominantly affected by a moderately strong, non-ionizing NIR field. Our experimental findings are corroborated by ab-initio calculations and ATAS simulations.

Angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy and scanning tunnelling spectroscopy studies of the endohedral fullerene Li@C <sub/>60</sub>
摘要: Gas phase photoelectron spectroscopy (Rydberg Fingerprint Spectroscopy), TDDFT calculations and low temperature STM studies are combined to provide detailed information on the properties of the di?use, low-lying Rydberg-like SAMO states of isolated Li@C60 endohedral fullerenes. The presence of the encapsulated Li is shown by the calculations to produce a signi?cant distortion of the lowest-lying S- and P-SAMOs that is dependent on the position of the Li inside the fullerene cage. Under the high temperature conditions of the gas phase experiments, the Li is mobile and able to access di?erent positions within the cage. This is accounted for in the comparison with theory that shows a very good agreement of the photoelectron angular distributions, allowing the symmetry of the observed SAMO states to be identi?ed. When adsorbed on a metal substrate at low temperature, a strong interaction between the low-lying SAMOs and the metal substrate moves these states to energies much closer to the Fermi energy compared to the situation for empty C60 while the Li remains frozen in an o?-centre position.
