A methodology to calculate generalized coherent states for a periodically driven system is presented. We study wave packets constructed as a linear combination of suitable Floquet states of the three-dimensional Rydberg atom in a microwave field. The driven coherent states show classical space localization, spreading, and revivals and remain localized along the classical trajectory. The microwave strength and frequency have a great effect in the localization of Floquet states, since quasienergy avoided crossings produce delocalization of the Floquet states, showing that tuning of the parameters is very important. Using wavelet-based time-frequency analysis, the classical phase-space structure is determined, which allows us to show that the driven coherent state is located in a large regular region in which the $z$ coordinate is in resonance with the external field. The expectation values of the wave packet show that the driven coherent state evolves along the classical trajectory.A methodology to calculate generalized coherent states for a periodically driven system is presented.

Periodically Driven Array of Single Rydberg Atoms

Sagarika Basak, Yashwant Chougale, Rejish Nath

An array of single Rydberg atoms driven by a temporally modulated atom-field detuning is studied. The periodic modulation effectively modifies the Rabi coupling, leading to unprecedented dynamics in the presence of Rydberg-Rydberg interactions, in particular, blockade enhancement, antiblockades, and state-dependent population trapping. Interestingly, the Schrieffer-Wolf transformation reveals a fundamental process in Rydberg gases, correlated Rabi coupling, which stems from the extended nature of the Rydberg-Rydberg interactions. Also, the correlated coupling provides an alternative depiction for the Rydberg blockade, exhibiting a nontrivial behavior in the presence of periodic modulation. The dynamical localization of a many-body configuration in a driven Rydberg lattice is discussed.An array of single Rydberg atoms driven by a temporally modulated atom-field detuning is studied.

Population trapping in a pair of periodically driven Rydberg atoms

S. Kumar Mallavarapu, Ankita Niranjan, Weibin Li +2 more

We study the population trapping extensively in a periodically driven Rydberg pair. The periodic modulation of the atom-light detuning effectively suppresses the Rabi couplings and, together with Rydberg-Rydberg interactions, leads to the state-dependent population trapping. We identify a simple yet general scheme to determine population trapping regions using driving-induced resonances, the Floquet spectrum, and the inverse participation ratio. Contrary to the single-atom case, we show that the population trapping in the two-atom setup may not necessarily be associated with level crossings in the Floquet spectrum. Further, we discuss under what criteria population trapping can be related to dynamical stabilization, taking specific and experimentally relevant initial states, which include both product and the maximally entangled Bell states. The behavior of the entangled states is further characterized by the bipartite entanglement entropy.We study the population trapping extensively in a periodically driven Rydberg pair.
