Encoding and decoding phase information in high- n circular wave packets

S. Yoshida, Carlos O Reinhold, Joachim Burgdörfer +2 more

We demonstrate theoretically and experimentally the extraction of detailed information on the density matrix of very-high-$n$ ($>300)$ near-circular Rydberg wave packets through Fourier analysis of the quantum beat and quantum revival signals. The remarkably long coherence times associated with circular wave packets facilitate the preservation and read-out of phase information encoded in this matrix. We illustrate the power of the method by determining the angular localization of the components of a wave packet.

Realization of Localized Bohr-Like Wave Packets

J. J. Mestayer, B. Wyker, J. C. Lancaster +4 more

We demonstrate a protocol to create localized wave packets in very-high-n Rydberg states which travel in nearly circular orbits around the nucleus. Although these wave packets slowly dephase and eventually lose their localization, their motion can be monitored over several orbital periods. These wave packets represent the closest analog yet achieved to the original Bohr model of the hydrogen atom, i.e., an electron in a circular classical orbit around the nucleus. The possible extension of the approach to create "planetary atoms" in highly correlated stable multiply excited states is discussed.
