Atomic diffusion in an optical quasicrystal with five-fold symmetry

Luca Guidoni, B. Dépret, A. di Stefano +1 more

We present experimental and numerical studies of the atomic motion in an optical lattice displaying a fivefold rotational symmetry. The atomic transport has been investigated by measuring the time evolution of the size of the atomic cloud. The experimental results are compared to those of a semiclassical Monte Carlo simulation of the atomic motion in a three-dimensional optical quasicrystal. A good agreement has been obtained on the anisotropy of the diffusive expansion of the cloud.

Quasiperiodic Optical Lattices

Luca Guidoni, C. Triché, Philippe Verkerk +1 more

We study the kinetic temperature and the localization of cesium atoms in a three dimensional quasiperiodic optical potential created by the interference of five or six laser beams. Bragg scattering experiments show evidence of a quasiperiodic order for the atomic density. Temperature measurements are consistent with the topological invariance of the optical potential under phase variations of the laser beams. Numerical semiclassical Monte Carlo simulations show results in reasonable agreement with the experimental observations.
