Journal ArticleDOI
Spin–orbit-coupled Bose–Einstein condensates
TL;DR: The engineered SO coupling in a neutral atomic Bose–Einstein condensate sets the stage for the realization of topological insulators in fermionic neutral atom systems and develops a many-body theory that provides quantitative agreement with the observed location of the transition.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthetic magnetic fields for ultracold neutral atoms.
Yu-Ju Lin,R. L. Compton,Karina Jimenez-Garcia,Karina Jimenez-Garcia,James V. Porto,Ian B. Spielman +5 more
TL;DR: This work experimentally realizes an optically synthesized magnetic field for ultracold neutral atoms, which is evident from the appearance of vortices in the authors' Bose–Einstein condensate, and uses a spatially dependent optical coupling between internal states of the atoms, yielding a Berry’s phase sufficient to create large synthetic magnetic fields.
Journal ArticleDOI
A synthetic electric force acting on neutral atoms
Yu-Ju Lin,R. L. Compton,Karina Jimenez-Garcia,William D. Phillips,James V. Porto,Ian B. Spielman +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that a time-varying vector potential acting on an atomic Bose-Einstein condensate can be generated that has the effect of an electric field on the atoms, even if these are neutral.
Journal ArticleDOI
Peierls substitution in an engineered lattice potential.
Karina Jimenez-Garcia,Karina Jimenez-Garcia,Lindsay LeBlanc,R. A. Williams,Matthew Beeler,A. R. Perry,Ian B. Spielman +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a one-dimensional lattice derived purely from effective Zeeman shifts resulting from a combination of Raman coupling and radio-frequency magnetic fields is described, and both the amplitude and the phase of the tunneling matrix element are controlled experimentally.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tunable spin-orbit coupling via strong driving in ultracold-atom systems.
Karina Jimenez-Garcia,Karina Jimenez-Garcia,Lindsay LeBlanc,R. A. Williams,Matthew Beeler,Chunlei Qu,Ming Gong,Chuanwei Zhang,Ian B. Spielman +8 more
TL;DR: A technique for controlling spin-orbit coupling in a two-component Bose-Einstein condensate using amplitude-modulated Raman coupling is experimentally demonstrated and theoretically analyzed.
