Molecular Physics, 2005 This paper discusses the nature of heavy Rydberg states, i.e. quantum states in molecular systems that are bound by the almost pure Coulomb potential between pairs of ions. A theoretical framework is developed in terms of mass-scaling laws for heavy Rydberg systems of certain reduced mass, so that the physics of electronic Rydberg states can be ...

Dynamical crystal creation with polar molecules or Rydberg atoms in optical lattices [PDF]
, 2010 We investigate the dynamical formation of crystalline states with systems of polar molecules or Rydberg atoms loaded into a deep optical lattice. External fields in these systems can be used to couple the atoms or molecules between two internal states ...

Observation of second- and higher-order electric quadrupole interactions with an atomic ion
Physical Review Research, 2021 We observe an atomic ion's response to an electric quadrupole field to second and higher orders; this arises from the ion's electric quadrupole polarizability and hyperpolarizabilities.

Rydberg States of Triatomic Hydrogen and Deuterium [PDF]
The Journal of Physical Chemistry A, 2013 The triatomic hydrogen ion (H$_3^+$) has spurred tremendous interest in astrophysics in recent decades, and Rydberg states of H$_3$ have also maintained an important role for understanding H$_3^+$ experiments. In a previous study [J. Chem. Phys. \textbf{133}, 234302 (2010)], radiative transitions between neutral H$_3$ Rydberg states were calculated at ...

Coherent control of Rydberg states in silicon [PDF]
Nature, 2010 We demonstrate coherent control of donor wavefunctions in phosphorous-doped silicon. Our experiments take advantage of a free electron laser to stimulate and observe photon echoes from, and Rabi oscillations between the ground and first excited state of P donors in Si.

Cooperative Optical Non-linearity in a blockaded Rydberg Ensemble [PDF]
, 2011 This thesis describes the observation of a novel optical non-linearity mediated by the dipole-dipole interactions in a cold gas of Rydberg atoms. Electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) is used to map the strong dipolar interactions onto an ...

Non-adiabatic quantum state preparation and quantum state transport in chains of Rydberg atoms
New Journal of Physics, 2017 Motivated by recent progress in the experimental manipulation of cold atoms in optical lattices, we study three different protocols for non-adiabatic quantum state preparation and state transport in chains of Rydberg atoms.

New Journal of Physics, 2023 We present a method for measuring the polarizability of Rydberg ions confined in the harmonic potential of a Paul trap. For a highly excited electronic state, the coupling between the electronic wave function and the trapping field modifies the ...
