From fundamental studies of light-matter interaction to applications in quantum networking and sensing, cavity electrodynamics (QED) provides a toolbox control interactions between atoms photons. The coherence is determined by the single-pass atomic absorption number photon round-trips. Reducing loss has enabled resonators supporting 1 million roundtrips but with limited material choices increased alignment sensitivity. Here, we present high–numerical aperture, lens-based resonator that...
Abstract We show that ultracold fermions in an artificial magnetic field open up a new window to the physics of spinful fractional quantum Hall (FQH) effect. numerically study lowest energy states strongly interacting few-fermion systems rapidly rotating optical microtraps. find skyrmion-like ground with locally ferromagnetic, long-range spin textures emerge. To realize such experimentally, microtraps higher-order angular momentum components may be used prepare fermionic particles Landau...
Optical cavities are an enabling technology of modern quantum science: from their essential role in the operation lasers, to applications as fly-wheels atomic clocks and interaction-enhancing components optics experiments, developing a quantitative understanding mode-shapes energies optical has been crucial for growth field. Nonetheless, standard treatment using paraxial, quadratic fails capture influence aberrations present with high finesse, small waist, and/or many degenerate modes. In...
Optical cavities have found widespread use in interfacing to quantum emitters. Concerns about backreflection and resulting loss, however, largely prevented the placement of optics such as lenses or modulators within high-finesse cavities. In this work, we demonstrate a million-fold suppression backreflections from twisted optical cavity. We achieve by quantitatively exploring backscatter Fabry-P\'erot resonators, separating effect into three physical sectors: polarization, mode envelope...
Light is an excellent medium for both classical and quantum information transmission due to its speed, manipulability, abundant degrees of freedom into which encode information. Recently, space-division multiplexing has gained attention as a means substantially increase the rate transfer by utilizing sets infinite-dimensional propagation eigenmodes such Laguerre-Gaussian "donut" modes. Encoding in these high-dimensional spaces necessitates devices capable manipulating photonic with high...
