Phase-imprinting of Bose-Einstein condensates with Rydberg impurities (2015)
Journal Article
Mukherjee, R., Ates, C., Li, W., & Wüster, S. (2015). Phase-imprinting of Bose-Einstein condensates with Rydberg impurities. Physical Review Letters, 115(4), 1-6. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.115.040401

We show how the phase profile of Bose-Einstein condensates can be engineered through its in- teraction with localized Rydberg excitations. The interaction is made controllable and long-range by off-resonantly coupling the condensate to another Rydber...

Spin correlations as a probe of quantum synchronization in trapped ion phonon-lasers (2015)
Journal Article
Hush, M. R., Li, W., Genway, S., Lesanovsky, I., & Armour, A. (2015). Spin correlations as a probe of quantum synchronization in trapped ion phonon-lasers. Physical Review A, 91, Article 061401. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevA.91.061401

We investigate quantum synchronization theoretically in a system consisting of two cold ions in microtraps. The ions' motion is damped by a standing-wave laser whilst also being driven by a blue-detuned laser which results in self-oscillation. Workin...

Electromagnetically induced transparency in an entangled medium (2014)
Journal Article
Li, W., Viscor, D., Hofferberth, S., & Lesanovsky, I. (2014). Electromagnetically induced transparency in an entangled medium. Physical Review Letters, 112(24), https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.112.243601

We theoretically investigate light propagation and electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in a quasi one-dimensional gas in which atoms interact strongly via exchange interactions. We focus on the case in which the gas is initially prepared i... Read More about Electromagnetically induced transparency in an entangled medium.

Generalized Dicke nonequilibrium dynamics in trapped ions (2014)
Journal Article
Genway, S., Li, W., Ates, C., Lanyon, B. P., & Lesanovsky, I. (2014). Generalized Dicke nonequilibrium dynamics in trapped ions. Physical Review Letters, 112(2), https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.112.023603

We explore trapped ions as a setting to investigate nonequilibrium phases in a generalized Dicke model of dissipative spins coupled to phonon modes. We find a rich dynamical phase diagram including superradiantlike regimes, dynamical phase coexistenc... Read More about Generalized Dicke nonequilibrium dynamics in trapped ions.

Amplifying single impurities immersed in a gas of ultracold atoms (2011)
Journal Article
Olmos, B., Li, W., Hofferberth, S., & Lesanovsky, I. (2011). Amplifying single impurities immersed in a gas of ultracold atoms. Physical Review A, 84(4), Article 041607(R). https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevA.84.041607

We present a method for amplifying a single or scattered impurities immersed in a background gas of ultracold atoms so that they can be optically imaged and spatially resolved. Our approach relies on a Raman transfer between two stable atomic hyperfi... Read More about Amplifying single impurities immersed in a gas of ultracold atoms.
