实验实现费米子二维人工自旋轨道耦合
发布者: admin 发布时间:2016-04-01
近日,山西大学量子光学与光量子器件国家重点实验室光电研究所张靖教授研究小组在《Nature Physics》上发表论文《人造二维自旋轨道耦合在超冷费米气体中的实验实现》(Experimental realization of two-dimensional synthetic spin-orbit coupling in ultracold Fermi gases),引起国内外广泛关注。 Abstract: Spin–orbit coupling (SOC) is central to many physical phenomena, including fine structures of atomic spectra and topological phases in ultracold atoms.Whereas, in general,SOCis fixed in a system, laser–atom interaction provides a means to create and control synthetic SOC in ultracold atoms. Despite significant experimental progress in this area, two-dimensional (2D) synthetic SOC, which is crucial for exploring two- and threedimensional topological phases, is lacking. Here, we report the experimental realization of 2D SOC in ultracold 40K Fermi gases using three lasers, each of which dresses one atomic hyperfine spin state. Through spin-injection radiofrequency(rf) spectroscopy, we probe the spin-resolved energy dispersions of the dressed atoms, and observe a highly controllable Dirac point created by the 2D SOC. These results constitute a step towards the realization of new topological states of matter. |
