Abstract

We report on the first experimental observation of Bloch Oscillations of nonlocal quantum states. Our integrated photonic circuit could serve as a platform for quantum simulation of the dynamics of bosonic, anyonic and fermionic particles.

Experimental observation of N00N state Bloch oscillations

Maxime Lebugle, Markus Gräfe, René Heilmann +3 more

Bloch oscillations of quantum particles manifest themselves as periodic spreading and relocalization of the associated wave functions when traversing lattice potentials subject to external gradient forces. Albeit this phenomenon is deeply rooted into the very foundations of quantum mechanics, all experimental observations so far have only contemplated dynamics of one and two particles initially prepared in separable local states. Evidently, a more general description of genuinely quantum Bloch oscillations will be achieved on excitation of a Bloch oscillator by nonlocal states. Here we report the observation of Bloch oscillations of two-particle N00N states, and discuss the nonlocality on the ground of Bell-like inequalities. The time evolution of two-photon N00N states in Bloch oscillators, whether symmetric, antisymmetric or partially symmetric, reveals transitions from particle antibunching to bunching. Consequently, the initial states can be tailored to produce spatial correlations akin to those of bosons, fermions and anyons, presenting potential applications in photonic quantum simulation.

Observation of anyonic Bloch oscillations

Weixuan Zhang, Hao Yuan, Haiteng Wang +5 more

Bloch oscillations are exotic phenomena describing the periodic motion of a wave packet subjected to the external force in a lattice, where the system possessing single- or multipleparticles could exhibit distinct oscillation behaviors. In particular, it has been pointed out that quantum statistics could dramatically affected the Bloch oscillation even in the absence of particle interactions, where the oscillation frequency of two pseudofermions with the anyonic statistical angle being pi becomes half of that for two bosons. However, these statisticdependent Bloch oscillations have never been observed in experiments up to now. Here, we report the first experimental simulation of anyonic Bloch oscillations using electric circuits. By mapping eigenstates of two anyons to modes of designed circuit simulators, the Bloch oscillation of two bosons and two pseudofermions are verified by measuring the voltage dynamics. It is found that the oscillation period in the two-boson simulator is almost twice of that in the two-pseudofermion simulator, which is consistent with the theoretical prediction. Our proposal provides a flexible platform to investigate and visualize many interesting phenomena related to particle statistics, and could have potential applications in the field of the novelty signal control.
