Quantum matter built from nanoscopic lattices of atoms and photons

Harry J. Kimble

Published Jan 1, 2019• 6 citations
Publisher

Abstract

As reviewed in Reference [1], new paradigms for optical physics emerge with lattices of atoms trapped in one and two-dimensional photonic crystals. Such systems provide new tools for quantum phases of light and matter, scalable quantum networks, and quantum metrology.

Atom-Light Interactions in Photonic Crystals

Jeff Kimble

New paradigms for strong atom-photon interactions would emerge by trapping arrays of atoms in one and two-dimensional photonic crystals. Bringing this future to fruition requires the creation of an interdisciplinary "toolkit" for the control, manipulation, and interaction of atoms and photons with a complexity and scalability not currently possible.

Strong Atom-Light Interactions in Photonic Crystals

Jeff Kimble

New paradigms for optical physics emerge with lattices of atoms trapped in one and two-dimensional photonic crystals [1-4]. Exemplary experimental platforms include photonic crystal waveguides [5-7] and cavities [8, 9]. Owing to their small optical loss and tight field confinement, these nanoscale dielectric devices are capable of mediating long-range atom-atom interactions using photons propagating in their guided modes. In a complimentary fashion, long-range interactions between photons can be mediated by an underlying lattice of atoms. Such systems have the potential to provide new tools for scalable quantum networks, quantum phases of light and matter, and quantum metrology. However, bringing this future of atom nanophotonics to fruition requires the creation of an interdisciplinary toolkit for the control, manipulation, and interaction of atoms and photons with a complexity and scalability not currently possible. I will give an overview of the theoretical prospects for new physics and review experimental progress in this nascent field at the interfaces of nano-photonics, atomic physics, and quantum optics.

Optical lattices

Markus Greiner, Simon Fölling

Optical lattices have rapidly become a favoured tool of atomic and condensed-matter physicists. These crystals made of light can be used to trap atoms at very low temperatures, creating a workshop in which to pore over and tinker with fundamental properties of matter.
