Chaotic filtering of moving atoms in pulsed optical lattices

Thibaut Jonckheere, M. R. Isherwood, T. S. Monteiro

We propose a mechanism for a velocity-selective device, which exploits the fundamental phenomenon of dynamical localization. It would allow packets of cold atoms travelling through a pulsed optical lattice in one direction to pass undisturbed, while dispersing atoms travelling in the opposite direction. This mechanism is based on a chaotic diffusion process, with a momentum-dependent diffusion coefficient. We analyse this classical effect, and we show that it is enhanced by dynamical localization.

Chaotic Filtering of Moving Atoms in Pulsed Optical Lattices by Control of Dynamical Localization

Thibaut Jonckheere, M. R. Isherwood, T. S. Monteiro

We propose a mechanism for a velocity-selective device which would allow packets of cold atoms traveling in one direction through a pulsed optical lattice to pass undisturbed, while dispersing atoms traveling in the opposite direction. The mechanism is generic and straightforward: for a simple quantum kicked rotor pulsed with unequal periods, the quantum suppression of momentum diffusion (dynamical localization) yields momentum localization lengths L which are no longer isotropic, as in the standard case, but vary smoothly and controllably with initial momentum.
