Valence Bond Entanglement and Fluctuations in Random Singlet Phases

, 2011
The ground state of the uniform antiferromagnetic spin-1/2 Heisenberg chain can be viewed as a strongly fluctuating liquid of valence bonds, while in disordered chains these bonds lock into random singlet states on long length scales.

Exciton-Polariton scattering for defect detection in cold atom Optical Lattices

, 2007
We study the effect of defects in the Mott insulator phase of ultracold atoms in an optical lattice on the dynamics of resonant excitations. Defects, which can either be empty sites in a Mott insulator state with one atom per site or a singly occupied ...
