Performance optimization of free-space optical communication protocols based on results from FSO demonstrations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The mobile free-space optical channel mainly suffers from relatively long link outages, produced by short-term blockings of the line-of-sight (obstacles, clouds), pointing- and tracking-errors or deep signal-fades caused by index of refraction turbulence

Synthetic gauge fields for lattices with multi-orbital unit cells: routes towards a π-flux dice lattice with flat bands

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2018
We propose a general strategy for generating synthetic magnetic fields in complex lattices with non-trivial connectivity based on light–matter coupling in cold atomic gases. Our approach starts from an underlying optical flux lattice in which a synthetic

Mapping atomic trapping in an optical superlattice onto the libration of a planar rotor in electric fields

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2023
We show that two seemingly unrelated problems—the trapping of an atom in an optical superlattice (OSL) and the libration of a planar rigid rotor in combined electric and optical fields (PR) – have isomorphic Hamiltonians.

Frequency Ratio of 199Hg and 87Sr Optical Lattice Clocks beyond the SI Limit [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We report on a frequency ratio measurement of a Hg199-based optical lattice clock referencing a Sr87-based clock. Evaluations of lattice light shift, including atomic-motion-dependent shift, enable us to achieve a total systematic uncertainty of 7.2×10 ...

An accordion superlattice for controlling atom separation in optical potentials

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2023
We propose a method for separating trapped atoms in optical lattices by large distances. The key idea is the cyclic transfer of atoms between two lattices of variable spacing, known as accordion lattices, each covering at least a factor of two in lattice

Optical lattices with micromechanical mirrors [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review A, 2010
We investigate a setup where a cloud of atoms is trapped in an optical lattice potential of a standing wave laser field which is created by retro-reflection on a micro-membrane. The membrane vibrations itself realize a quantum mechanical degree of freedom.

Renormalisation of composite operators in lattice QCD: perturbative versus nonperturbative [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The perturbative and nonperturbative renormalisation of quark-antiquark operators in lattice QCD with two flavours of clover fermions is investigated within the research programme of the QCDSF collaboration.

A disordered insulator in an optical lattice [PDF]

open access: yesNature Physics, 2010
Disorder can profoundly affect the transport properties of a wide range of quantum materials. Presently, there is significant disagreement regarding the effect of disorder on transport in the disordered Bose-Hubbard (DBH) model, which is the paradigm used to theoretically study disorder in strongly correlated bosonic systems.

Using a GPS-Aided Inertial System for Coarse-Pointing of Free-Space Optical Communication Terminals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
In the Capanina project, it has been shown that it is possible to use solely GPS positions for coarse-pointing of a stratospheric free-space optical communication terminal.

Ultracold atoms trapped in optical lattice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
In this Thesis we study a paradigmatic experimental set up established for the study of quantum many-body system, namely ultracold atoms trapped in optical lattice.
