SYRY: Symposium Rydberg Physics in Single-Atom Trap Arrays

SYRY 2: Rydberg Physics in Single-Atom Trap Arrays 1

SYRY 2.1: Invited Talk

Wednesday, March 16, 2022, 10:30–11:00, Audimax

Many-body physics with arrays of Rydberg atoms in resonant interaction — •Antoine Browaeys — Institut d'Optique, 2 av Augustin Fresnel, 91120 Palaiseau France

This talk will present our recent work on the quantum simulation of spin Hamiltonians using arrays of Rydberg atoms in resonant, exchange interaction. Combined with a microwave driving between two Rydberg states, we engineer XXZ models with various anisotropies. We illustrate this engineering by studying the dynamics of the system in 2D arrays and in small 1D chain. Recently we have started to explore the possibility of realizing a Dirac spin-liquid on a Kagome lattice. The talk will present the status of this experiment. I will also mention the experimental improvements we performed in the recent years such as the trapping of atoms in a cryogenic environment.
