Magnetic Feshbach resonances between atoms in S2 and P03 states: Mechanisms and dependence on atomic properties

Bijit Mukherjee, Matthew D. Frye, Jeremy M. Hutson

Magnetically tunable Feshbach resonances exist in ultracold collisions between atoms in $^{2}\mathrm{S}$ and ${}^{3}{\mathrm{P}}_{0}$ states, such as an alkali-metal atom colliding with Yb or Sr in a clock state. We investigate the mechanisms of these resonances and identify the terms in the collision Hamiltonian responsible for them. They involve indirect coupling between the open and closed channels, via intermediate channels involving atoms in ${}^{3}{\mathrm{P}}_{1}$ states. The resonance widths are generally proportional to the square of the magnetic field and are strongly enhanced when the magnitude of the background scattering length is large. For any given pair of atoms, the scattering length can be tuned discretely by choosing different isotopes of the ${}^{3}{\mathrm{P}}_{0}$ atom. For each combination of an alkali-metal atom and either Yb or Sr, we consider the prospects of finding an isotopic combination that has both a large background scattering length and resonances at a high but experimentally accessible field. We conclude that $^{87}\mathrm{Rb}+\mathrm{Yb}$, $\mathrm{Cs}+\mathrm{Yb}$, and $^{85}\mathrm{Rb}+\mathrm{Sr}$ are particularly promising combinations.

Magnetically tunable Feshbach resonances in Li + Yb( 3PJ )

Maykel Leonardo González-Martínez, Jeremy M. Hutson

We have investigated magnetically tunable Feshbach resonances arising from the interaction of Li(${}^{2}S$) with metastable Yb(${}^{3}{P}_{2}$) and (${}^{3}{P}_{0}$). For Yb(${}^{3}{P}_{2}$), all the resonance features are strongly suppressed by inelastic collisions that produce Yb in its lower-lying ${}^{3}{P}_{1}$ and ${}^{3}{P}_{0}$ states. For Yb(${}^{3}{P}_{0}$), sharp resonances exist but they are extremely narrow (widths less than 1 mG).

Nonreciprocal Control of the Goos--Hänchen Shift via the Barnett Effect in Cavity Magnomechanics

Shah Fahad, Gao Xianlong

We propose a theoretical scheme for realizing a tunable nonreciprocal Goos-Hänchen shift (GHS) in a hybrid cavity magnomechanical system. The setup consists of a rotating yttrium iron garnet sphere embedded in a microwave cavity, with magnetic-dipole and magnetostrictive interactions mediating magnon-photon and magnon-phonon couplings, respectively. Owing to the Barnett effect, the magnon frequency acquires a rotation-induced shift whose sign can be reversed by changing the direction of the bias magnetic field. We show that the output probe spectrum exhibits a Fano resonance, while the associated GHS responds asymmetrically to opposite field directions, providing a controllable mechanism for nonreciprocal beam shifts. The magnon-photon and magnon-phonon interactions are found to affect the GHS in opposite ways, while the cavity length offers an additional degree of tunability. These results provide a route toward magnetically reconfigurable microwave photonic devices and sensitive detection of Barnett-induced effective fields.

Optomechanical-interface-induced strong spin-magnon coupling

Wei Xiong, Mingfeng Wang, Guo-Qiang Zhang +1 more

Strong long-distance spin-magnon coupling is essential for solid-state quantum information processing and single-qubit manipulation. Here, we propose an approach to realize strong spin-magnon coupling in a hybrid optomechanical cavity-spin-magnon system, where the optomechanical system, consisting of two cavities coupled to a common high-frequency mechanical resonator, acts as quantum interface. By eliminating the mechanical mode, position-position coupling and two-mode squeezing of two cavities are induced. In the squeezing representation, the spin-photon, magnon-photon, and photon-photon coupling strengths are exponentially amplified, thus lower- and upper-branch polaritons (LBP and UBP) are generated by strongly coupled squeezed modes of two cavities. Utilizing the critical property of the LBP, the coupling between the spin qubit (magnon) and LBP is greatly enhanced, while the coupling between the spin qubit (magnon) and UBP is fully suppressed. In the dispersive regime, strong and tunable spin-magnon coupling is induced by the virtual LBP, allowing quantum state exchange between them. Our proposal provides a promising platform to construct magnon-based hybrid systems and realize solid-state quantum information processing with optomechanical interfaces.

Magnetically tunable Feshbach resonances exist in ultracold collisions between atoms in 2S^{2}\mathrm{S}2S and 3P0{}^{3}{\mathrm{P}}_{0}3P0​ states, such as an alkali-metal atom colliding with Yb or Sr in a clock state. We investigate the mechanisms of these resonances and identify the terms in the collision Hamiltonian responsible for them. They involve indirect coupling between the open and closed channels, via intermediate channels involving atoms in 3P1{}^{3}{\mathrm{P}}_{1}3P1​ states. The resonance widths are generally proportional to the square of the magnetic field and are strongly enhanced when the magnitude of the background scattering length is large. For any given pair of atoms, the scattering length can be tuned discretely by choosing different isotopes of the 3P0{}^{3}{\mathrm{P}}_{0}3P0​ atom. For each combination of an alkali-metal atom and either Yb or Sr, we consider the prospects of finding an isotopic combination that has both a large background scattering length and resonances at a high but experimentally accessible field.
