Single-Atom Microscopy of Dipolar Fermi Gases
Abstract
This final report summarizes our accomplishments over the four years of support under this grant. The first area of research focuses on the realization of Rydberg dressed Fermi gases in optical lattices. These are itinerant many-body quantum systems with strong long-range interactions that can be used as quantum simulators for a wide range of Hamiltonians that lead to interesting equilibrium phases and novel quantum dynamics. The second area of research relates to the implementation of an imaging technique based on Raman sideband cooling in an optical lattice that enables high-fidelity detection of single atoms on individual sites of the lattice. Using quantum gas microscopy, we characterized the interaction potentials of Rydberg dressed atoms using many-body Ramsey interferometry, explored the lifetime of mesoscopic samples of Rydberg dressed atoms and studied the quench dynamics in this platform revealing the interplay between motional and interaction effects.
