In the last two decades, quantum simulators based on ultracold atoms in optical lattices have successfully explored many different phenomena encountered in strongly correlated condensed matter systems. The latest addition to the quantum simulation toolbox includes quantum gas microscopes with fermionic alkali metal atoms. On the other hand, optical lattice clocks with alkaline earth atoms achieve relative frequency precisions reaching below the 10−18 level.
Here we report on the construction of a new quantum gas microscope with Sr atoms prepared in large-mode-volume state-dependent lattices. Our experiment will thus combine the advantages of quantum gas microscopes with the precision control over the internal degrees of freedom enabled by optical lattice clock techniques. With this experimental platform we aim to extend the capabilities of quantum simulators to simulate strongly coupled light-matter interfaces that are challenging or unattainable in real systems.
