1D to 3D Crossover of a Spin-Imbalanced Fermi Gas

Melissa Revelle, Jacob A. Fry, Ben A. Olsen +1 more

We have characterized the one-dimensional (1D) to three-dimensional (3D) crossover of a two-component spin-imbalanced Fermi gas of ^{6}Li atoms in a 2D optical lattice by varying the lattice tunneling and the interactions. The gas phase separates, and we detect the phase boundaries using in situ imaging of the inhomogeneous density profiles. The locations of the phases are inverted in 1D as compared to 3D, thus providing a clear signature of the crossover. By scaling the tunneling rate t with respect to the pair binding energy ε_{B}, we observe a collapse of the data to a universal crossover point at a scaled tunneling value of t[over ˜]_{c}=0.025(7).

One-dimensional Few-boson Systems in Single- and Double-well Traps

Sascha Zöllner

This thesis studies the one-dimensional Bose gas in harmonic and double-well traps from a few-body perspective. The main emphasis is on the crossover from weak interactions to the fermionization limit of infinite repulsion, where the system maps to an ideal Fermi gas. To explore the structure as well as the quantum dynamics throughout that crossover, we both develop an exact-diagonalization approach and resort to a multi-configurational time-dependent method (MCTDH). The basic mechanism of the fermionization crossover for the ground state is shown to consist in the formation of a correlation hole in the two-body density, which culminates in a localization of the individual particles for strong repulsion. This is accompanied by a reduction of coherence. We demonstrate how the concrete pathway depends on the trap geometry, on the shape of the interaction, as well as on the atom number. By extension, we also investigate the lowest excitations, whose understanding is a base for studying the impact of the fermionization crossover on the tunneling dynamics in a double well. In symmetric wells, a pathway from single-particle to fragmented-pair tunneling shows up. By energetically offsetting the two wells, tunnel resonances become accessible, which may be used to extract single atoms.

The Search For FFLO in a Quasi-One-Dimensional Ultracold Fermi Gas

Jacob A. Fry

The Fulde-Ferrell Larkin-Ovchinnikov (FFLO) type superconductor is an exotic form of matter known as a supersolid because it simultaneously supports superfluid and magnetic order. In both condensed matter and ultracold atomic gases, this phase has yet to be conclusively observed despite long interest in both theory and experiment. In one-dimension (1D), unlike expectations for higher dimensions, the FFLO phase is found in a large region of the phase diagram [1]. The effect of quantum and thermal fluctuations, however, are expected to be reduced in higher dimensions. These considerations motivated the proposal to search for FFLO near the 1D-3D dimensional crossover [2], which we have identified and characterized [3]. We confine a spin-imbalanced Fermi gas of lithium 6 to an array of 1D tubes using a 2D optical lattice. We bring the system into the dimensional crossover by increasing the inter-tube tunneling rate and using a Feshbach resonance to tune interactions. The periodicity of these domain walls, which depends on the magnitude of the polarization, is a definitive signature of the FFLO phase. In this work, we develop new experimental and analytical methods to extract periodic signals that, if they indeed are domain walls, lay the foundation for full confirmation of the FFLO phase. [1] Y.
