Journal ArticleDOI
Realization of the Hofstadter Hamiltonian with ultracold atoms in optical lattices.
Monika Aidelsburger,Marcos Atala,Michael Lohse,Julio T. Barreiro,Belén Paredes,Immanuel Bloch +5 more
TL;DR: It is shown that for two atomic spin states with opposite magnetic moments, the experimental implementation of an optical lattice that allows for the generation of large homogeneous and tunable artificial magnetic fields with ultracold atoms naturally realizes the time-reversal-symmetric Hamiltonian underlying the quantum spin Hall effect.
Journal ArticleDOI
Direct measurement of the Zak phase in topological Bloch bands
Marcos Atala,Monika Aidelsburger,Julio T. Barreiro,Dmitry A. Abanin,Takuya Kitagawa,Takuya Kitagawa,Eugene Demler,Immanuel Bloch +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the topological properties of Bloch bands in one-dimensional optical lattices were investigated using Bloch oscillations and Ramsey interferometry, and the Zak phase obtained by cold atoms moving across the Brillouin zone was extracted.
Journal ArticleDOI
Measuring the Chern number of Hofstadter bands with ultracold bosonic atoms
Monika Aidelsburger,Michael Lohse,Christian Schweizer,Marcos Atala,Julio T. Barreiro,Sylvain Nascimbene,Nigel R. Cooper,Immanuel Bloch,Nathan Goldman,Nathan Goldman +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the quantum Hall effect conductance was measured in ultracold atoms subject to artificial gauge fields, and the Chern number was found to be associated with topological phases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental realization of strong effective magnetic fields in an optical lattice.
Monika Aidelsburger,Marcos Atala,Sylvain Nascimbene,Stefan Trotzky,Yu-Ao Chen,Immanuel Bloch +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used Raman-assisted tunneling in an optical superlattice to generate large tunable effective magnetic fields for ultracold atoms, where the accumulated phase shift by an atom is equivalent to the Aharonov-Bohm phase of a charged particle exposed to a staggered magnetic field of large magnitude.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Thouless quantum pump with ultracold bosonic atoms in an optical superlattice
TL;DR: In this article, the idea of a topological charge pump with topologically protected transport has been realized with ultracold bosonic atoms, where the quantized motion of charge due to the slow cyclic variation of a periodic potential has been quantized.
