Modification of spin mixing of spinor BEC by cavity QED coupling

Ma Luo, Bao Cheng-guang, Zhibing Li

Dressed states of spinor Bose-Einstein condensates of spin-1 atoms coupling with optical cavity modes with far off resonance frequency are investigated. The exact solution of time evolution of population of spin component is derived, and the numerical result shows that the evolution is different from spin mixing without the coupling. Due to the coupling with the atoms, the photon state also evolute to different optical cavity modes.

Dark states of dressed Bose-Einstein condensates

E. S. Lee, Carsten Geckeler, J. Heurich +4 more

We combine the ideas of dressed Bose-Einstein condensates, where an intracavity optical field allows one to design coupled, multicomponent condensates, and of dark states of quantum systems, to generate a full quantum entanglement between two matter waves and two optical waves. While the matter waves are macroscopically populated, the two optical modes share a single photon. As such, this system offers a way to influence the behavior of a macroscopic quantum system via a microscopic ``knob.''

Probing the quantum ground state of a spin-1 Bose-Einstein condensate with cavity transmission spectra

J. M. Zhang, Shuai Cui, Hui Jing +2 more

We propose to probe the quantum ground state of a spin-1 Bose-Einstein condensate with the transmission spectra of an optical cavity. By choosing a circularly polarized cavity mode with an appropriate frequency, we can realize coupling between the cavity mode and the magnetization of the condensate. The cavity transmission spectra then contain information of the magnetization statistics of the condensate and thus can be used to distinguish the ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic quantum ground states. This technique may also be useful for continuous observation of the spin dynamics of a spinor Bose-Einstein condensate.

Observation of Metastable States in Spinor Bose-Einstein Condensates

H.‐J. Miesner, Dan Stamper-Kurn, J. Stenger +3 more

Bose-Einstein condensates have been prepared in long-lived metastable excited states. Two complementary types of metastable states were observed. The first is due to the immiscibility of multiple components in the condensate, and the second to local suppression of spin-relaxation collisions. Relaxation via recondensation of noncondensed atoms, spin relaxation, and quantum tunneling was observed. These experiments were done with $F\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}=\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}1$ spinor Bose-Einstein condensates of sodium confined in an optical dipole trap.

Spin dynamics and domain formation of a spinor Bose-Einstein condensate in an optical cavity

Lu Zhou, Han Pu, Hong Yuan Ling +2 more

We consider a ferromagnetic spin-1 Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) dispersively coupled to a unidirectional ring cavity. We show that the ability of the cavity to modify, in a highly nonlinear fashion, matter-wave phase shifts adds an additional dimension to the study of spinor condensates. In addition to demonstrating strong matter-wave bistability as in our earlier publication [L. Zhou et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 103, 160403 (2009)], we show that the interplay between atomic and cavity fields can greatly enrich both the physics of critical slowing down in spin-mixing dynamics and the physics of spin-domain formation in spinor condensates.

Dark Solitons in F=1 Spinor Bose–Einstein Condensate

Masaru Uchiyama, Jun’ichi Ieda, Miki Wadati

We study dark soliton solutions of a multi-component Gross--Pitaevskii equation for hyperfine spin F=1 spinor Bose--Einstein condensate. The interactions are supposed to be inter-atomic repulsive and anti-ferromagnetic ones of equal magnitude. The solutions are obtained from those of an integrable $2\times 2$ matrix nonlinear Schrödinger equation with nonvanishing boundary conditions. We investigate the one-soliton and two-soliton solutions in detail. One-soliton is classified into two kinds. The ferromagnetic state has wavefunctions of domain-wall shape and its total spin is nonzero. The polar state provides a hole soliton and its total spin is zero. These two states are selected by choosing the type of the boundary conditions. In two-soliton collisions, we observe the spin-mixing or spin-transfer. It is found that, as "magnetic" carriers, solitons in the ferromagnetic state are operative for the spin-mixing while those in the polar are passive.
