Understanding the intricate properties of materials such as high-temperature superconductors and other strongly correlated systems has long been a...

In a research work recently published in Physical Review Letters, we show that the dark state concept, originally developed in quantum optics...

Feshbach molecules are pairs of atoms in the last bound state below the dissociation limit. They can be formed with the help of a Feshbach resonance...

Following Franck Wilczek’s proposal of a new dynamical phase dubbed time crystal, discrete or Floquet time crystals have been observed in periodically...

A periodically driven open three-level Dicke model is realized by resonantly shaking the pump field in an atom-cavity system. As an unambiguous...

Ultracold bosonic atoms filled into the second Bloch band of a hexagonal optical lattice made of three interfering laser beams can form intriguing...

For the first time, a fermionic quantum gas of neutral atoms is loaded to selected higher Bloch bands of an optical lattice. Extreme band lifetimes...

Similarly, as the spontaneous breaking of translation symmetry can lead to crystallisation in space, a related phenomenon can occur with respect to...

Single atoms prepared in an excited state randomly return to the ground state with a probability approaching unity with exponential time dependence...
