玻色气体的磁性

物质磁性一直是凝聚态物理研究的重要课题.以往对磁性的探索主要是以费米子(局域或巡游的电子)为研究对象.由于传统的玻色系统液氦没有自旋,不表现磁性,玻色系统的磁性很少被关注.碱金属原子气体玻色-爱因斯坦凝聚的实现,在开辟了冷原子物理研究领域的同时,也打开了研究玻色系统磁性的大门.这是因为碱金属原子通常具有超精细结构,是旋量玻色气体,能够展示磁性.文章通过对比费米气体的相关结果,介绍了旋量玻色气体磁性的研究概况和最新进展,特别是铁磁性玻色气体的磁性相变以及在低温下铁磁性凝聚体的动力学特征.

Quantum dynamics of an impurity-doped Bose-Einstein condensate system

We study the quantum dynamics of an impurity-doped Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC) system. We show how to generate the macroscopic quantum superposition states (MQSSs) of the BEC by the use of projective measurements on impurity atoms. It is found that the nonclassicality of MQSSs can be manipulated by changing the number of the impurities and their interaction with the BEC. It is shown that the BEC matter-wave field exhibits a collapse and revival phenomenon which reveals the quantum nature of the BEC matter-wave field. We investigate the micro-macro entanglement between the impurities and the BEC, and find enhancement of the micro-macro entanglement induced by the initial quantum coherence of the impurity atoms.     

Entanglement and localization of a two-mode Bose-Einstein condensate

A simple second quantization model is used to describe a two-mode Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC), which can be written in terms of the generators of a SU(2) algebra with three parameters. We study the behavior of the entanglement entropy and localization of the system in the parameter space of the model. The phase transitions in the parameter space are determined by means of the coherent state formalism and the catastrophe theory, which besides let us get the best variational state that reproduces the ground state energy. This semiclassical method let us organize the energy spectrum in regions where there are crossings and anticrossings. The ground state of the two-mode BEC, depending on the values of the interaction strengths, is dominated by a single Dicke state, a spin collective coherent state, or a superposition of two spin collective coherent states. The entanglement entropy is determined for two recently proposed partitions of the two-mode BEC that are called separation by boxes and separation by modes of the atoms. The entanglement entropy in the boxes partition is strongly correlated to the properties of localization in phase space of the model, which is given by the evaluation of the second moment of the Husimi function. To compare the fitness of the trial wavefunction its overlap with the exact quantum solution is evaluated. The entanglement entropy for both partitions, the overlap and localization properties of the system get singular values along the separatrix of the two-mode BEC, which indicates the phase transitions which remain in the thermodynamical limit, in the parameter space.     

Anderson localization of elementary excitations in a one-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensate

We study the elementary excitations of a transversely confined Bose-Einstein condensate in presence of a weak axial random potential. We determine the localization length (i) in the hydrodynamical low energy regime, for a domain of linear densities ranging from the Tonks-Girardeau to the transverse Thomas-Fermi regime, in the case of a white noise potential and (ii) for all the range of energies, in the “one-dimensional mean field regime”, in the case where the randomness is induced by a series of randomly placed point-like impurities. We discuss our results in view of recent experiments in elongated BEC systems.     

光腔中两组分玻色-爱因斯坦凝聚体的受激辐射特性和量子相变

研究了单模光腔中两组分玻色-爱因斯坦凝聚的基态性质和相关的量子相变.通过利用自旋相干态变换将等效赝自旋哈密顿算符对角化并求得基态能量泛函.基态能量泛函对其经典场变量进行变分并取极小值,得到光子数解和相边界曲线.通过稳定性讨论发现系统除了出现正常相和超辐射相之外,还得到了多稳的宏观量子态;受激辐射来自于原子数反转的集体态,单组分的Dicke系统中并没有此现象;受激辐射只能从一组分的原子中产生,而另外的仍保持在普通超辐射状态.通过调整相关的原子-场耦合强度和频率失谐,超辐射和受激辐射态的顺序可以在原子的两个组分之间互换.     

Vortex-antivortex pair in a Bose-Einstein condensate

Presented is a type-II quantum algorithm for superfluid dynamics, used to numerically predict solutions of the GP equation for a complex scalar field (spinless bosons) in φ⁴ theory. The GP equation is a long wavelength effective field theory of a microscopic quantum lattice gas with nonlinear state reduction. The quantum lattice gas algorithm for modeling the dynamics of the one-body BEC state in 3+1 dimensions is presented. To demonstrate the method's strength as a computational physics tool, a difficult situation of filamentary singularities is simulated, the dynamics of solitary vortex-antivortex pairs, which are a basic building block of morphologies of quantum turbulence.     

Remote entanglement between a single atom and a Bose-Einstein condensate

Entanglement between stationary systems at remote locations is a key resource for quantum networks. We report on the experimental generation of remote entanglement between a single atom inside an optical cavity and a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC). To produce this, a single photon is created in the atom-cavity system, thereby generating atom-photon entanglement. The photon is transported to the BEC and converted into a collective excitation in the BEC, thus establishing matter-matter entanglement. After a variable delay, this entanglement is converted into photon-photon entanglement. The matter-matter entanglement lifetime of 100 μs exceeds the photon duration by 2 orders of magnitude. The total fidelity of all concatenated operations is 95%. This hybrid system opens up promising perspectives in the field of quantum information.
